Welcome to The Online Prosperity Show, and I’m your Host Prosper Taruvinga, the number one place to discover the ideas, stories, and human shifts that help you grow your business, lead with confidence, and create a meaningful life. This episode is built for anyone who wants a safer, more connected, and mentally healthier workplace.
Today, we welcome Marianna Barba, Director of Growth Training Group, a leader who has transformed First Aid and Mental Health First Aid into powerful tools for culture, confidence, and real human impact. Before launching her company, Marianna worked in corporate training where compliance mattered more than care — until she realised that life-saving skills could also be life-changing. That moment sparked her mission to bridge the gap between rules and real support.
With her signature mix of professionalism, humour, and heart, Marianna shares the turning points that shaped her journey — from the mentors who pushed her forward to the unforgettable moment a participant used her training to save a family member’s life. We explore the fears she overcame, the insight she gained, and the transformation that turned her into a leader who now empowers workplaces across Australia to respond confidently to both physical and mental health emergencies.
Throughout this conversation, you’ll feel the connection between her past experiences, her purpose today, and the unique energy that makes her the “Compliance Queen with a Care Factor.” You’ll also hear the invisible lessons and real-world stories that remind us why preparedness, empathy, and psychological safety matter more than ever.
Stay tuned until the end, because in the next episode we explore ideas that help you build a happier and more resilient life. If this episode inspires you, subscribe and share it with someone who’ll benefit from learning how workplaces can grow stronger when people feel safe, supported, and seen.
