Hey, I’m Marién.

A Mermaid like you with over 16 years of “did that just happened” stories to share. I’m the founder of YM, creator of the Mermaids Kick-Starter Bible, your guide inside the YM Self-Leadership Course and host of Uncensored a Yachting International Radio Show.

Want to know more?

I’ll keep you entertained with these 11 facts:

  1. I am a Jack Of All Trades. I have worked as a deckhand, cook, masseuse/yoga instructor, chief stew, crew agent, interior trainer, and now solopreneur. 

  2. I am the second of 6 siblings. I like to think this is why living with crew onboard was easy for me.

  3. Reclaiming My Inner Child saved me from suicidal depression and healed my body. Read the full story here.

  4. I power my body with plants. I tried many diets and found that a plant-based lifestyle was the perfect combination to maintain my health.

  5. I studied shamanism with different tribes in the Amazon. I loved every minute inside the jungle. 

  6. Water Addict and Travel Junkie. The ocean cleanses me, the river fuels me, and traveling sparks my creativity. 

  7. I am an advocate for seafarers rights, specifically for those who have experience work or sexual harassment at sea. Listen or Watch the Uncensored Show Here.

  8. When not at work you can find me climbing a tree, playing my drum in the river, or in search of the most orgasmic vegan ice cream in town.

  9. Me first. Because of my willingness to love myself, I'm living my dream; healthy body and mind, work-life balance, supportive partner, and a thriving biz that let's me be of service to you. Sign up here to get your dose of self-care.

  10. I lead by example. During my time as a Chief Stew, I learned that I love inspiring others to achieve their dreams and become their best version.

  11. And that's what I want to do for you here…Bring you back to your "I got this" so you can tick off your goal of becoming a Top-Notch Chief Stew!
