Unstoppable Mindset Podcast

with Michael Hingson

May 22, 2026

Marie P. Anderson joins Michael Hingson — New York Times best-selling author and 9/11 survivor — for an unfiltered conversation about the real world behind the glamour of fashion. Marie opens up about overcoming childhood trauma, domestic violence, addiction, and years of navigating abuse inside the modeling industry, and how those experiences shaped her mission to create safer, more empowering spaces for models.

From helping launch the career of Cindy Crawford to leading Elite Model Management and founding her own agency, Aria, Marie reflects on the resilience and determination it took to drive real change in the industry. She also explores how martial arts transformed her mindset, why financial discipline and faith were cornerstones of her reinvention, and what she believes AI can never replace — the human soul and genuine connection.

A powerful conversation about survival, purpose, and building an unstoppable life.
