She became a woman who...

...breathes deep, embracing her edges.

Who leaves behind her shallow life, cherishing soulful conversations and stories of gentle strength. 

She who walks windswept hills, swims icy waters and a grower of magical plants. 

A woman who paints fairytale flowers, reminding her that even after the darkest night something beautiful will bloom.

Welcome

Hi, I'm Marie. At the heart of my work is a simple belief...the stories we tell ourselves have the power to shape and transform our lives.  Influenced by family, care-givers, culture, and inherited from previous generations...we learn to dim ourselves. To soften our intellect, quiet our heart, as though this is how we could belong. We become those stories. 

Some of us were never built for this way of living. We come alive at the edges.
At midlife a natural cycle occurs, something shifts. The life we’ve been living no longer fits who we are. Painful autoimmune flare-ups, deep-seated rage for the years of self-abandonment, or crushing grief for unlived lives emerge. These shadowy times reveal all we suppressed, ignored or masked. We are forced to listen to our body and untold stories...to begin the tender work of embracing our edges and become who we truly are.
