Personal Agility Passion Struck Podcast

Enclosed is an interview with Maria Matarelli and John Miles on his Passion Struck podcast which focuses on unlocking your hidden potential and discovering your passion in life. In this interview, Maria shares a lot about where she started, how she got to where she is today and the journey along the way – Check out the audio links below!

“Wish to learn techniques that can work wonders for your professional life and your personal life? In today’s show, we interview Maria Matarelli, CEO of Formula Ink and co-founder of the Agile Marketing Academy and Personal Agility Institute, where she reveals how her agile management strategies can catapult you miles ahead of the competition both in your business and personal life.

Always a hard charger, Maria started working at 15 and paid her way through college. When she entered professional life, she decided to pursue agile project management – which was then an unknown field with very few experts.

Maria progressed quickly through the corporate ranks, and as a 22-year-old, she was managing a 120-person team and saving her employer $1.5 million every year through her project management expertise.”
