The Mara Prose Podcast: The Becoming Series
The Mara Prose Podcast: The Becoming Series is where storytelling meets strategy, and growth happens in real time.
Hosted by author, publisher, tech professional, and entrepreneur Mara Prose, this weekly podcast explores the journey of becoming through honest conversations about business, publishing, technology, leadership, faith, reinvention, and personal growth.
What began as a creative arts and interview-based podcast has evolved into a deeper, more personal series centered on building a life, a brand, and a legacy with intention.
Each episode offers insight from Mara’s real-life journey as an author, founder of Mara Prose Publishing, Salesforce professional, co-founder of a trucking company, and founder of a custom application consulting company she is building with her son.
From navigating the publishing industry to building businesses, embracing technology, learning leadership lessons, and growing through life’s transitions, The Becoming Series is for women, creatives, entrepreneurs, and visionaries who are evolving out loud.
New episodes release weekly on Mara Prose Mondays.
