I believe everyone deserves to feel whole, balanced, and empowered in their life. I understand firsthand the challenges many face in juggling multiple roles while trying to find balance and have made it my mission to help you prioritize yourself without guilt or compromise and make sustainable lifestyle changes through habit formation, mindfulness, and intentional living.
I have over 14 years experience in the health & fitness industry and I believe in a holistic approach to wellness that incorporates health coaching, life coaching, stress reduction, and meditation practices.
Heal to Lead brings together powerful stories from leaders who have transformed deep personal pain into a driving force for serving others. Through accounts of healing from trauma, overcoming addiction, navigating motherhood, and moving on after loss, these individuals share their journeys of resilience and courage. As they lift the veil on mental health and personal struggles, they reveal how facing challenges head-on can lead to growth and inspire others to rise above adversity. This collection offers practical tools and inspiration for anyone ready to heal and lead.
I believe that everyone needs to prioritize themselves to truly thrive in every aspect of their lives. This belief stems from my own journey of overcoming the martyr complex and recognizing the profound impact of self-care on well-being.
When you make your well-being and self-care a priority, you can put forth the best version of yourself in both work and life. However, many people are not equipped with the knowledge they need to achieve holistic health because they are often overwhelmed by societal expectations and personal responsibilities, which leave little room for self-discovery and growth.
My mission is to bridge this gap by providing practical tools and compassionate support, helping you navigate the complexities of modern life and empowering you to live authentically and intentionally.

"Super grateful for her"
"Marie has been so good to work with as my life wellbeing coach. I signed up for her coaching as I thought the mental aspect of what I am trying to accomplish needs to be there. I wanted a lifestyle change.
I am 7 weeks into the life coaching program and Marie has given me tangible advice and a solid foundation for me to keep moving forward with a process that will give me a long lasting change. Super grateful for her. Thank you Marie!!"

"Truly a wholistic and beautiful experience."
"Marie and her Golden Hour Coaching have been an incredible experience for me. One that I’m truly thankful I get to revisit on a monthly basis with Journey to Clarity classes. Marie is kind and gentle while using her strengths of wisdom and clarity to guide you through exercises opening new doors of self discovery. I’m grateful for the classmates I’ve met and continue to meet. Truly a wholistic and beautiful experience."

"I feel more in control of my life"
"Marie's Kickstart Wellness Coaching was just what I needed to have the encouragement and accountability as I embark on some new goals. Marie is a great listener and I was excited by her ideas. They were simple, yet they made a major impact. I appreciated Marie's careful listening and that she was able to tailor her expertise to my unique challenges. I was recharged after each of our sessions, and I now feel more in control of my life and the milestones I plan to achieve."
