Introduction

Hi, I am Maggie Marino, a Certified Holistic Life and Business Coach.

I help high functioning adults who feel emotionally overwhelmed, often while navigating demanding careers, entrepreneurship, and parenting. My work supports you in releasing old patterns, realigning with who you truly are, and creating a life, career, and legacy rooted in clarity, grounded transformation, and genuine connection.

My Story

I grew up in an environment where deep pain shaped the way people related to one another. Each person saw life through their own lens and expressed emotion differently, sometimes through disconnection, distance, denial, reactivity, or blame.

I did not know how to adapt in a healthy way to the shifting energy around me. I could feel tension long before words were spoken. Sometimes it silenced me, and other times I spoke too loudly.

Those experiences shaped how I moved through life. I learned to anticipate uncertainty and to appear strong even when I felt unsteady. I created a life that looked stable on the outside yet often felt unfulfilled within.

In my career, I was someone people relied on, consistently performing at a high level in several Fortune 500 companies and being well liked and respected, even when my inner world did not feel as steady as it appeared.

At home, I was raising my three boys and doing my best to cultivate a different emotional experience than the one that shaped me. I did not always know how to do that in practice, but my intention was to offer them more consistency, understanding, and emotional clarity than I had known.

Among my siblings, I shared a close bond with several, particularly the youngest of my brothers. We were just over a year apart, and our connection ran deep. When he passed away, it shook me to my core. His transition awakened something within me. I realized I needed to change the trajectory of my life, confront the pain, and seek deep healing.

The Journey

That loss marked a turning point and set me on a path of profound inner work.

For two years, I traveled between the United States and France, immersing myself in holistic healing and ancient practices that helped restore my well-being on every level: mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual.

Later, I invested thousands of hours in advanced coaching, neuroscience, NLP, nutrition, emotional intelligence, Stoic philosophy, and life and business programs to understand how lasting change is created and sustained. I discovered that true transformation requires more than strategy. It calls for inner clarity, nervous system safety, and alignment between what we value and how we live.

As I walked this path, I began to see with more honesty how my patterns had been shaping the way I showed up at work, in relationships, and as a mother. Healing was no longer something abstract or optional. It became deeply important to me to relate to my children from more presence and truth instead of unconsciously handing down what had been handed to me.

It also changed the way I show up in partnership. In my intimate relationship, this practice has allowed me to bring more honesty, regulation, and openness; to communicate from clarity rather than from old defenses; and to build a connection that is rooted in mutual responsibility, understanding, and respect. Choosing this practice was an act of responsibility and love—for myself, for my family, for my partner, and for the life I felt called to create.
