about
Meet mary lyn
"I love everything about business."
After twenty years as an interiors stylist + set designer and more than a decade of designing, owning and teaching in yoga studios, along with writing & developing programs for speakers and authors, Mary Lyn found a way to blend it all. Her home is still her laboratory for every design project, and she still has a commitment to health and wellness.
But the anticipated blend was applying it all in a way that worked, pulled her abilities together, and to benefit others.
Art and Journalism were her college majors. The two have remained passions; a varied resume includes 20 years as a staff stylist for Southern Living and Cooking Light Magazines, creative direction and styling for brands including Pottery Barn, Coastal Living and Real Simple; team & movement work for the NFL and being a cover model for Yoga Journal,
Mary Lyn guides individuals and groups to discover the depth in brand, storytelling, and culture as it applies to business, regardless of where you think you are currently.
Her first book, The Transformative Power of Language, was published in 2019. The study of language and authentic speaking are foundations to her coaching; and training, learning and certifications for her business coaching continue to be priority.
Mary Lyn has lived on both coasts and a few places in between; but calls the Florida coast and an Alabama farm her home. These treasured places are shared with clients in her three-day business intensive, an opportunity to guide entrepreneurs, share design, thoughtful touches, and hospitality. Her days are spent with clients, live and virtual, and with her grown up kids and husband.

the transformative power of language
The Transformative Power of Language was published in 2019 and became an immediate Amazon best seller. The ‘easy read’ uncovers the complex, and often over-complicated topic of language and one’s relationship to it. Based on 25 years of her own language study and journey, the book is timeless and more important now than ever. By shedding light on why we speak the way we do, the book offers impact and transformation as quickly as you’re willing to apply the book’s teachings. We can release, reclaim and restore relationships that have been wandering or lost.
My success feels 100% attainable.
I worked with a coach of sorts just prior to working with Mary Lyn and it did not produce the results I was after. After working with Mary Lyn, I have clarity around what my goals are, why they are my goals, and action to get me there. My success feels 100% attainable. Mary Lyn has truly unearthed a business that I am proud of. A business that aligns with my life's work AND profits.She believes in refinement and raising the bar.
