I've been toiling at my craft for more than 12 years, as a Chinese medicine practitioner. I have always worked 1:1, but trying to define a niche that could translate online. Its a challenge to do acupuncture remotely! At first, I wanted to offer a weight-loss program online, but judging by my competition, I felt intimidated. I honestly felt stuck. Each week I would listen into my pod calls, and did not feel like I could contribute. I felt lost, and because of COVID, my patient load dropped off again. Feeling so much self doubt, I considered just getting a job, and looked up remote job listings with dread and defeat. Then I got COVID. All my holiday plans had to be cancelled. I quarantined with my boyfriend for 10 days. Recovery was not easy, but I had my herbal training, and at least was able to keep us away from the hospital. Its still a challenge to concentrate. But many years of practice, has helped me retain clients. One of my patients, ever so grateful to be free from hot flashes, came back when they started up again after missing treatment for a month. Viola, I realized my superpower, alleviating menopausal symptoms. Most women will experience menopause, and may not realize there are safe and effective ways to transition without suffering. More importantly, I want to help women celebrate these years. I'm starting over, and have to review the EPM classes, but I am more confident about this new direction. This msy hsve helped me attract my ideal client, just last week.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
Aligning myself with my calling, is helping me regain confidence. I am excited to realign my efforts, knowing there is a large motivated audience.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
Yet to be seen, but I sm grateful for the community.
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
There are lots of marketing strategies, and when I am authentic in my message, I can succeed.
What is now possible for you because of your Experience Product?
Focus, review, implement the tools, play, be not afraid of trying
Is there anything else you would like to add?
COVID had really set me back. I hoped to be further along in this, but I also needed to set foot in a direction that is right for me. I see there is still a lot to learn about online marketing. And I appreciate the fun and supportive atmosphere EPM has created. I hope there are affordable opportunities to stay involved.
I was confused about how I could move my 1:1 coaching service so that I can help more people. I knew I could help my clients and get them the results they wanted and more, I just didn't know how to describe it or systemize it. Here I was, I had just quit my corporate job to be a full-time coach and I was losing traction. I joined Experience Masterclass and I rediscovered my true super power and strength. I uncovered the gem that is my "tribe" and the mission that I always helped them accomplish! I managed to complete the program, launched my minimum viable product which was geared at 1:Few (much more courage to do than you think!) I developed my program and my signature system and going through my history to uncover the value that my clients receive from me was the greatest gift of all. I may have not achieved my first sale yet; It is not a matter of if I will fill my MVP buy when!
Your GRADUATION Story
I was having a challenge to find a way to focus my skills and offering that could help writers, I wasn’t sure what to do - I was spinning my wheels and about to give up. I joined EPM and It helped me focus and prioritize and form a new mindset that it is about what I can bring to the table that is more than just the skills. I followed the order of the sessions, I gave myself time to reflect and pivot when needed and I got to GRADUATION with an offer I'm pretty proud of.
I have enrolled in SO many coaching mentors programs to launch my Christian Aerobics Product OFF the ground. The ups and downs of the process over so many years has been "hellific!". Marisa captured my heart in such a compelling way, even though I faught the process tooth and nail from the beginning, determined to percist in my "failurific" patterns. My biggest challenge was bing in the health care field and having to care for others when I could barely care for myself to do what needed to be done. As I gained clarity in my experience product (so very many were in the hopper), and use the gamification process I saw myself gaining confidence in the process and even myself. My individualized coach was also paramount in "egging" my scrambled brain along. As a result, I challenged myself with my "marginal" and incremental successes to move forward in new patterns that were unbelievable, even to me. I felt as though the entrepreneur spirit was finally on the verge of emerging full force, so that I could, one day, actually get my "angel" wings for others to benefit from. I still have lots of growth and development to go through, but know that will all of the wealth of life-time information and insights available on line with the MasterClass program, I will be well guided and propelled to the success awaiting my incumbant future! I am so greatful. Now am able to actually talk about my product in a fun and engaging way with an outcome mindset of service and satisfaction for my client's results.
