About Marilyn

Marilyn's Background
The bones and core of Marilyn’s work with Circles of Connection is the energy and commitment to offer opportunities for women to be seen, heard, and witnessed in a safe and supportive celebratory environment.
Marilyn is a natural and conscious connector of women. She blends her background and experience with her passions — ‘Celebrating Women’s Life Journeys and Creating a Bridge between Isolation and Connection.’
Marilyn’s early life as a military dependent, traveling the oceans and tropical islands along the West and East Coasts of the United States, gave rise to her interest in blending her own energy with her spiritual path. She continued this lust for travel and exploration throughout her adult life and combined this knowledge of rhythm and ceremonies with her desire to connect women at a deeper and bonded level.
Since the 1980’s, Marilyn diligently trained in many sacred healing modalities such as sound & energy, drumming for wellness, mindful meditation, yoga nidra, contemplative labyrinth walk, healing with crystals and crystalline consciousness; as well as, emerging as an Alchemical Creation High Priestess in the Magdalene Path. Through this work, she created her ‘Priestess-style,’ and offers new ways of being and seeing each other in sacred community.She continues to build that bridge between isolation and connectedness by forming the supportive environments of sacred women’s circles throughout her community.
