Marisa is an author, scholar, writing coach, and energy healer who teaches women how to embody and tell their own Sovereign stories. She has just released her first book with Paper Raven Books, The Sovereignty Knot: A Woman’s Way to Freedom, Power, Love, and Magic.
Twenty years ago, when she was an American student studying in Ireland, Marisa discovered the myth and magic of the Sovereignty Goddess. Now, she combines her passion for Celtic mythology, Goddess spirituality, and Irish folklore with her feminist vision of creating an equitable world that is more beautiful, bearable, and bold.
Founder of the online community, the Sovereignty Writers Circle, and creator of the #7MagicWords Project, Marisa helps therapists, coaches, and other transformation professionals tell their authentic stories and build their businesses using her unique Sovereign Storytelling method. She’ll soon be leading in-person retreats near her home in New York’s Hudson Valley where she lives with her husband and daughters.
