About Me

I'm Maraya,
a Certified Lifecoach and Positive Mindset Mentor,

​and a former expat who’s navigated the unique challenges expats face abroad. I deeply understand how stress, isolation, and the struggle for work-life balance can hold you back from thriving—

I’ve been there, and it can be brutal.

At my lowest, I made the choice to rise above it, which led me to years of studying positive psychology, coaching, performance science, and neurohacks.

​

Along the way, I drew from my experience as a professional artist, years of mindfulness and Zen practice, and a passion for creating healthy habits and wellness protocols.

These tools not only transformed my life but have also empowered others to flourish in their own journeys.

Now, I’ve combined all these insights to create The Expat Blueprint—the guide I wish I’d had when I started my expat journey. It’s designed to help you turn stress and overwhelm into balance, clarity, and thriving success abroad.
