Words alone do not do justice to the gift that is Anne-Marie Marron.
She is exquisitely attuned and superordinately compassionate — fearless even unto the furthest and deepest ranges of life.
She is a fierce defender of truth — calmly ever-present even in the face of high-stakes peril.
She is able to perceive underneath the veil of being – truth all the way down to the bones — with precision, insight, and tact.
She flows easily in the world of paradox: business and higher purpose, humility and leadership, shadow and light, primal and sublime.
I trust her to do ever the right thing, be in the right place — all the way into even the deepest of felt knowing.
She is one of the most skillful and talented practitioners that I know.
She is the light in the room that always knows the way home.

The work I did, the wound I mended, the healing that occurred with Anne-Marie is so incredible.
Other healers have come to my edges where they get stuck and stop. Anne-Marie saw that place, spoke to it and asked me for help to move through it. Her eyes were so deep and her soul so visibly humble and genuine, I trusted her and passed beyond a barrier into the deepest healing I needed of a childhood wound I'd been carrying.
She didn't just help heal a layer of the spiral, but the whole spiral, and the manifestations I've met since my new sense of wholeness and fullness has been fascinating and joyful.
Her deep love and compassion and fearlessness to meet the shadow and pain to liberate the soul is exquisite and I am so excited for all those who chose her to work with and walk their healing journey.
— Sophie Brunet, Vancouver, Canada
My sessions with Anne-Marie have been extremely transformative and freeing, leading me to places my soul has been calling for lifetimes.
The depth at which she works and the tenderness in which she holds space, even via video conference, provide amazing guidance and a loving mirror.
In a recent session I was led gently into the heart of my shame around sexuality and spirituality. I came out the other end in full body bliss and a window into just how powerful and joyful I am!
Anne-Marie has helped me to deeply accept myself, and to love myself as me so that I can give that love fully to others!
Thank you for your incredible perception, attunement and dedication. I feel totally met and seen by you.

My sessions with Anne-Marie are always incredibly fruitful, deep & healing. She holds space in a way where I feel met, seen, heard and we get to go to incredible places together. I get to really feel what is happening in my body and identify my emotions and what is going on within myself. The range of emotional experiences are anywhere from moving through shame, sadness and anger to accessing gratitude, joy and peacefulness.
I LOVE discovering more of my erotic nature with her and learning new ways to express myself and access vision of possibilities. She is incredibly present with me, tracking all the intricacies and subtle shifts so I can be more present with what is happening. She is fierce, compassionate and brings it all with so much love!
I experience Anne-Marie fully being in her gift and power in this work and highly recommend her for anyone ready to dive into their erotic nature in playful, adventurous and powerful ways!

Anne-Marie is extraordinary! She's one of the most well-attuned, empathic, sincere and skillful practitioners I've ever worked with, and one of the most courageous human beings.
When you're walking a challenging road, you need help from someone who doesn't shirk their own journey, and Anne-Marie is that person.
She offers guidance for all the facets of your process — claiming your power, embracing your purpose, unfolding into the profound depths of your spirit and your erotic nature — and on all of those fronts, she is a passionate and brilliant explorer and trailblazer.

I had the pleasure of working with Anne-Marie and was immediately impressed by her skill. She was able to care for me in a nurturing and competent way. Her ability to see me and understand where I was coming from was profound. I felt a deep level of empathy, understanding and guidance. The experience was smooth and I felt her expertise, level of care and compassion.
I felt at peace with her ability to take me where I needed to go and she seemed to know where that was, which allowed me to let go, trust and just be in the experience.
She has compassion for the situation men find themselves in and clearly wants to help them navigate this. Along my journey there have been many things I’ve needed help with. I’ve worked with men’s groups and there were certain things that men could help me with, and that only they could help me with. And, the same is true for women, there are different gifts women have and there was healing I could only get from working with a woman.
There are a lot of men who could benefit from this. I wish more knew about it. Anne-Marie blends a unique combination of nurturing, healthy sexuality and physical attraction that helped me in ways I didn’t know I needed or was looking for.

Anne-Marie is a gifted coach, who holds an exquisitely compassionate space for profound shifts and wisdom to emerge.
In our work together I have been opened to embracing my feminine power more fully in my life and in my work. Our coaching journey took us not only into explorations in the emotional, mental, relational and spiritual realms, but also into unwinding old patterns of shame and conditioning in the erotic realm. I had been unconscious that my early erotic conditioning, held in my body, was impacting and limiting my fuller expression.
To me, this more expansive, holistic coaching focus sets Anne-Marie apart from most coaches. Her sensitive, attuned, playful and insightful presence guided me through some challenging spaces to a deep sense of freedom and empowerment.
Her skill in facilitating deep conversation as well as experiential exercises is profound and revolutionary. I find myself more peaceful, self-compassionate, self-loving and ever more courageous and authentic in my own leadership as a result of our work together.
— Sandra, Boulder, Colorado
Working with Anne Marie was a step I will always credit myself for taking. In this ever changing and uncertain world – life changing events require attention and guidance and that is exactly what I received from Anne-Marie!
Anne-Marie was my “traumatic sightseeing” Sherpa! With her loving guidance we went to places and past patterns that were dimly lit, full of wild beasts, powerful and subtle energies (and more than a few monsters). There were no mountain peaks to conquer – just other parts of me to embrace and a new sense of vitality and a manifesto for the next leg of the journey!
In the middle of being shaken and trapped by a deep sense of on the job distress, I found a Facebook article that literally stopped me in my tracks. I took a wild risk and reached out to the author! We discussed her services through a consultation and went on an unforgettable journey.
She was so ready to meet the challenge with her inimitable and unforgettable empathy, insight of business and work stress and compassionate guidance. We went to places I that I thought I had conquered, repaired, and forever closed the door on!
The journey was raw yet surrounded in tenderness and my initial blockages were like boulders that we quickly turned into play-doh! Thank you for honoring me and being my guide — it is an enormous honor to have you on my S.O.S./recovery team.

