Mara James
Know for her big heart and desire to heal and transform our broken world! Originally from New York, Mara James relocated to Orange County California with her husband and her three children in 2007. They established Dr. James’s OBGYN practice, and for seven years, Mara managed the busy office. Then, in 2014, Mara unexpectedly experienced a manic episode and was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. ? Through her battle with mental health, many wellness professionals helped Mara heal and transform her life. Mara’s experience—in addition to the experience of some of her close family members—has kindled in her a passion for forwarding the cause of children’s mental health. She established the Extraordinary Lives Foundation and created Piggie Bear to help promote children's mental health awareness & wellness and the HUGS for Life Healing center to provide both children and their parents with the resources they need to pursue holistic wellness in any and all avenues available. My foundation (www.elfempowers.org) focuses on Piggie Bear and the HUGS for Life Healing Center programs. www.elfwmpowers.org https://youtu.be/X3jwcukm https://www.facebook.com/ElfEmpowers https://www.instagram.com/elfempowers/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/16057615/admin/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/marajames/ https://drive.google.com/open?id=1FryToygJPzzec7yDm38AGU9ydzL390K0
