She’s not just a former WNBA star; she’s a pioneer who turned her struggles into a powerful narrative in her book, "Transformed: The Winning Side of Losing." Marie’s journey from the tough streets of Little Haiti in Miami, to elite sports and then on to Harvard for her MBA is nothing short of inspiring, and she’s here to remind us that true success is all about evolving through adversity.

With a side of sarcasm, we’ll explore the absurdity of life’s curveballs and how she’s turned loss into a legacy with the Be Like CJ Foundation, honoring her late son. So buckle up, because this conversation is all about grit, grace, and finding the light even in the darkest moments.
