Speaker, Author, Trainer, Coach
I’m Christina Marlett, a recovering perfectionist turned spiritual ninja and self-care revolutionary. As the “good-girl”, I spent decades collecting gold stars and shiny medals—tap dancing in sequined costumes, editing homework for fun, securing my spot on the honor roll, and even winning a highly coveted handwriting award (just kidding; no one cared about it but me).
I did all the right things as a kid, a teen, and then as an adult. But it wasn't sustainable, and I didn't have the energy I expected. Inevitably, health issues, emotional outbursts (shoutout to my silent treatment era), and relationship disconnects finally got my attention. I discovered embodiment—and boom!—everything changed. I stopped over-efforting and started practicing self-care. Spoiler alert: my life got better in every possible way.
As the Founder of Courageous Self-Care, an Embodiment Enthusiast, and a Recovering Perfectionist, I help high-achieving, spiritually inclined women go from burnout and overgiving to radiant energy, peaceful productivity, and deep alignment, without guilt or overwhelm. If you're ready to stop pushing and start flowing, Courageous Self-Care is exactly the right place. And remember, self-care isn’t selfish—it’s revolutionary.
