About

Hi, I'm Mardi Boettcher — teacher, spiritual life coach, Science of Mind Practitioner, and recovering knowledge collector.

Do you know what it's like to read all the books, study the principles, say the affirmations — and still feel like something's missing? Like you're doing everything right but not getting the results you were promised? I do. Because that was my story for 45 years.

I've always had a calling.

From my earliest teens I had a deep desire to help people live happier, more prosperous lives. That calling showed up everywhere — singing in the choir, Bible study, service clubs, volunteer work. In college at UC Berkeley I tutored inner-city kids and spent a summer doing community development work in Mexico. After graduation I served in the Peace Corps in Liberia, West Africa for four years as a teacher and teacher trainer. Helping people find their way has never been just a career for me. It's who I am.

Wayne Dyer changed everything

One day I heard Wayne Dyer on a radio talk show promoting his first book, Your Erroneous Zones. Reading it launched me into becoming a passionate student of personal and spiritual development. I was thrilled to discover that there were clear, practical principles for improving every area of life.

I became a devoted student of the spiritual masters — Napoleon Hill, Florence Scovel Shinn, Joseph Murphy, Ernest Holmes, Catherine Ponder, Emmet Fox. If it promised transformation, I read it. Often more than once.

For the next 45 years I read, studied, attended spiritual centers, made vision boards, said affirmations, and meditated. That knowledge enriched my life in real ways — it helped me raise my children, navigate two divorces, and survive the collapse of my real estate business in the recession of 2008. Even at 63, single and starting over financially, I had a deep conviction that everything was working for my highest good. And yet — something was still missing.

I knew the principles by heart. I could quote the masters. But knowing wasn't enough.

I'd read a book, feel inspired, begin practicing... and within weeks I'd be back to old patterns. There were moments I wondered if all of it was just "airy fairy" nonsense. Can you imagine how frustrated I felt after decades of sincere seeking?

What I finally discovered changed everything.

I was trying too hard! I was relying on my intellect and resisting the very thing I was studying — trusting Divine Wisdom to lead me. As I released that resistance and allowed Universal Intelligence to guide me, something shifted. Answers came. Inspiration moved me to action. And one day I manifested substantial unexpected income — enough to pay off my home — in a way that was truly miraculous.

That experience gave me something more valuable than the money itself. It gave me proof that spiritual law is real and can be relied upon.

And in working with clients, I've found the final missing piece: structure, consistency, and accountability. Tracking daily practices. Measuring results. Studying principles as a curriculum to master rather than just inspiration to consume.

And the best tool I've found is a book by the late Jack and Cornelia Addington, The Perfect Power Within You.

Of all the books I've studied, this one stands apart. The Addingtons took Ernest Holmes' Science of Mind philosophy — the same principles that have influenced thought leaders from Wayne Dyer to Deepak Chopra — and presents them in remarkably clear, practical, easy-to-understand language. More importantly, the daily affirmations provide a proven technique for actually reprogramming habitual thought patterns – not just understanding the principles intellectually — but rewiring the thinking that has been getting in the way.

A Simple, Easy, Self-Study Course

The book was designed as a self-study course, and its most remarkable results came when inmates in a prison program used it in a weekly group setting. The combination of the material, the repetition, and the community support made all the difference.

That's exactly the model I use. The book provides the foundation. Weekly meetings provide the structure and support. Having a coach means someone is walking alongside you, answering your questions, helping you apply the principles to YOUR specific situation and keeping you accountable when old patterns try to pull you back.

Information Without Action is Merely Entertainment

Experience has shown that information without action is merely entertainment and it takes accountability and support in order to take action consistently.

Here's what I know for sure...

There is a power within you greater than any situation, circumstance, or condition. Your past does not determine your future. The dreams in your heart are nudges from your Higher Power urging you to live your best life. You are meant to experience vibrant health, true prosperity, joy and peace of mind.

If you can't fully believe that right now, I understand. Even after 45 years of studying these principles I had my own moments of doubt. So lean on my belief until yours grows stronger — that's exactly what a guide is for.

Live the Wisdom You Have Been Collecting

I'm not here to give you another book to add to your shelf. I'm here to help you finally live the wisdom you've been collecting.

Let's get together for a Discovery Call (there's no fee or obligation). We'll come up with a plan of action.

There's no pressure and no obligation — just an authentic conversation about where you are and how you can make it shift.
