A complete approach to go with everyone wants a healthy, longlasting and mindfull performance.

In the following article Marion is sharing her vision, her journey and the ambitions of "The MoMo Method"  in an exclusive Interview with Julie Ignacio from Elle Magazine France.

 
Marion "le fantôme" Adams, Ex XGames Medalist, Ex Motocross rider for Yamaha, Costumer Expert for Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team and now the founder of "The MoMo Method". A real Jack-of the-trades among the nowadays entrepreneurs. I meet her in our offices in Paris, beside a little photoshoot. She is a woman, 1,59m small, enthusiastic, very kind, incredibile young looking, positive minded and funny.
With an extraordinary eye colour she smiles at me gently, with a lively view in her face while we hugging us for welcoming. Her look is kept simple, in some white shirt combined with a classical flex baggy jeans, as it seems to underline the concept of "The MoMo Method". I am looking forward to our interview.

EM: Hi Marion! It's nice you have the time to join us for our little interview! How are you? You have told me, that you are not from France, so how was your travel?

Marion: Bonjour Julie! Thank you so much for having me! I am a bit nervous, cause it's nothing i am doing all day, but i love Paris, so i am happy to be here and i also could combine it with some days of vacation.

EM: But working as a Customer Expert for Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team have to travel a lot and so you are able to join fantastic countries and cultures. Many people are dreaming their entire life of something like that!

Marion: It's something i have heard really often, you know, it is awesome to travel a lot and discover new cultures and i am grateful i have the opportunity to do that, a chance others may not have. Being in contact with our fans, with our guests. But it is also awesom to come home, to wake up in your own bed, to follow a normal daily life without having an eye at the watch all the time.

EM: You are also a Vocal Coach, studied designer and in February you have founded "The MoMo Method". It seems  like a full schedule. How do you manage all of this?

Marion: And i also have 2 dogs! (laughs) No, it is not that everything happens at once. It was a longer process. The idea of "The MoMo Method" already exists a longer time. The developing of our products took a few years. And believe me, i have developed everything by my own. I have experimented, tested and tried day and night. Cause i wanted to make sure to have a good concept, a good product is able to help that i can sell with good conscience.
Everything else happend alongside or i have done it step by step, And now everything comes together. Everything i have alived and survived, everything i have learned, you know... it all helped me to become better and better, to have a clearer plan and being able to defend and stand up for me and my idea... now it seems to make sense. Now is a good moment for "The MoMo Method", the timing seems to be good.


EM: You have said, that you felt now ready to start "The MoMo Method" and that the idea of it existed already a longer time. How the idea of "The MoMo Method" was born?

Marion: Through all the  circumstances in my life, through everything i have seen. I was the first girl ever, 14 years old, in my age, in my category, to ride motorcross under contract with Yamaha. I have trained hard and had this dream of creating a professional sport career, to make history. Then i had this accident and had to end my career before it really started, because of that i struggled with myself for years (taps her head) physically and mentally. This is why the idea of mentalcoaching came up, cause i know i am not the only one. You can see it in different events and stories. A pro footballer went public about his struggle with depressions and did suicide at the end, cause he didn't know how to manage all the pressure about his performance. American football players freaking out completely, cause they don't know what to do as they retired or had to end up their career. Racing drivers or riders they are lacking performance, cause they suddenly facing anxiety or panic attacks.
After that i evolved several allergies and had to live vegan from one day to another. Without any preparation or warning. 
Suddenly i had problems with my thyroid and it was not that easy anymore to keep my bodyweight. Over years i tried every diet, i studied cook books, i learnd about interval fasting, everything i could get to find a solution.
I met the famous vegan cook Attila Hildman, before he started to going crazy. We worked together and developed vegan recipes (she lifts her hands). Just before everyone starts to hate me, we are not in contact anymore and i never do agree with any of his ideas or statements he is talking about nowadays.
I have developed our recipes further, i have implented them into a system of steps, which i am talking about in my cooking book "MoMo DD7". It's not yet out, but it will come. 
After my accident i couldn't train anymore as i did before. I had to find out step by step what kind of training my body takes, which not. Cause the heart of an athlete never dies. It's always something you have in your mind.
This is how the idea of "The MoMo Method" was born, step y step. Also my husband was a professional athlete, first pro footballer, then driver for Formula 2. He died in an accident. We both came up with this idea but couldn't do it together anymore (wipes away a little tear of her left eye).
Now. 4 years after his death, i want to present our concept to the  world. It's also a bit because i have the feeling i have to do it, to leave his marks on this world for him. Cause he is not able to do it anymore.


