About the host:
Kia ora, I’m Marissa Lewis.
I’m a proud Māori woman, Māmā, and the CEO of Marissa Lewis International. My whakapapa grounds me, my whānau keep me steady, and my mahi is about weaving wisdom, strategy, and presence so women can rise without leaving themselves behind.
With more than 20 years in sales, marketing, and communications, and over a decade as a coach, speaker, and retreat facilitator.
I’ve guided wāhine and women globally to step into their voice, their mana, and their leadership.
I’ve trained corporate teams, mentored entrepreneurs, and held sacred space for women to reconnect with the power they’ve always carried.
Because here’s the truth: no matter where you are from, you hold a world of wisdom from your ancestors. When you remember that — when you align your business, your confidence, and your leadership with that inheritance, you stop minimising yourself and start creating the legacy you were made for.
I work with ambitious women in their 40s and 50s who have poured decades into careers, families, and communities, and are now ready to claim their voice, their authority, and their next chapter. Through my Ultimate Confidence Academy™, Connect Retreat™, and one-on-one mentoring, I help women align their vision with their values and lead with both heart and authority.
For me, this isn’t just business. It’s a mission and a legacy: to stand alongside women who are ready to rise into their brilliance, design lives and businesses that feel wildly fulfilling, and create ripples of impact for generations to come.
If you’re ready to move from overlooked to unforgettable, from baseline to brilliant, I’m here to walk that journey with you.

Episode 70: Leading Lighter: The Q4 Reset Every Woman in Leadership Needs Because your next level won’t come from holding tighter.
Kia ora beautiful,
Welcome back to Grace Through the Fire.
This episode is one every woman in leadership needs to hear as we move into Q4 that season where we start gripping tighter to goals, timelines, and expectations. But here’s the truth, darling: control might feel safe, yet real safety comes when you create space to breathe again.
In this kōrero, we talk about what happens when you loosen your grip not to give up, but to come home to yourself.
We unpack what it means to lead from presence instead of pressure, to trust your intuition again, and to rebuild confidence in your voice.
This episode is your reminder that less control doesn’t mean less success it means more clarity, more energy, and more peace as you step into your next season.
If you’ve been feeling stretched or craving a reset, this is your sign to pause, soften, and realign with what truly matters.
November intake is now open you can book a $99 Clarity Call to unwind, reset, and map out your next steps before the year ends.
And if you’re ready to finish this year strong (but without the hustle), check out the Connect Retreat™ details in the show notes your invitation to enter 2026 restored, grounded, and deeply connected to your purpose.
Ngā mihi nui,
Riss xx
