Again and again, we saw the same pattern: women carrying too much, caring deeply, and quietly questioning themselves while holding full, real lives together. Higher Self Studios was created as a response to that knowing — and a belief that when one woman reconnects with herself, the impact reaches far beyond her.

What began as conversations between two best friends about intuition, burnout, ambition, & self-trust revealed something bigger.

Our mission is to help women return to their inner authority 

Emotionally, spiritually, and energetically — in a way that is grounded, practical, and lived. We exist to reconnect women with their intuition as a form of intelligence and self-leadership, not something mystical or exclusive. Intuition here is something you build a relationship with, strengthen over time, and trust in the moments that matter.

& the
REAL WORLD

the
SPIRITUAL

Our work bridges

Through intuitive development, emotional mastery, energetic boundaries, universal principles, and telepathic animal communication, we teach women how to listen more deeply — to themselves, to others, and to the natural world. Animals are part of this work because they reflect regulation, presence, and truth without performance. They remind us what it looks like to live in alignment.

At Higher Self Studios, we believe personal growth is never just personal.

When you regulate your nervous system, reclaim your self-trust, and lead your life with clarity, the ripple effect is unavoidable. Your relationships shift. Your communication softens and sharpens at the same time. Your family feels it. Your friends feel it. Your coworkers experience it. And the patterns you interrupt today shape future generations in ways you may never fully see — but will always matter.

Higher Self Studios is more than education. It’s a collective. A community rooted in depth, integrity, accountability, and compassion — where women feel supported, seen, and safe to grow, while also being held to standards that foster responsibility, empowerment, and real transformation.

We don’t subscribe to escapist spirituality, victimhood, or bypassing the human experience. 

We don’t subscribe to escapist spirituality, victimhood, or bypassing the human experience. We serve women who live in the real world — women with careers, families, responsibilities, and ambition — who want spirituality that strengthens their lives and expands their impact.

This work is about remembering who you are, reclaiming your authority, and understanding that when you rise, you don’t rise alone. You change the lives of everyone connected to you — now, and for generations to come.

Marissa grew up as a competitive cheerleader (including competing at Worlds) and an avid soccer player. Megan played libero in volleyball, ran track (and long & triple jump), and studied saxophone and piano — movement and discipline have always been part of both our lives.

growing up

We genuinely love cold plunges and sauna work. We’ve experienced firsthand how intentional hot–cold exposure supports clarity, resilience, and nervous system regulation — and we’re always experimenting on ourselves first.

Something We Both Love

Marissa loves time with her family, football Sundays, and unplugging into the Harry Potter universe. Megan also loves time with her family, pole dancing, and getting lost in a good romantasy novel.

What brings us joy

Outside of Higher Self Studios, Marissa works as a Physician Assistant, and Megan works as a Senior Account Manager in Tech — two very different careers that ground us in the real world.
