Return To Yourself

A compassionate, neuroscience-informed path to nervous system resilience, self-awareness, and lasting change.

You will reshape your brain and nervous system in a way that results in greater resilience, calm, clarity and overall happiness.

 

Move Beyond Stress and Into Clarity

You may appear capable on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, reactive, anxious, or disconnected on the inside. Many people learn to function well under pressure while quietly carrying stress that affects their relationships, decisions, energy, and sense of self.

Through brain-based coaching, HeartMath® resilience training, mindfulness-based behavior change, and equine-assisted learning, I help people understand the patterns shaping their lives — and gently transform them.

Together, we build greater calm, clarity, resilience, and a more grounded way of living and leading. With compassionate, heart-centered support, familiar filters begin to shift, perspectives expand, and new possibilities emerge for how you approach challenges and opportunities.

The result is renewed self-awareness, greater emotional steadiness, and a meaningful return to yourself.

Meet Elizabeth Markie

I believe meaningful change begins when we learn to understand ourselves with greater honesty, compassion, and awareness.

My work is rooted in the understanding that stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and old patterns are not personal failures — they are often learned responses that can be gently shifted with the right support, tools, and practice.

I work with a wide range of clients, including college students, entrepreneurs, leaders, professionals, and individuals navigating important life transitions. While their circumstances may differ, many come to me wanting the same thing: greater calm, clarity, resilience, and a more authentic way of living and leading.

Clients often seek support during times of transition, burnout, emotional stress, leadership challenges, uncertainty, or when they simply know something in their life needs to change. Together, we create a space for insight, healing, resilience, and meaningful forward movement.

My approach is shaped not only by professional training, but by life experience and years of supporting others through change, grief, growth, and renewal. I am also the author of Gentle Acceptance, a reflection of my belief that lasting transformation happens not through force, but through awareness, compassion, and steady practice.

I work with clients globally through virtual coaching and training.

If you feel ready for a more grounded, clear, and authentic way of living, I would be honored to support you.

Testimonials / What clients are saying.

 

Blending real-world experience and relevant science.

“Understanding how the brain works, the way Elizabeth conveys it, enabled me to see and understand what my brain was doing in any given situation. This awareness helped me to identify how I had conditioned (wired) myself to behave over time and how I could shift my thinking patterns and emotions to create new wiring, which has lead to enhanced performance in all facets of my life.”

— Kim Ahearn

 

Increasing awareness and turning that into action.

“Simply put, Elizabeth’s practice and compassion has changed my life. She guided me to become more present and aware and how to turn that awareness into meaningful actions. The impact of her coaching is a direct reflection of her commitment of service to others, a wealth of understanding on the science of “how” and “why” behind human behavior, combined with an affective and very personable coaching style. ”

— Chad Giddings

 

My team was ecstatic.

“In any business that is innovating and moving quickly, employees can deal with a large degree of stress. Leadership's responsibility to support their team goes far beyond heath insurance and the occasional team happy hour. I brought in Elizabeth to lead an educational session with my team, and it was one of the best decisions I could have made. We learned about our brains and the neuroscience behind healthy communication, stress management, and productivity. My team was ecstatic. I was giving them real tools to take to the workplace and home, and it will continue to be part of the benefits I share with Intrinio into the future. Helping my employees learn and grow is the best part of my job - Elizabeth made that much easier with a modern, brilliant twist.”

— Rachel Carpenter, Chief Executive Officer - INTRINIO