Your GRADUATION Story
I was having problem with clarity, I wasn't sure what how to define or even say how I help women solopreneurs with their stressors and limiting beliefs. I joined The Experience Masterclass and I learned how to be more clearer in my offering. I was able to hone in on my audience and how I help them.
What's been the biggest change in your business?
I have clarity in my offerings and I am now working on my course with more confidence.
How's EPM and your success impacted your life?
It gave me my confidence and my joy of having my own business. I have been so overwhelmed with everything and I kept signing up with the wrong business coaching but EPM is the best coaching program out here and I love it!!
What's your biggest takeaway from EPM?
EPM has shown me the roadmap of how I would like my program set up.
What's now possible for you because of your Experience Product?
I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and how to accomplish what I set out for years ago.
Your GRADUATION Story

Confusion. I am closer to success MVP Launch help me overcome my limiting beliefs of I need to have everything ready before launch Can build my coaching and test it in the market and make it better eventually
This is my second time through EPM. Last year, I hit mission accomplished and planned to just keep moving ever upward. When COVID hit during course delivery and shut down most of my students' businesses, I did manage to sell some follow-on coaching, but I lost momentum and didn't launch for the rest of the year.
When the opportunity to do EPM again came up, I jumped on it. Sometimes you just need guidance and cheering on to do the thing you know you need to do. This time I chose a product that could be fulfilling even if my students can't work, and it sold beyond my wildest dreams.
The structure of EPM kept me moving, even when I was feeling doubts, and when tragedy struck as I started my launch, my coach kept me on track when I wanted to postpone. Now I get to focus on delivering a great course, and I keep referring back to the lessons on creating a stellar experience for my students, and noting which elements I want to include for the next iteration. I made enough money to include some fun stuff!
"Though I didn't make mission accomplished (yet), EPM has done more for me as a mom of 10 in business than ANY OTHER PROGRAM (and it's embarrassing...there were lots!) . At first, the influx of emails was terribly overwhelming...then it became a welcoming expectation every morning! Like, where's my next email?? It kept EPM top-of-mind. Even if I had ""squirrel syndrome"", that 'squirrel' was EPM! lol
I'm not used to stepping outside of my comfort zone of just 'doing my thang with the kids and hubby', so, during the bulk of the program... I went at my pace, kept up just enough to qualify for the Guarantee. I visualized the testimony Marisa would share of this mom of 10 (that's me!) who not only did the program, she busted through Mission Accomplished - but, my vision hasn't come yet.
Coach Debra shared a powerful visual of Tyler Perry being 4"" away from finding water after digging several holes and 'wasting' a lot of money... If I need these 4 extra weeks... then I'm taking it. I'm still that Mom of 10 who can do this, outside of her comfort zone, and within her zone of genius. God has blessed me with a gift that ALWAYS shows up and creates miracle breakthroughs that neither I or the person I am working with, ever expects. I have message and a mission to never give up. My 4""... is just 4 weeks away. So, no, I won't take the guarantee...I'll take the bike and will Keep Pedaling. "
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
The clear mission and how to create a genuine EXPERIENCE for my future clients. I always dreaded putting them through the same, mundane, I'll-never-finish-it course I had wasted so much money on myself. Now... NONE of my future clients will ever experience that with me; and it fits my personality to the T!
How did EPM help you become successful?
By staying the course with a course for the first time in....forever!
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
EPM has given me a new sense of purpose for my gifts and service to the world and my family. This time, it's really about just doing it because ALL the tools are there.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
Clarity. Clarity on exactly WHAT I'm offering along with the HOW - both within and outside of my comfort zone.
What is now possible for you because of your Experience Product?
To change relationships from one generation to the next.
after the loss of my child, I was challenged to stay in the game, feeling emptiness and struggling with insecurities keep me awake at night, then I discovered "Transition tears to transformation. A guide for grieving Mothers Masterclass" and this program gave me a new perspective on my personal journey to love myself more. I practiced the comforting bed time rituals and now sleeping soundly so that I can function optimally during the day.
