Reclaiming Power, Purpose & Presence with Marcia Hoffheins of Shift Makers

When you sit down with Marcia Hoffheins—also known to some as Marcialynn—you’re not just having a conversation. You’re being seen.

As the founder of Shift Makers, Marcia’s mission is to help women—and leaders of all types—reclaim their authentic voice, vitality, and sense of purpose. Drawing from over two decades as a yoga professional and executive coach, Marcia blends deep emotional intelligence with practical strategy, helping clients lead not only their organizations, but also their own lives, from a place of grounded integrity.

During our conversation, Marcia shared how her work naturally evolved to center around women, particularly those navigating the complexities of leadership—whether as CEOs, mothers, entrepreneurs, or all of the above. She emphasizes that we’re all leaders in our own right, and the true shift happens when we start seeing ourselves as the CEO of our own life.

Her coaching approach is rooted in three core values: integrity, ethics, and love. She shows up as the mirror and model—holding space for her clients to access their inner truth, question outdated narratives, and step forward with clarity and courage. Whether she’s coaching executives or guiding transformative retreats, Marcia is known for helping people feel seen, heard, and empowered to create real, lasting change.

One of the most fascinating aspects of her work is her use of Human Design, a system that combines ancient wisdom and modern science to decode how individuals are wired to operate. Through this lens, she helps leaders and teams not only understand themselves but honor their energetic flow—making room for joy, alignment, and better communication.

Marcia’s retreats are equally impactful—not because of any single “aha” moment she tries to engineer, but because she trusts that each guest will take exactly what they need. She shows up to serve, and lets the results unfold naturally. It’s this combination of presence and non-attachment that makes her work feel both deeply grounded and profoundly liberating.

Whether you connect with her through coaching, a retreat, a yoga class, or a simple conversation—you’ll walk away reminded of your worth, your wisdom, and your power to lead with love.
