In today’s fast-paced world, achieving balance between personal and professional success often feels like an elusive goal. Yet, the secret lies in one simple concept: better together.
Core Values and Collaboration
Alison and Marcy’s journey began as sisters, deeply rooted in shared family values. Despite pursuing different paths after college, their unwavering commitment to mentorship and growth brought them back together to co-found Revel Coach, a platform dedicated to helping women thrive both personally and professionally.
Their collaboration thrives on their complementary strengths and a mutual belief that success is multifaceted. Alison shared, "It’s not just about excelling in one area. We’ve learned that community, mentorship, and inspiration create a ripple effect, making us all better together."
Marcy echoed this sentiment, emphasizing that their shared vision has been the cornerstone of Revel Coach’s mission: to empower women to embrace both their personal and professional potential.
Leadership Begins at Home
A powerful theme in their story is that leadership starts at home. Alison and Marcy agreed that the values and habits cultivated in personal relationships directly influence professional success.
"Your business will never outgrow your home life, and your home life will never outgrow your personal development," Alison shared. By aligning family values with intentional actions, they believe you can build a foundation of trust, purpose, and joy.
Whether it’s shaping family memories or fostering growth within a professional team, the principles remain the same: clarity, patience, and purposeful living lead to a lasting impact.
Shaping Memories with Purpose
One of the most poignant lessons Alison and Marcy shared was about shaping memories intentionally. They reflected on a time during a family illness when, instead of succumbing to grief, their family chose to celebrate life and focus on gratitude.
"That decision not only created cherished memories but also showcased resilience and love," Marcy said. "We get to shape our children’s memories—not by shielding them from challenges, but by framing those experiences with purpose, positivity, and love."
Takeaways for a Thriving Life
Alison and Marcy’s advice to women—and to anyone striving for fulfillment—is straightforward yet profound:
Anchor in Core Values: Define what truly matters to you and let those principles guide your decisions.
Seek Connection: Surround yourself with people who uplift, inspire, and challenge you to grow.
Be Purposeful: Approach every interaction with intent and positivity, whether at home or at work.
As Marcy put it beautifully, “Revel in the moments. Life is better when you’re having fun.”
This story serves as a powerful reminder that success, in all its forms, is amplified when we work and live better together.
