About Marie-Elizabeth Mali
Welcome, I'm so glad you're here.
Sex, Death & Cash is about our liberation in relationship to sex, death, and money—three big-ass topics we’re taught not to talk about.
Let’s call them the ‘Taboo Trilogy’
We get free when we have the courage to face these topics, instead of avoiding them.
The reason I write primarily about the Taboo Trilogy is because I’ve had a lot of all three in my life and have directly experienced how each one can either bind or free us. Whether you get bound or free is your choice, and I want to inspire you to choose more wisely in your own life through these stories.
Sex, Death & Cash features deeply personal stories and tips from my well-lived life and the over 35 years I’ve spent working in the wellness and personal growth space, helping to liberate women into their realest, most powerful selves.
A few unusual things about me…
- Spoke three languages by the age of three.
- Went to a high-powered all-girls’ prep school in New York City for 13 years.
- Turned down the International Debutante Ball. Also turned down Brown and Stanford, so I could attend Oberlin, which better fit my quirky heart.
In other words, I’ve been doing my own dang thing for a long-ass time, all with the multicultural, rebellious soul of a poet.
I have a Master’s in Traditional Oriental Medicine and an MFA in poetry. I’ve been with each of my parents as they lay dying, 20 years apart. I’ve been married twice. For two years, I was a member of what some call a sex cult, but I consider a community of folks who practiced relating like it was an extreme sport. It’s also where I met my now-husband, Patrick, and WOW it’s good to be partnered with someone with that depth of training and skill.
I’ve worked for the past 35 years as a healer, a relationship coach, and most recently as a Mentor and Liberation Doula for women seeking to craft self-expressed lives beyond the status and roles others expect them to uphold.
I’m also a published poet, philanthropist, and underwater photographer who has a thing for sharks.
