ShayMarie is more than a name. It’s a combination of our names—Shay and Marie—and represents a mother and daughter who believe that the most meaningful conversations are the honest ones.
While we come from different generations and have different life experiences, we share a passion for growth, authenticity, and encouraging others to embrace their own journey.
It happens in heartbreak.
In unexpected endings.
In career changes.
In moments of uncertainty.
And in the quiet seasons when life doesn’t go according to plan and we’re left asking, Who am I now?
For years, Marie has built a career helping people grow—creating learning experiences, developing people, and supporting others as they discovered what they were capable of. Together, we’ve shared countless conversations about life’s unexpected turns, relationships, purpose, identity, and what it truly means to keep becoming.
ShayMarie Unfiltered is our space to share those lessons honestly. This isn’t a place for perfect answers or polished versions of life. It’s a place for real conversations: the kind that challenge us, encourage us, and remind us that becoming is a lifelong journey.

Mother & Daughter
While many of the stories you’ll read are ours, ShayMarie Unfiltered is also a space to amplify the voices of other women on the Her Voice tab. As our community grows, we’ll feature guest stories and perspectives from women with different backgrounds, experiences, and journeys because we believe there’s wisdom in hearing from each other.
Our experiences may differ, but our hope is the same: to create a space where authenticity is valued, growth is celebrated, and no one feels alone in their journey.