When hiring an "executive coach," I didn't know exactly what I was asking for. I thought it was someone who helped me make decisions for the firm. Boy, was I right...and WRONG!
What I received in Anne-Marie was something I could not have foreseen.
From a leadership perspective, she has opened my eyes to leading from within myself vs. someone who I thought I needed to be.
Through being authentic, transparent, a "learner", and especially vulnerable with myself and my teammates, I have felt more at peace and a sense of freedom to lead this firm.
Anne-Marie has brought a lot to the table around organization, mind maps, timelines, deadlines, clear goal setting, and accountability which we were gravely missing. She didn't force her own style, but rather adapted her principles and approach to our style. Anne-Marie has not only helped me make sound strategic decisions, walking me through a step-by-step, extremely organized thought out approach that made sense, but has also helped others in the organization with their own growth and development as members of our team.
In addition to leadership, she has helped us shape the overall culture of our organization by opening our eyes to a new way of thinking.
Enough with the old top-down totalitarian approach, and in with the new open-minded, collaborative environment. What was the result? Employees that are heard which builds loyalty. Decisions that everyone contributes to and plays a role in which builds camaraderie. Communication and feedback within team members which fosters connection. Mindfulness techniques that help us be more aware of our presence and how we show up. She gave us tools to use in our daily lives (in and out of the office) that help us be better people.
She is a household name at our firm, and continues to make me feel like we're her only client.

I can be utterly honest with Anne-Marie because of who she is and where she allows our conversations to go – this is the difference she brings to coaching relationships.
There’s a freedom to say anything because I trust her fully, and she embraces delving as far into the past as I want to go, while helping me solve practical business challenges of the moment.
There are coaches who prefer not to go there, but Anne-Marie knows it is essential if we are to really understand who we are as individuals and leaders.
I am more tuned in to my emotional trigger points and understanding why they exist, and less judging of myself for having them.
With Anne-Marie’s guidance I have a game plan and like where I’m headed.
— Rachel Klein-Kircher, Washington, DC
Anne-Marie enabled me to step forward and ask for what I desired and needed. She helped me awaken to my power and find the brave, sexy god inside myself.

Anne-Marie carries the keen gift of seeing beyond what is overtly shown, and listening with her whole heart and body.
In my work with her, I have felt fully accepted, celebrated, and loved — even in (perhaps especially in) all of my unapologetic, vulnerable, sometimes ugly truth-telling.
Anne-Marie's wisdom not only comes from her potent training and experience, but it also feels deeply-rooted in how she's able to connect inwardly with her self and show up in all of her humanness. This provides a level of permissiveness and safety that feels imperative to the medicine she is so generously offering, an important medicine for which our culture is so very hungry.

I had the opportunity to work with Anne-Marie during a time of emotional hardship in my life. The moment I walked into her office, I instantly felt like I could trust her.
During our session, I was introduced to new techniques, concepts I was unfamiliar with and more importantly, she listened with an open heart and without judgement.
Her ability to help uncover deep wounds while communicating with so much empathy is a rare gift. I am so fortunate to have worked with her.

Anne-Marie has done an amazing job in getting me to connect with and articulating my needs in my relationship. She has many skills to offer in getting one in deeper touch with oneself and then being able to bring that to the world / relationship. She has been a pleasure to work with.
— J.B., Denver, Colorado
I work in mergers and acquisitions and can get lost in the details of hard headed negotiations and making deals. I can forget to be human.
Anne-Marie has helped me to see that avoiding my vulnerability has been a deficit in my leadership and sense of fulfillment, not an asset.
She has helped me to bring more of myself to the office, clients and home to my family. The ROI of working with her is evident by the quality and quantity of negotiations and deals I close.
But what’s more important is the quality of connection I have with myself, business associates and my family. I didn’t know there was another way to be. I didn’t know that I could be both successful and less controlling and stressed.
When I die, I will know that my life has been impactful and meaningful and I’m not sure I would have been able to say that prior to my work with Anne-Marie.
She opened my eyes in ways I didn’t even know I was blind. And, she does it in such a compassionate and fierce way that I never knew what hit me and my defenses can’t fight back. She’s my Jedi teacher. I’m forever grateful.

Anne-Marie is our Corporate Shaman.
Anne-Marie is an arrow shot of clarity. She sees things that are happening at a systemic level that no one on our leadership team seems to notice (there are 20 of us in total).
Then she masterfully helps us to acknowledge and own the paradoxes we inadvertently create. She guides us to employ tools and engage in conversations that close the gaps and course correct back into flow and out of downward spirals.
She’s our steady rudder in the storms of running a business and remaining human, open, honest and aligned with our vision and purpose.
— William C. Mueller, London, England
Anne-Marie helped me realize that my efforts to seem like a strong leader were feeble attempts to hide my fears and insecurities.
She showed me that it takes true strength to be authentic and vulnerable and those qualities are what makes an effective and inspiring leader.
She encouraged me to bring my true self out of hiding and create a roadmap for living and leading from a place of love and strength.
