Who I am
Hello!Elizabeth Marglin is a published author, journalist, writer, editor, and certified college essay coach. She is the co-author of The Wild & Sacred Feminine (Shambala Publications) and the forthcoming The Wild & Sacred Masculine. She writes for Yoga Journal, AARP, Prevention, Men's Health, and various other outlets. She has a MA in Journalism from CU Boulder and a BA from Columbia University.
She enjoys the pre-dawn, honest conversations, disco, poems that make her feel like the top of her head has been taken off, the Green River, fresh groomers, good hangs with her near and dear, bargains, coffee, satsang, superb surprises and undeniable synchronicities. She has traveled throughout Europe and India and is finally realizing that the Wizard of Oz had it right all along: Everything you need you have—you don’t have to look any further than your own backyard.
Elizabeth learned to love reading through close analysis of James Joyce’s Dubliners in high school, to love the sublime taking art history classes at Columbia, to love writing circles as a compliment to soul-searching while living in India, to love ledes and kickers through the University of Colorado Boulder’s journalism program, to love poetry during her difficult marriage and divorce, and to love the crafting the college essay when her son was applying to colleges (he's now happily in ensconced at Colorado College). Words have always been a friend—a way to see as well as a way to work with the unseen. Believe her when she says that words cure, guide, nourish and elevate.
