Hi, I’m Marima.

This is the story of my journey to where I stand today. It's about where I come from, the path I took, and the lessons I've learned along the way.

I remember 8 years ago, sitting on my balcony thinking, "I don't remember the last time I laughed, or smiled, or just felt a connection with someone, let alone myself."

At that point, I was lost. I was addicted to substances. The man I thought I'd marry broke up with me because we couldn't figure out how to transform our unhealthy dynamics. I quit university because I had so little energy I couldn't study. I felt hopeless, tired, and completely disconnected—from the people around me, from God, and mostly from myself.

It was my breaking point. I felt a deep longing, an almost physically painful desire to feel connected again. From here, my journey began. And I fully committed.

On my mission to reconnect, I explored many paths. I found answers in psychological science through my Bachelor's in Drama Therapy, studying Attachment Theory, and learning about the Nervous System. I also found resolutions in ancient traditions, studying and practicing Shamanism, Tantra, Plant Medicines, Voice Liberation, and Archetypal Embodiment. I dedicated almost every hour of my day to absorbing these teachings.

And this brought me everything. I owe who I am today to all the teachings I learned, felt, and embodied, and to the wonderful mentors who guided me. The fact that I can love so deeply, have healthy relationships, and feel such freedom, joy, and gratitude on a daily basis feels almost like a miracle. Looking back at that girl sitting on the balcony, feeling so lonely and afraid, I feel a fire in my heart. I am proud of her for daring to face the wounds that caused her disconnection, for daring to feel the pain, and deciding it would not rule her life. For making the commitment to choose love, over and over again.
