“I was initially skeptical about how helpful a life coach might be, but working with MaryEllen the past 4 years has been really beneficial. She has helped me to focus on important issues and is willing to tackle anything. She is supportive without ever being critical or judgmental. MaryEllen’s upbeat personality is an added bonus to her professional skillset, she is a pleasure to work with.

Hi, I’m MaryEllen, but you can call me MEG.
I believe that taking care of ourselves holistically is essential for our collective progress.
I have been coaching folks for over 20 years. My time working in the corporate world and public health realm, are what lead me to launch Empowered by MEG in 2009. In my experiences, I’ve learned how culture, environment, and social structures shape our behavior patterns and impact our health and potential. My mission is to help my clients reach their goals with expanded awareness around the collective benefits that come when you reimagine how you think and act.
Success, health, and wellbeing is much bigger than the list of our achievements, how we feed and move our bodies, and whether or not we feel comfortable or happy. It’s the thoughts we think, the words we speak, the actions we take, the boundaries we set, the spaces we find ourselves in, the space we take up, the way we treat each other, and the everyday decisions we make in how we choose to make our way through life individually and collectively.
I look forward to not only helping you reach your goals, but also leaving things around us a little bit better.
