Meet Leslie

Coach | Therapist | Yoga Teacher | Gardener | Author

I support women who are moving through the in-between seasons of life — when things feel unsettled, familiar roles no longer fit, and you’re not quite sure how to move forward.

If you’ve found your way here, something in your life may have shifted.

You might feel:

• worn thin by caregiving, grief, or long-term stress
• unsure of who you are now, or what comes next
• tired of feeling tired — overwhelmed, disconnected, or not fully yourself

What you want is simple, even if it feels hard to reach right now:

• to feel steadier.
• to feel clearer.
• to feel more like yourself again.

I’m Leslie Marchand. I’ve worked as a licensed psychotherapist, social worker, and yoga teacher for more than two decades. I’m also a life coach, gardener, and author of two guided journals — and I’m a breast cancer survivor.

But more than any title, I’m a woman who has lived through real seasons of change.

I’ve known caregiving and grief. I’ve experienced burnout and identity shifts. I’ve walked alongside clients in their hardest moments — and navigated my own. I understand what it’s like to lose your sense of spark or direction. And I know, from experience, what it takes to return to yourself — not by pushing, but by moving steadily and honestly, one step at a time.

Today, I guide other women through that same process. Through coaching, body-based support, and simple, grounded practices rooted in daily life and the natural world, I help women move through emotional transitions and reconnect with themselves in a way that feels respectful, practical, and real.

This work isn’t about perfection or performance. It’s about presence. It’s about having a space where you don’t have to be “on.” Where you can pause, reflect, and realign. Where your inner wisdom is trusted, and your wholeness is remembered.

If you’re ready to feel calmer, clearer, and more connected again, you’re welcome here.
