My name is Maria Kellis. I am a Leadership Coach, Intuitive Business Consultant, Inspirational Speaker, and Best-Selling Author.

I work with business leaders, intrapreneurs, and entrepreneurs to strengthen their leadership and create successful products and services that are aligned with their true voice.

I am originally from Greece. Now I am focused on teaching through Maria Kellis International, a company operating globally with clients from over 15 countries.

I hold 3 MIT degrees (Engineering School and Sloan School of Management) and I was involved in teaching entrepreneurship classes at the Sloan School even as a student as well as in organizing the 50K competition (and having one of my companies be a runner up).

Besides co-founding multiple technology companies in the US, I worked in high-level positions for the Greek government.

These days I share my time between Thailand, Greece, Cyprus, Bali, and the United States.

For myself, I achieved a life of independence and freedom and since then I have been focusing on teaching others how to achieve the same. The question I am focusing on now is “how can we do it even faster?” and that is what is driving my work.

Maria is an exceptional human being who brings a level of excellence to everything she does. She is a focused, dedicated action-taker! Her beautiful energy permeates through every project that she is involved in and she is exceptionally dedicated to making the world a better place for all of us, and for future generations to come. I would highly recommend working with Maria.

We all need love, and light, and goodness in our lives, and Maria is that, personified. Each session I have with her completely changes my energy, how I feel, and how I present myself to the world. Maria was instrumental in getting me through the death of my brother and giving me the courage to follow my dreams. I now have a career I love and lightness in my heart. I can't recommend her enough!

I've been in the finance industry. I met Maria through a very dear friend who recommended her. I'm curious by nature and I love exploring different modalities for becoming a stronger leader. Maria's method is very unique. She brings something that I haven't seen anywhere else and it allowed me to fast-track into results. Maria really helped me get clarity and focus and understanding. She supported me in bringing a structure to my dreams and aspirations. Her coaching is very intense and she is committed to her work and her teachings. Maria really watches out for you, and takes care of you and she's really hands-on. As a result, I have managed to find inner peace and feel calm.

I was amazed that in a such short period of time, Maria was able to support me in discovering the tools and techniques that I needed to understand the challenges I was facing. Maria helped me understand that I am actually more of a “sensitive” person than I knew myself to be and that masking my sensitivity with my “tough girl” attitude was causing difficulties in my worklife, my relationships, and also causing my body to break down. Now I am able to work better, and feel better too!

It has been a unique privilege to work with Maria over a period of several months. My experience with her taught me how to move energy as a way of being. It has been an ongoing practice and I follow her teachings and steps she taught me in my daily practice. In the process I have learned to fall in love with myself and with my life! I find that the most precious and effective aspect of our collaboration was definitely our one-on-one conversations and I highly recommend the private coaching. Maria is unique in her work.

Maria is one of those special people who can question, challenge, and guide you to fix and upgrade your mind and body. From my experience, I can describe her as a “Brilliant Blindspot Doctor” - she can spot and highlight your blindspots from a mile away and also go on to help you fix them. The problem could be anywhere - business, life, mind, body, or brain - Maria will have an insight that you don’t want to miss.

Maria has been blessed with gifts that she is generously using for healing! In our interactions she touched me with her kindness, humanity and warmth! I am happy that a woman healer of your abilities exists on the planet at this time. It gives me hope for the future!

Maria is a kind person with tremendous energy and love. She really did her best to help and guide me The energy within her was so powerful and peaceful, I felt much inspired and encouraged during our sessions. Her words were with wisdom and love that could touch your heart. You could probably read similar words in books or online. However, you might never feel connected to them. Every time I reviewed the sessions we had, I picked up some new wisdom. She really helped me clear my obstacles to success, wealth, and abundance, and changed my view of the world and life. I was confused, hopeless and aimless when I came to her. Now I feel so inspired, hopeful and confident, and I am ready to create the life of my dreams.

Working with Maria Kellis has allowed me to uplevel in my business and personal life at quantum speed. She teaches you how to tune in to the “energy frequencies” that exist inside of each of us. Just by hearing her voice you will experience a profound shift in your energy, that could alone, change everything for you. I consider her a precious part of my team and highly recommend working with her.

My wife and I have participated in a program with Maria. Maria had shown incredible insight as a mentor and intuitive coach. Her guidance and support made it possible for us to achieve our goals and dreams in a very short time. She was very helpful to keep us on track with our goals.

I was lost but now I am found thanks to Maria! Maria helped me pinpoint some of the limitations in my life and how they were impacting my business.  Her probing questions have had me dig deep within myself to face my limiting beliefs and to find my strengths. She has empowered me to make the best decisions for me, for my business, and my clients with confidence.  With her guidance I have become a true leader tapping into my authenticity, serving others with integrity and following ethically my values. Maria has assisted me to dream; to dream BIG!  Maria has helped me trust myself and unleash my full potential. Maria’s wisdom and her teachings touch one’s soul so deeply that you are changed forever.

Maria Kellis has a gift. She can see right through your soul and projects compassion into your heart. Her presence can be called “holy” and her words are loving. I’ve had the privilege to work with Maria for a few years. Her clairvoyant gifts, fascinating diverse life and sharp intellect help to provide for a very intense experience. Our lives can be complicated and she is here to help us solve the puzzles. Sometimes we need more than just a shoulder to cry on, we need to be challenged, to be seen, to be pushed to evolve. Thank you Maria for sharing your gifts and helping me be a stronger, more loving, more integrated being.
