Bonjour! I am Marie-Annick
A French American Health and Wellness Coach, Buddhist Master, Former Healthy Chef, Author, and Retired World-Class Athlete.
Present Legacy grew from years of lived experience, and the wisdom shared by the women I’ve guided. It reflects what truly supports women’s healing. The work with the nervous system regulation, somatic practices, mindfulness, and gentle wellness strategies. These practices help women reconnect with their bodies and live with more clarity and presence.
Your desire for deeper support also inspired my programs, books, community, and The Present Podcast, all created to help women cultivate emotional clarity, confidence, and long‑term wellbeing.
Present Legacy is a movement and a home for women who want to live with intention, compassion, and joy.
