Meet your Coach
I’m Marlena Parks—author of Big Idea Food® (Amazon bestseller, thousands sold, one of Yvonne Orji’s “favorite things”) and for the past 7 years I’ve helped founders package God-given ideas into offers, sales, and purpose-driven businesses.
I was a hot mess after launching my book though—wasting time and money chasing gurus and shiny tactics, drifting further from the vision God originally showed me—until God met me in the wilderness and retrained me on business His way. From that refinement came the Build Your Big Idea™ (BYBI) process: people-over-profit mindset, alignment habits, simple offer validation, sustainable launching, and growth rhythms that pay you without owning you.
I built BYBI Business School for believers who want to obey God, earn well, and run businesses that serve their lives, not the other way around. Now, through BYBI, I’m making it simple and accessible to build a business you love doing the work God gave you to do. Ready to build in step with God’s business plan? Let’s do it together, with God.

“Within 60 days of working with Marlena I secured my first client with the signature offer we created, and within 60 days of that I raised my prices and that same client paid the increase.” — Ebony James, CEO The Empire Effect Agency
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“This course really built this discipline in me to say, “Lord is this what you want?”, and then because I wait and hear from Him and then adjust, now there’s been no doubt in what I built. So it builds my confidence and now I’m not just running around, I’ve done the work, I’ve consulted with the Lord. My confidence has totally shifted.” — Mekdes Haddis, Founder, Just Missions
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“For the first time since I embarked on the entrepreneur journey, I don’t feel frazzled, overwhelmed or hopeless. My life and business feel so much more organized since I joined.” — Vanetta Morrison, Founder, The Blueprint Way
