If I could bottle up the energy of the Merrymaker Sisters I would do it in a heartbeat.

I first discovered Emma & Carla Papas (aka, The Merrymaker Sisters), through Dan Norris. I had a feeling based on their name that they were going to be a blast to talk to  (which they were) and I loved what they were doing. I loved their story of getting out of dieting and how it changed their lives. They made a conscious choice to get off the merry-go-round and eat whole foods, stop pushing themselves at the gym and start enjoying their lives more.

Novel idea, right?

Their story into finding what was right for them (from a health perspective) really helped them shape their business in the process. Their story truly represents the saying “ignorance is bliss”. They simply kept going with what was working and continued to share it. Their business continues to grow (cookbooks… a new book coming out in October! and a private membership). Emma & Carla are a huge inspiration and I know you’re going to love the interview.

Questions I Asked Carla & Emma

  1. Before we get into your business today, can you share what you guys were both doing before launching The Merrymaker Sisters?
  2.  I’d love to hear more about your story of getting fed up counting calories & fad diets (amen!)… where did you go to start changing things?
  3. When did you decide to take your business online?
  4. Explain what your business is all about?
  5. Your blog & content seems to be a mix of lifestyle, health and business (which I love). How has that worked with your audience?
  6. You also launched a podcast… how’s that going?
  7. What are some of the ways people can work with you?
  8. What’s on the horizon for The MerryMaker Sisters?
