Marian Bacol-Uba is a transformation coach, holistic health and wellness expert, and a certified pranayama and meditation teacher. She empowers women to transform trauma into triumphs, heal themselves from within, and create a thriving life in mind, body, and soul with clarity and confidence.

Years ago, although Marian had a great marketing career, she still felt unfulfilled, unhappy, anxious and dealt with her PTSD and depression through alcohol and substance abuse. It wasn’t until an overdose and out-of-body, near-death experience that she finally WOKE UP! She was given a second chance at life and began her spiritual journey. Now, she is writing her forthcoming book “Survivor to Thriver” that talks about her journey of overcoming childhood sexual abuse, substance/alcohol abuse and traditional cultural norms to living a thriving life of health and wellness for the mind, body and spirit. She hopes that by sharing her story and journey, others can also find healing, transformation and empowerment.
