About Marita

I love to share my extreme life experiences and hope to inspire change in others….just for fun:-)

First, a little bit about my background

In 1979 I moved to California from Germany, when I was 24. When I was 58 I decided to move back to Germany to be closer to my aging parents and in between….I cared for my family, raised 2 children and managed our household. Over a period of 34 years I owned and managed a clothing store, a successful workroom for Interior Design and worked in Real Estate, staging and selling homes in the bay area.

Midlife came along and my life fell apart. I went through some very dark years. I could not live with my husbands addictions anymore and had to leave my marriage. We had to sell the home I loved, my business fell apart, my kids resented me and on it goes………

To say the least I was lost… anything that inspired and gave me hope helped me make it through the day. I learned about new ideas at personal development seminars, like Landmark Education and Peak Potentials.

I participated in all kinds of support groups, like Alanon and Nami. I took classes at meditation centers, like spirit rock and started to meditate and do yoga.

All this helped me transform my way of thinking and changed my way of being in the world from “victim to co-creator“. My life miraculously changed and I have learned that

If I can do it anybody can and anything can be learned

Technology always scared me, especially computers. When I got divorced in 2006 at the age of 51, one of the first things I decided to do was to improve my computer skills so I could be competitive in the business world.

I did whatever it took and I started taking computer classes even though it scared the hell out of me.  At first, the process was slow, but little by little, I started to grasp the concepts and finally I developed my first online business.

I neglected “me” for a long time, focusing on my family, my business and always thinking that I had to be practical. Finally in my early 50s, it became obvious that creativity, self-expression and being an inspiration for others are essential for  my well being…I needed to change something.

As I began to explore my creative side, my life transformed.

I now experience greater:

  • Acceptance
  • Aliveness
  • Peace
  • Fulfillment
  • Joy
  • Compassion

My first coaching experience was in 2005 and it fascinated me. I had a life changing experience participating in the landmark education curriculum.

I was hooked on human potential and continued my education with several companies and started my training to become a certified coach with Coachville, New York.

In 2014 I started to learn about Human Design, which is a fascinating tool to learn more about myself and how I function.  Now at 63 I have more fun than ever before. I love to dance 5 rhythms,  paint crazy paintings and I love to inspire others to do the same.

Are you ready?

Just for fun 🙂
