Marie provides a unique blend of coaching, spirituality and business. Most of all she knows what she is talking about because she has been in the place most entrepreneurs are today – she knows exactly what it is like to be overwhelmed and out of alignment while pursuing your dream. She has transformed her own life using the very principles she teaches.
One of her greatest strengths is listening to the truth of who a person is and helping them realign their lives. She does this through coaching, universal principles, affirmative prayer, and helping them follow their inner compass. She uses a holistic systematic approach that is based in universal and business principles that are customized for each client yet flexible enough for growth. This is what sets her apart from other coaches. The result is that clients navigate their life from within and show up fully in their lives and business. She loves helping entrepreneurs connect with their businesses and take the next step to customizing a life and business that reflects who they are and honors their gifts.
She has completed accredited coursework through the International Centers for Spiritual Living in spiritual philosophy, universal principles and affirmative prayer. She is currently completing professional practitioner training through the International Centers for Spiritual Living. Marie is a certified life coach through Coach Training Alliance and a member of The National Association of Women Writers and The Global Institute of Associations.
Marie’s expertise is based on her spiritual, military, financial and sales background. In addition to being a certified life coach, she has over thirty years of leadership and mentorship experience that includes training and mentoring military leaders as well as financial and sales professionals. She also has 7 years as a holistic, value based trusted advisor where she helped her clients not only plan for the future, but connect with their financial reality in all aspect of their lives.
Marie is the past president of the National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors – Fayetteville. During her time as president she led the chapter to one of its most successful years in terms of growth and community service. Over the years, Marie has been noted in several local newspapers for her business and civic accomplishments.
After they both retired from the Army, Marie and her husband settled down in Fayetteville, NC, in 1999, to continue raising their children and start the next chapter of their lives. This year, she is happy to celebrate 25 years of marriage to her friend and husband, Kirk. They are the proud parents of their 22 year old daughter, Kiara, a college senior and their 18 year old son, Khiry, a high school senior.
Marie lives life as an adventure. In addition to being quite busy, she is an avid reader. She enjoys traveling, the beach, trying new recipes, and football. At 52 she is looking forward to her first skydiving adventure and learning to fly a plane!
