Meet the Owner of Mindful LifeÂ
KATHY MARVEL
As an educator with 30 years of experience as an elementary school classroom teacher and Instructional Coach, my background in mindfulness is extensive. Through Dr. Kristen Race’s online teacher course, mindfulness became a passion of mine both personally and professionally inside my classroom each year.Â
Although my career was in the public school system, I am also an author, speaker, podcaster, boy mom and wife. I am lucky to now call Mindful Life my own with the hopes of bringing mindfulness to students, teachers, schools, parents, homes, and workplaces around the world.Â

Meet the Founder
DR. KRISTEN RACE
Over the course of my career, as a teacher, psychologist, parent, public speaker, author, researcher and educational consultant through the pandemic, I’ve experienced every aspect of the stress and overwhelm that school communities are trying to navigate.Â
And for the last 15 years I’ve relied on mindfulness, neuroscience, and small changes to navigate all of life’s challenges. These three pillars are at the core of all my talks and my programs. We’ve used these core principles to develop all of the Mindful Life curricula and to train more than 100,000 education and business leaders across the globe.
