“I always felt understood and supported in the My Whole Self programme. It contained really relevant, essential and foundational content. Maryane has a unique way of helping you see things from new perspectives that move you forward, while also offering practical, effective advice that made a real difference in the areas that mattered to me. Every session left me feeling grounded, uplifted, and empowered. It definitely changed me for the better and I looked forward to it every week”

“My Whole Self was such an amazing group experience—while also giving space for each of us to explore what wholeness means individually.
As women of colour, so many expectations placed on us are draining, exhausting, and often unrealistic. It was deeply affirming to sit with other women, unravel those misrepresentations, and begin finding our own individual freedom. I would highly recommend! ”
