Welcome! I’m Maria Denise, and with a lifetime of experience across every role I've embraced, I empower women who are stuck at their life crossroads to gain clarity to make decisions to step into their authentic selves, and create healthier, more meaningful connections.
Having transformed my own life across relationships, career, and business, I’m here to share the powerful principles and hard-earned lessons that changed my world—and are now changing lives, one person at a time.
I'm happily married, finally at peace with who I have become because I did the work. I am also a proud, mother, Nana, sister, and daughter, supported by a wonderful and loving village.
I am certified professional coach dedicated to helping women to get clarity to navigate the complexities of their life.
I am officially certified through the Association for Coaching (AC) and the Professional Coaching Academy (PCA) . I have coached hundreds of women through my coaching programs and from the stage at speaking events.
I empower women to take a systematic journey to accomplish their goals with real, transformative results. I guide them from dreaming about a new life, to living a new life.
I am a Professional Speaker, with the privilege of delivering keynote addresses at both national and local conferences. My career as a speaker began in 2007 when I discovered the power of the message from the stage.
I also develop aspiring speakers through my Master the Mic: Professional Speaker Intensive providing the tools and insights necessary to build thriving careers in the field of professional speaking.
In addition to personal development workshops, I have delivered hundreds of presentations to empower professional leaders due to my extensive corporate background.
I am a Certified Trainer with a passion for empowering others through transformative learning experiences. Since 1994, I have built a dynamic career as a Certified Technical Trainer (CTT+), honing my expertise in designing and delivering impactful training programs. As the founder of Marden People Development, LLC, I specialize in crafting professional development initiatives that drive growth and inspire excellence.
My expertise includes conducting cutting-edge technical train-the-trainer sessions and leadership development programs. Renowned for their innovation, creativity, and engagement, my programs go beyond traditional training to deliver unforgettable experiences that resonate with participants and inspire real change.
Anointed by God as the Associate Pastor and First Lady of Resurrected Hope Ministries in Fayetteville, Georgia, I stand alongside my husband, our Senior Pastor, to lead and inspire individuals on their Christian spiritual journey. Together, we passionately apply biblical principles to help people overcome everyday challenges, fostering hope and spiritual growth.
