When Marilynn isn't writing, her healthy lifestyle routine includes yoga, race walking, strength training, kayaking, golf, cycling, wine tasting and as much adventure travel as she can fit in.

Her next big adventure is getting people to read All is Well: The Covid Edition to create their healthiest, happiest lives.
