EMBODIED INTELLIGENCE
COACHING IMMERSION
ILLUMINATE THE MIND, ELEVATE THE BODY, CREATE FROM THE SOUL
If you’re on this page, you are no stranger to the small, strong voice that whispers from your bones.
It has been whispering to you since you were a wee one.
It speaks in a language different than words.
Despite decades of conditioning trying to silence it, it persists.
You hear it whenever you are in your body.
This voice is your wisdom voice.
It possesses all the strength, clarity, motivation and courage you will ever need.
And yet for so many, this voice feels absent, inaccessible, or unreliable - like a tin can held to your ear with no one on the other end of the string.
After 20 years of working in the Embodied Arts, there is one thing I am absolutely certain about.
You cannot make this whispering voice speak louder. It is not its nature.
What you can do is quiet the noise around you to hear it more deeply.
Align The Mind
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
The stories you tell yourself about yourself are creating your whole life. These stories are not just written in the mind however, they are written in the body. Through powerful mindset training and mindfulness, you’ll dissolve resistance, gain mental strength and clarity, and take action from deep, feeling fueled wisdom.
Attune The Body
Somatic Psychology & Intuitive Movement
Our thoughts, beliefs and actions are intimately tied to the intricate intelligence of the body. If your thoughts are the leaves on a tree, your nervous system is the trunk and roots. This method helps unravel trapped tension and limiting beliefs in the body, creating space for clearer thinking in the mind, ease and openness in the body.
Inspire Through Beauty
Spa & Beauty Therapy
Beauty practices are an ancient form of healing. Beauty soothes the nervous system and expresses the soul. Through relaxing skincare and spa rituals, as well as inspiring lessons in soulful style, you'll begin to engage with beauty not merely as an esthetic, but as a spiritual practice and a balm for the soul.
Illuminate Through Art
Meditative Art Therapy & Creative Assignments
The subconscious mind is exactly that: a deeper, sub-awareness that exists beneath the intellect. One of the most powerful ways to synthesize transformation is through art and creativity. The subconscious speaks through image, sound and sensation. Art therapy exercises will give you a glimpse into the beauty of your inner world that is quite literally, beyond words.
I have tried all manner of mind-based methods (talk therapy, traditional life coaching, mindset training and more) to heal this disconnect that happens between wanting something and creating it.
All of these have been useful, but they miss one critical detail…
All creation begins in the body.
You know this because you’ve felt it.
Your dreams, desires, yearnings - these things may appear as pictures in your mind, but they are born from the fire in your belly, the ache in your heart, the knowing in your bones.
Just like you cannot solve a problem with the same consciousness that created it, you also cannot create what is born in the body using just the consciousness of the mind.
Embodied Intelligence Coaching is a proven, somatic process for unraveling limiting beliefs and creating new neural pathways of power.
THE COACHING EXPERIENCE
PROGRAM COMPONENTS
WEEKLY IMMERSIVE ONE-ON-ONE COACHING
Embodiment is intimate, ongoing work. Transformation happens inside and outside our sessions, so support is given for the entire experience.
In addition to our weekly 60-minute sessions, you will have direct access to me for ongoing support. We will get to know each other deeply, and I will have my finger firmly on the pulse of your goals, challenges and progress throughout the entire experience.
THE SELF COACHING LIBRARY
In this program you will not only be given my full attention and during and in-between our sessions, you’ll also receive a special library of skills to develop your own skills. Here you’ll find worksheets, videos, audios and proven, tested, LIFE CHANGING curriculum for accessing reducing anxiety, releasing limiting beliefs and attuning your emotional intelligence. These tools of transformation will last a lifetime.
A RICH PLAYLIST LIBRARY
Candlelight Dinner, A Good Cry, Golden Hour, Road Trip, Curated Classical, Sunday Morning, Coffee in Paris and Sound Sleep are just a few of over 15 playlists to inspire your embodiment & add flourish to your day.
UNLIMITED PEP TALKS IN BETWEEN SESSIONS
Embodied Intelligence is a completely immersive, fully supported experience. In between our weekly sessions, any time you need a pep talk you can send me an email and I’ll respond with an on-the-spot laser coaching voice note M-F. You can email me daily if you like. In fact, I encourage it!
THE 40-DAY DIARY OF DISCOVERY
In the first 40 days of your coaching experience you'll begin a powerful daily journaling practice. Each morning you'll begin with a 10-minute mindset exercise to align your mind with intention, followed by a daily creative prompt to playfully explore your inner world through therapeutic art exercises. This transformative journal is an actual book (not a PDF) and will be delivered to your doorstep. It is, beautiful, powerful and so...much...FUN!
GROUND, GROW & GATHER - AN OPTIONAL WEEKLY MASTERMIND
The Embodied Intelligence system is three fold - the work you and I do together, the growth you do on your own, and the incredible power of a like minded group of support. In these weekly circles we will ground through an embodiment practice, grow together by exploring one of the self-coaching tools, and you’ll receive support, ideas, and feedback from your peers. These circles are truly transformative, and have led to incredible life-long friendships for past members. “Never underestimate the power of a small group of committed people to change the world. In fact, it is the only thing that ever has.” ~ Margaret Mead

ABOUT MARY
Hello! I’m Mary.
I am a body lover, a truth seeker, and a savant of the senses.
I am a Certified Feminine Embodiment Coach, a certified yoga and Qoya teacher, and a licensed esthetician.
I go wild for all things body and beauty, and for seeing my clients achieve their full Presence Based Potential.
Chasing your “full potential” can be exhausting. I believe in the worth and dignity of every human on this planet. I believe you are perfect as you are, so there’s no sense trying to “improve” you.
I will hold the space for your potential to be expressed not just by what you create, but by how fully you can relax into who you are.
To breathe deep and feel even deeper. To feel truth in your body and speak it out loud. To create the art that this planet needs, and that only you can make.
As a coach, I have a unique honor and opportunity - to see a person’s brilliance and potential, without the limitations of their ego.
The ability to believe in our own dreams is often clouded by our experiences of the past. This is where coaching can create incredible change and results.
I think of coaching like working with a personal trainer for your goals. You are in charge of your own results. But a trainer can provide you with proven methods of transformation, can see where fear is holding you back, and can offer you extra accountability to keep going.
I am here to help humans meet their full Presence Based Potential.
Maybe the reason you haven't been able to make the changes you want to see isn't because you weren't meant to. Maybe it's because you were never meant to do it alone.
My Professional Experience
I have worked in the Embodied Arts for over 22 years. I am a Certified Feminine Embodiment Coach through the School of Embodied Arts. My coaching also utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy techniques, as well as Art Therapy inspired assignments.
I am a licensed esthetician and a certified Yoga and Qoya teacher. I published a book called Sacred Seduction™ under my former burlesque persona Kitty Cavalier,
I have served as the enrollment director of the School of Womanly Arts, where I intimately studied the connection between feminine power and pleasure, and I have facilitated over 14 embodiment retreats on three different continents.
Relevant Personal Experience
I have personally practiced mindfulness, embodiment and somatic work for my own growth since I was 16 years old.
I have been studying, practicing and mentoring addiction recovery for almost 20 years.
I feel most at home when the sweet smell of a horse’s breath is in the air. I am a sucker for inanimate objects in the shape of animals. One of my favorite quotes is “What is success?” asked the boy. “To Love", said the Mole. (Charlie Mackesy).
I am currently traveling to cities across the U.S. on a Listening Tour, feeling into where in the world feels right for the woman I am today to call home.