AM: After the story of your life, this accident ended your career, the difficult time after, the terrible accident of your husband... you have this positive attitude and you seem to be so much in peace with yourself. How is that possible?

Marion: You know, it just seems like this from the outside. It took a long time, a lot of nerves and patience to come over the situation i had to end up my sportscareer.
And i am not yet over it, cause you never come over something like this. It's always something stays in your mind. It also took a lot of work and time to talk about my husband like this. 
Nowadays i can say, that my husband died while he was doing what he loved, and he was loving what he did. 
​If there happens something bad to me, and believe me there were a lot of bad things happening, i try to change my mindset, just to turn around my thoughts. Just adopting a different view of the things to geht another point of view. I force myself to accept other thougts beside this one, this first one. 
Like with "The MoMo Method" i asked myself for the origin of the idea. What was the moment i thought about the first things of "The MoMo Method"? It was the moment as i elvoved this allergies, as i got problems with my thyroid. I started to ask myself: How can i turn my problem into a solution?
Now, with "The MoMo Method" i have turned my problem into a solution. My problem has a message now.
Cause i know i am not alone and there are many with the same problem, it's not only my problem and my message. It is a problem of many, this is a message of many.
The concept of "The MoMo Method" is exactly what i try to do in my life, to be happy & healthy.


EM: I love it! Because you have talked a lot about professional athletes like pro football players or american football players. Does it mean, that only professional athletes can join "The MoMo Method"?

Marion: No, not at all!
You know, "The MoMo Method" comes from my nickname Momo. If you want to say so, "The MoMo Method" comes from me, it's a part of me.
Once i was a professional athlete, but i am not anymore. Nowadays i am just a normal sportaddict (laughs).
​So, yes of course, "The MoMo Method" is for everyone. We take everyone with us.
Professional athletes, Ex Pro athletes, sportaddicts, if you want to loose weight, if you need help mentally, if you want to learn about vegetarian or vegan nutrition or if you just want to be part of our journey.
Positive nutrition, natural proteinproducts, clean proteinproducts.


EM; What are the plans for the  future of "The MoMo Method"?

Marion: Many nice things! (laughs)
This summer, i think june or july we will launch our new Clear Protein.
Right now i am testing some protein balls. It is still in a very early stade, but i hope to launch them for fall or winter. And then, of course, we want to become bigger and more famous. The general plan is to build up centers with our concept: Fitness, Food and Mentalcoaching.


EM: Yesterday i already tried the MoMo Protein Vanilla and i am thrilled about it. Cause it has not this chemical taste and really no sweet taste. It's perfect!
Right after our interview i will set my order! Now we are already arrived for our last question for you. What will you do after the interview?

Marion: Eating. Training. Sightseeing. In this order (laughs). From Monday on i have to be in Le Mans. Cause i am also working for BMWM, So while i am here, i do some sightseeing in this beautiful city.

EM: Ah, MotoGP... Is there time to watch the races? Just between you and me... what team are you supporting?

Marion: Euh, okay alright... i don't want to answer wrong. Of course Fabio Quartararo and Johann Zarco!

EM: That was the perfect answer! Thank you so much for this nice interview! We all are crossing fingers that "The MoMo Method" becomes big and revolutinzing the world of proteinproducts. It defently has the potential to do so!

Marion: Thank you so much for the kind chat! Merci beaucoup!
