Who is Marie?


I’m a digital entrepreneur, business coach, and expert in sponsored travel. After a devastating divorce at 50 that left me jobless, 10 thousand miles away from family, with 16 cents in the bank, I knew I needed to rewire her thinking.


Choosing to use my passion for travel, I embarked on a life-changing mission to travel the world on sponsorship and teach other travel lovers how they could use their social media presence in exchange for dream travel experiences AND collaborate with businesses to better the world.


I have dedicated my life to the service of others who love all that life has to offer and who revel in the wonders of the world and its beautiful people, cultures, and cuisine.


The owner and CEO of Marie Hernandez Coaching, LLC. I travel, live, and work globally and offer digital business and sponsored travel coaching programs that help people turn their passion for travel into a profitable digital business and travel the world on sponsorship.


What is it that you do for your clients?


I teach, give them tools, strategies, and empower them to Exchange their Social Media Presence For Once In Lifetime Travel Experiences.


Who should hire/work with you?


Retreat leaders, independent travel agents, bloggers, and digital business owners who have social media networks and want to use them to travel on sponsorship.


What is your big goal? Where do you see yourself 10 years from now?


My big goal is to continue to slow travel the world, connecting with people, places, and cultures and collaborating with them to bring awareness to those who might not be able to travel. I also am in the process of finding a villa in Tuscany to have retreats where people can learn about sponsored travel and how to incorporate it into their lives.


In 10 years, I want to be still traveling, connecting with people, and spreading love.


My soul finds joy through my passion for travel. I love meeting new people, experiencing new cultures.


I revel in finding more people to love. I leave a piece of me with everyone I encounter.

I refuse to believe that one person can’t change the world.

I can and won’t give up. No matter how small that change is, I will leave my mark.


I see love instead of hate.

I see humans instead of color.

I see light instead of darkness.


Love is love, and I will travel this world spreading it, inspiring others to use their passion to do the same no matter what that passion is.


I would love to invite the readers to join me in my free Facebook group, Seriously Travel Tribe, where they can collaborate, share, learn, and commune with like-minded travel lovers.
