begin the slow, tender work of building a life that feels aligned with who you truly are.

I'm Marie. At the heart of my work is a simple belief...the stories we tell ourselves shape our world and sense of self.

 

Influenced by family, care givers, societal culture and inherited from previous generations...we become the capable one, the caregiver, the professional, the good girl, the perfectionist.

 

At midlife something shifts. Carl Jung called this enantiodromia, a natural cycle when what we’ve suppressed, ignored or masked demands to be heard. It shows up as a sense that the life you’ve built no longer fits who you are.

 

It's reveal in dreams, what you pay attention to and what no longer feels like home. It arrives as crushing grief for unlived lives, deep-seated rage for years of self-abandonment or pain from autoimmune flare-ups.

It's a hunger for greater aliveness...

​

So begins the slow, tender work of building a life that feels aligned with who you truly are.
