What does it mean to be Marian Catholic? I am a convert, and I don’t understand what a Marian Catholic is.

I watched a catholic U-tube program by monks. They said that they were all Catholic and all Marian. What does that mean?

Did they happen to say they were “Marianist” or “Marists”? If so I believe they are two different orders with the same name “Society of Mary” but had different founders.

St. Louis Marie Grignon de Montfort always said:
“To Jesus through Mary”.
St. Louis wrote in his book True Devotion to Mary that just as Jesus came through Mary the first time, i.e. the Annunciation & Christmas, so He will come through Mary the second time. IOW, Mary will help prepare the world for the second coming of Christ in glory. St. Louis explains this in True Devotion to Mary:

There isn’t any such thing as a “Marian Catholic” although Catholics generally revere the Blessed Mother and many have a special devotion to her.
The monks you mention likely have a charism/ order that focuses especially on Marian devotion. There are a number of religious orders that focus on praying “to Jesus through Mary”.

Congregation of Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception of the B.V.M., founded in Poland in 1670 A.D. About 500 priests and brothers in 20 countries: https://www.marian.org/
As a side note…thank you Mary for saying
“Yes” to being the Mother of God.
I believe that’s Mary’s Fiat. She did not question as other saints did in different circumstances. She immediately said "Yes!!
She is immaculate. St Kolbe calls her the immaculata and has the Militia of the Immaculata to this day
Jesus gives Her to us from the Cross .
Think now how She was docile at the Cross.
She knew Her Son. I strive to achieve Her Obedience and Faithfulness.
