Artist, Educator & Holistic Leadership Coach

Chat with me

MAREN JOHANNA MILLER

I empower conscious, reflective change-makers to reconnect with their inner wisdom and live and lead authentically.

With clarity, compassion, and courage

Aligned with their creative, energetic, and spiritual selves.

Through art, energy healing, and holistic leadership coaching, I offer guidance, tools, and compassionate support to help you cultivate resilience, trust your intuition, and align your values with meaningful action—creating ripple effects of healing and positive change in yourself, your communities, and the world.

For over 15 years, I’ve guided women and conscious leaders on journeys of self-discovery, healing, and authentic expression. My work integrates creativity, intuition, somatic awareness, and energetic alignment to support you in unraveling what no longer serves you and stepping fully into your unique leadership.

I believe there is something inherently spiritual and creative in all of us. I do this work because I’ve witnessed—again and again—how creativity and energetic alignment can catalyze profound personal and collective transformation.

I hold space with curiosity, care, and honesty, supporting deep inner exploration while helping you navigate the outer world with awareness, compassion, and courage.

I am committed to a broader movement of inclusive, intersectional leadership—one that recognizes that how we show up matters just as much as what we do. As an educator, coach, and facilitator, I support people who want to take responsibility for their values, their relationships, and the spaces they help shape.

My Philosophy

To navigate our complex world with clarity, resilience, and compassion, we must first turn inward.

My work is grounded in:

  • Intentionality — showing up fully and consciously

  • Collaboration — learning, healing, and growing together

  • Continuous growth — remaining a lifelong student of self, community, and justice

  • Anti-oppression & holistic healing — undoing limiting systems within ourselves and the world

Through creativity, intuition, and anti-racist practice, we can dismantle internalized systems of oppression, expand self-awareness, and cultivate leadership rooted in integrity and care—leadership that ripples outward.

Whether through art, energy healing, coaching, or facilitation, my focus is the same:
helping people return to themselves with compassion, creativity, and clarity.

Who I Work With

I work with individuals who:

  • Are ready for personal growth that connects to community impact

  • See coaching as a transformational, spiritual, and creative journey

  • Want space and permission to play, create, and liberate their inner child

  • Are exploring or deepening their intuition, energy awareness, and healing practices

  • Seek somatic and energetic tools to counteract racism, oppression, burnout, and late-stage capitalism

  • Value sustainability, nuance, and ongoing growth

  • Have begun examining internalized systems of oppression and want to go deeper

  • Understand that anti-racism is essential to conscious leadership

  • Want to paint an embodied, authentic leadership story—but know they aren’t using their full palette (yet)

I support individuals, educators, and organizations through processes of reflection, healing, and conscious leadership development. My work helps people reconnect with their values, creativity, and purpose while navigating complex systems with awareness, compassion, and courage.

Ep. 5: Awe, Vulnerability + Practice

In this captivating episode of the Be Rooted Podcast, Tekla welcomes Maren J. Miller for a heartfelt conversation exploring the intersections of learning, community, and the transformative power of somatics and energy work. As a multifaceted leadership coach and energy healer, Maren brings a wealth of wisdom and insight to the discussion.

  • Equity & Inclusion with a sprinkle of Woo

    Identity development involves our body, our heart and integration of learning about systems of oppression

  • Undoing Systems of Oppression

    Includes energy work. Includes developing a relationship with your intuition, your knowingness, what you and your body already - know, sense and feel.

  • Activism & Leadership Burnout is real

  • I work with folks who find themselves at the juncture of

    “everything is energy”,

    “everything is about race”

    and “everything is spiritual.” 

    You know if you are one of these people.

“Maren made me feel seen, heard, and gave me permission to be in process. Coaching with Maren gave me mindsets, tools, and resources that I’ll be able to use for the rest of my life. It was incredible to have an advocate and guide that’s walked in similar spaces before me.”

Maren is a brilliant and gifted coach.

In my business she has helped me get responsible for my identity…she’s caused huge breakthroughs in our clients particularly, white women…who have had transformation’s inside of confidence in their ability to act powerfully as entrepreneurs in a way I’ve never seen…so if you are considering doing work with Maren, I’d say do it. Do it now. Do it frequently. You’ll be amazed at what this woman can do for you and your people.
