Because Marie Said So

Because Marie Said So is an authentic, bold, and unapologetically honest podcast about all things entrepreneurship — with a powerful focus on women and minority founders. Hosted by seasoned entrepreneur and industry leader Marie Adornato, the conversations go beyond surface-level business advice and dive straight into the real, raw truths of building, scaling, failing, restarting, and rising again.

Nothing is sugar-coated and nothing is held back.

Marie pulls back the curtain on what entrepreneurship really looks like — the sacrifices, the breakthroughs, the hard lessons, and the victories that don’t always make the highlight reel. Through candid storytelling, fearless conversations, and unfiltered founder perspectives, the podcast creates a platform for voices that are often overlooked — and stories that deserve to be heard.

Because Marie Said So is more than a podcast — it’s a movement for trailblazers, barrier-breakers, and entrepreneurs rewriting the rules on their own terms.
