Welcome to Unlocking Possibilities
​
A platform for navigating the joy of being human, breaking through walls and limitations, a possibility at a time.
Hi, I'm Marion, founder of Unlocking Possibilities.
I am here to help you navigate a world of possibilities so you can live up to your potential and experience a more fulfilling life.
​
As a workshop facilitator, life and business coach, I take pride in challenging people with intentional and actionable tools, accelerating their growth and helping them achieve their full potential both personally and professionally.
Business and Entrepreneurial Life
​
I started my first “real” business, Sierra Marketing, in 2007.
Sierra is a marketing and communication agency based in Surry Hills, in Sydney, Australia. Our clients are across multiple industries including property, education, finance, interior design, catering, beauty, environmental sustainability and not-for-profit.
​
My experience working as an agency, growing my business and participating in the growth of my client's businesses in changing market conditions, has taught me and keeps on teaching me a lot of valuable lessons that I love to share with my staff, business partners, clients and students.
​
Training, coaching and mentoring, a real passion
​
Over the years I’ve had the opportunity to coach and mentor entrepreneurs, students, business owners as well as people in the workplace. I am very comfortable consulting on any business-related subjects and any subject related to effective and impactful communication which I am particularly passionate about.
​
In 2019 I completed my Certificate IV in Training and Assessment. The intention was to formalise my teaching capability and increase my opportunities to teach in the vocational space and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs, marketers and business leaders.
​
Teaching, coaching, mentoring, is at the core of who I am. It helps me fulfill my need for making a contribution and having a true impact. I get great reward from seeing people grow and develop beyond what they thought was possible.
​
​
In the context of vocational education and business training, I feel that my mission is to support innovative training organisations with their member engagement and development by delivering creative training that offers the best participant experience and supports positive outcomes.
​
My training and consulting approach is grounded in real business experience and uses an agile methodology to support the participants so they can achieve their full potential.
​
I help entrepreneurs with their business launch and growth succeed by providing personal guidance, support and simplified frameworks adapted to the individual and their vision. Unlike other business coaches, my solution is not just about business! It is personal and uses life coaching and counselling methods in an agile methodology that supports my clients so they can achieve their full potential.

About Me and Unlocking Possibilities
If any doubt, the accent you can hear on my videos and podcast is French.
I was born in Nice in the South of France, studied in England where I graduated with an Msc in Management and Marketing convertible to MBA, and I moved to Australia in 2004 where I started my first business and continued my personal and professional development in coaching and psychology.
​
Why Australia? I had a pen-friend when I was 10 years old. Throughout my teenage years, everything she was telling me about Australia inspired me to live my life here.
​
​
Since 2007, I have successfully launch a few businesses, of which some did really well and some crashed miserably. This has been an amazing source of learning for me and those around me.
​
I've also been actively engaged in the entrepreneur community, in particular being a delegate and panellist at the G20 Young Entrepreneur Alliance Summits in Russia, China and Australia, and working with entrepreneurs to get their business off the ground.
I believe that entrepreneurial thinking is a force that stimulates progress and I like to encourage the people I work with to harness the power of entrepreneurial thinking to achieve overall personal and business success and live their best life.
