I’ve taught authors just like you how to get themselves featured in national media outlets including…Â
Like the clients featured on my Wall of Wisdom, you don’t have to DIY your publicity or hire a publicist for a Done for You approach. There’s a better way: Done with You.
Here's how we can work together:
1. The Fast Track
You’re an expert in your field with a book in the works or already in the world. But when it comes to author publicity and marketing your message in media, you need guidance from a true media insider, without a long-term commitment. In just 90 minutes, you'll have a strategy with actionable steps for your media success.
2. The Deep Dive
High-level, 6 month group coaching cohorts for up to eight disruptive women nonfiction authors who want to get high-profile publicity and confidently do national media interviews that drive book sales, boost business, and transform visibility into lasting impact.Â
3. VIP In-Person Media Accelerator Coaching

With my proprietary Media I.M.P.A.C.T. Method, you’ll finally have the framework for powerful publicity with purpose.
Choose the path that’s right for you:
90 Minute 1-1 Media Strategy Intensive
You're a soon-to-be or already published woman nonfiction author with a disruptive book and message, and you're an expert in your field.
But are you actually prepared for publicity?
You need to be, because high-level media strategy can be the difference between a book that sells and one that stagnates.
If you're not strategic, you may have lackluster book sales after publicity even if you're already doing podcasts or national media.
Every media interview should be a major opportunity for you as a woman nonfiction author - but that will only happen if you're prepared to maximize every moment with media strategy customized to your needs and goals. Get guidance from an Oprah Show veteran who knows the ins and outs of national media.

Testimonials
"My time in Mary’s program was incredibly beneficial.
Her lessons were practical, digestible, and the follow up we received during the week through our Zoom sessions helped me stay on track and apply what we were learning.
As a result, during the program I was featured on Bustle.com which had 50 million monthly visits. Shortly after completing the program, using what I learned from Mary, I was featured in two separate feature-length articles on Thrive Global, which had more than 10 million monthly visits.
Mary’s experience in the media industry, her seasoned wisdom, and her encouraging, supportive spirit made for an absolutely incredible experience.
I highly recommend Mary as a media mentor. She gets results!”

"Even as a writer, I’m challenged to articulate just how specific and edifying Mary’s coaching is. The secrets and strategies she shares; the personalized attention; the “I’m teaching you to fish” approach is incredibly eye-opening and empowering.
If you are lucky enough to be chosen by Mary as a client, do not squander this propitious moment in your life. It’s time to sit up and pay attention. Follow the program. Be patient. Mary knows what she’s doing. Take her hand, do exactly what she says, and let her do her thing - because she does it so well.
About 10 weeks in, you will be a sparkling, confident, competent media pitching machine; and you’ll know how to be a smart and strategic guest (Mary says, "It can’t just be a great conversation.) There’s sooooo much more to it than that, and Mary is THE one to teach you.”
