Concept

Marie is promoted as being an "inspirational journey to help people make a difference in their lives." The show features celebrity and non-celebrity guests who drop by for revelatory discussion of lifestyle tips and trends, socially important issues, and breakthroughs, which empower families. Osmond imparts her insights on surviving all of life’s roadblocks and detours with heartfelt advice about how to survive and move on with dignity, humor and optimism. Through the series, Osmond uses her life experiences, in hopes to provide insights, which can encourage everyone can come through.
The show also features a variety of segments, from cooking to home makeovers, as well as performances and fashion segments.