I had the heartbreaking experience of watching my son go through serious mental illness and drug dependence...in and out of the hospital and him reaching out for help. It was the nonstop worry I felt around things that were out of my control. My heart was broken when I lost my first son at birth, but his death hit hard, a sudden tragic passing amid parenting. It felt like he took my heart with him. That deep pain I felt made me search for answers. As a sole parent, I had to pull myself together to provide for 2 beautiful daughters still at school. I learned a few things along the way about breaking patterns of sleepless nights and codependency and believing that healing my heart from deep pain, shame and guilt is part of the process of learning to live with my life in the new normal. I learnt how to put myself first because the pouring in and the pouring out was essential to function as a human so I sought help in learning how to nurture myself with self-love and care, shielding that wounded inner part of me, that’s fragile from the effects of the trauma of losing a beloved child. I can now share my story of how I made it through dark times to be the person I am today. The main thing was I recognised that couldn’t do it on my own, so I got help from skilled coaches and attended personal development seminars and communities that were upbeat and uplifting. it was then that I decided to share my experiences as to how I overcame the critical times and created the first wins that took me to new levels of performance to qualify as an Accredited Life-Coach and Meditation Instructor, so I can coach other mothers individually or in groups. I felt an infinite power of reignited inner strength and self-esteem and I would like to share this transformation with other mothers so that they can find their inner glow and live a more meaningful life. These practices have been helping thousands of mothers in dealing with burnout, heartache and sleepless nights, to lift their energy and overcome guilt, blame and shame in coping with the loss of their child. I felt an infinite power of reignited inner strength, and self-esteem to bring my “Think & Grow Journals” to compliment my coahcing programs and online courses. In this 6-week course, I will share Seven Sacred Keys to guide you transform the feelings of loss into a healing path of self-love & discovery. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to gently throw off the shackles of past trauma, and grief, by adopting a 30-minute daily routine with the “The 7 Sacred-conscious-healing-rituals” for body, mind and spirit. PS Grab my Mini Beta program at a discounted price, for a limited time and - it's worth $1,997 and for my beta program only for my first 10 clients, it’s not $997- you can knock off a further $200.00 I’m charging only $797.00 and I’m asking you for testimonies. _
What has been the biggest change in your business?
Launching and asking for the sale has been a huge accomplishment. Accepting vulnerability with my personal experience product. I can proudly share my message with the world... "Grief to Greatness Masterclass" I had to do 3 years of internal work to get myself right so that I can be there for others without breaking down in tears, because of the sensitive nature of the loss of my beloved child.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
I feel MVP made it easier for me to accomplish my life's mission, to create a safe space for grieving mothers so that they can access comforting words, meditation, sleep rituals and music 24/7, especially during sleepless, lonely nights.
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
I've loved the engagement and momentum EPM creates for me, Even though there were so many distractions during this time, Christmas, Covid etc I ditched the sabotage and procrastination and just kept going. So grateful for Marissa's foresight to have great coaches supporting us to get it through the overwhelm and check our work so that I reiterated my work and got it done, even with the tec! It's been an awesome journey to get here, I've done many courses but this is the best as it's given me tangible and rewarding results.
What is now possible for you because of your Experience Product?
Possibility of global reach. Giving hope to grieving mothers with 24/7 access to my online course, bringing transformation from "Grief to Greatness Masterclass" for Grieving Mothers.
Is there anything else you would like to add?
Keep on doing the great work Marisa and your crew. It is refreshing to see Marisa give an opportunity to "senior" people like me to come together using their genius and personal experiences to change the world. Thank you it's such a pleasure learning and participating here and doing Murrays course as well.
When God told me to create a faith-based weight loss program I said yes, but I need you to show me every step of the way. I started and content was flowing, but I still had so many questions on course creating. I saw so many advertisements for creating courses, websites, apps, marketing, but I viewed them all as distractions until I saw the dopamine button webinars. All of a sudden I saw that if I am not going to implement the 10 experiences all my work to create a course would be in vain. It was really God sending me the help I needed. I was pushed out of my comfort zone regularly, which I know was important for my growth. I loved all the support provided, the feedback from an amazing coach and all the little steps that I would have not thought about, but most of all I learnt the power of a clear short message and made my first few sales without even getting to the conversation part. The ladies didn't want to talk, they knew they wanted to sign up already which was powerful!
