From the moment I met Mariama, I knew I wanted to learn from her as she exudes such a positive glow that is authentic and grounded. Her ability to guide me through inner child meditations was more profound than anything I had experienced before. She can gauge where you are in your healing process, and meet you there. Her intuitive connections with me were so strong and were the key component in my growth in working with together. Altogether, Mariama provides a safe space that is welcoming of whatever needs to happen that day. She is so warm and gentle in her approach but we got deep fast, I really needed that. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to discover a new relationship with your body, and eating habits and get to the root of how to get there faster.

“Mari’s gentle, kind guidance helped me to find unresolved experiences and emotions that were blocking me from healing. Her coaching helped me to forgive myself and others, and be able to help my inner child receive kindness, love, and healing from my adult self. I don't feel compelled to eat food just to eat, or just to taste it, or just to feel in control. I am actually thinking about whether or not I really WANT to eat that food, will it make me feel better, or will it make me feel nothing or even feel bad - physically and emotionally. I am eating more slowly and enjoying what I eat more. I am allowing myself to eat whatever I want, as long as I really, really WANT it. I feel less shame, I am owning my body and the shape it is in, and am feeling happy that I am losing weight slowly, but surely. To be able to eat without compulsion is extraordinary to me!”

“Mari recognized signs and language I was using to get me to see what I  was saying about my own life experiences with food and body image. I felt like Mari just guided me to guide myself. She empowered me. She didn't just give me a plan, but together we developed positive changes for me. She kept me accountable with weekly meet ups and kept me on point without any shame or guilt if there were some hiccups in a busy week or lots of eating out or what not. I can't wait to continue my work with Mari.”

“The most significant change I noticed was a shift from a strong almost desperate feeling to change, into an overall acceptance of where the body is. Even though there is still some desire to change it does not control my life anymore. Mari really helped me to make a significant change in the way I feel/ view food and the body, but Mari did it in a way that made me feel like I was the one leading the changes and that I was the one doing the work.”

Through the time working together I felt deeply seen and heard. I felt that Mari did a beautiful job of holding space for what I shared, while also guiding me to releasing and working on what needed to grow and how to get there. I felt a deep sense of peace and calm, especially after the somatic practices. The practices I was guided through helped me realize how much I had been in fight or flight. Even now, reflecting on those times serve as a reminder to slow down and continue practicing breath work and somatic practices. So much of that is thanks to your guidance! Working with you has definitely been one of the key catalysts in my journey of growth.
