hi, i’m maya
A multidisciplinary, writer & somatic living coach. I blend the beauty of creativity with nervous system expansion. I know that the life you want is already encoded within you, you just need to be open to receive it.
About Me
My Story
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been writing.
As a young girl, I’d come home from school, crack open my computer, and disappear into other worlds. Story after story poured out of me—small portals filled with feeling, fueled by curiosity and imagination. My mom saved them all, binding them into one big book, quietly hoping I’d return to it one day.
And I did—but not in the way I expected.
In 2017, I picked up the pen again—not to write fiction, but to make sense of my own life. I started sharing pieces of myself on Instagram under my pen name, MAIA, and to my surprise, others saw themselves in my words. What began as personal expression became a place of resonance, reflection, and reclamation. Eight years later, I’ve written and published two books: The Fall, The Rise and When The Waves Come.
But writing, for me, has never just been about the words. It’s always been a sacred return. A remembering. A reconnection with the woman I’m becoming—and the woman I’ve always been.
She’s lived many lives. She’s learned many hard lessons. She’s remembered the parts once lost. And I’ve written them down so you can remember too.
In my spaces, we don’t bypass. We meet and honor ourselves fully. We build devotion around our truth. This is the work of reclamation. Of embodiment. Of returning home.
To pour more into my work and those I share community with, I am a Certified Somatic Coach and 200HR Registered Yoga Teacher.
Just like me, my writing and life continue to evolve. There are still so many versions of myself to meet. So many words waiting to be written.
Join in on the journey.

Ground your growth through the body. My somatic coaching sessions integrate nervous system regulation, mindfulness, and embodied awareness to help you release old patterns, build resilience, and come home to yourself. Ideal for creatives, leaders, and anyone seeking sustainable personal transformation.

Support your team’s performance with nervous system-informed leadership. As someone who has been in corporate tech for 11 years, I know how burnout works. I’ve been through it and worked through it. This space is close to my heart. I offer corporate consulting for mission-driven organizations ready to invest in their employee’s wellbeing, emotional intelligence, and conscious communication. Through experiential workshops, somatics, yoga, and strategic advisory, we turn burnout culture into a regenerative work environment. One that deeply cares about employee wellness and fosters a sustainable space.

Create from your core, not your coping. As a writer and poet myself, I help creatives move through blocks, reconnect with their voice, and build sustainable practices rooted in clarity, not hustle. This coaching is for artists, authors, and visionaries ready to align their creativity with their wellbeing.
-
Learning that moves you — literally. I facilitate immersive workshops that blend nervous system education, somatic practice, and creative expression. Whether in corporate settings or community spaces, these experiences are designed to deepen self-awareness, spark new insights, and catalyze embodied change.
