I recently had the pleasure of inviting Mariné Sélénée onto my podcast.
From the first moment I saw her speak, I was captivated by her energy.
I reached out to her to engage in a deeper conversation, and I’m stoked she accepted my invitation.
Mariné's presence was a blend of warmth and wisdom, and she exuded a magnetic confidence.
As we began our dialogue, she shared her insights into life, love, and healing from family constellations—a therapeutic practice that helps individuals address inherited family trauma.
Throughout our conversation, I was struck by how Mariné's experiences shaped her philosophy on life. She spoke passionately about the importance of giving oneself permission to "shuffle the cards"—to realize the audacity and boldness required to rewrite our own narratives.
As a French woman navigating her journey in America, Mariné's life exemplifies the power of courage and transformation.
Her ability to articulate her journey openly and without reservation is inspiring.
Mariné shared stories of her childhood in France, revealing the intricacies of family dynamics and her journey to understanding her father's distance. Her raw honesty about her past, including her marriages and the pain involved, reminded me of the profound resilience within those who are courageous enough to pursue healing.
Yet what I appreciated most about Marine was her lightness and playfulness woven throughout our conversation. We explored the heavy themes of family and relationships and the joys found in learning, traveling, and living life as an adventure.
Mariné demonstrated that life's beauty lies in its unpredictable surprises and that embracing these moments can be the key to genuine happiness.
In talking with her, I also began reflecting on my journey—the ebb and flow of relationships, the dance between youthful passion and mature understanding, and the eternal pursuit of personal growth.
She has a talent for grounding her wisdom in experiences, challenging listeners and herself to evolve. This conversation reminded me of the power that comes from sharing stories. With each narrative she unfolded, I felt more connected to her insights and inspired by her courage. We both agreed that it's essential to meet life with presence and joy.
I have such gratitude for her willingness to share her journey with such authenticity. Her spirit of exploration and her commitment to personal development were not only uplifting but contagiously motivating.
Thank you, Mariné, for your courage and for illuminating the way for others to walk their paths with boldness and grace.
For those who feel inspired to learn more about Marine or work with her, she can be easily on her Instagram and website. Her book, "Connected Fates, Separate Destinies," dives deeper into the themes we touched on in our conversation.
If you too are curious about your family's story, I encourage you to explore what Mariné has to offer.
