Hi

I'm Mariel

Created to Create

Leading with Creativity

I've always been a creative. I was working toward a career in the arts when Jesus called me into full time ministry.

 

I love musical theater, playing guitar and piano, Irish dancing and clog dancing, and Shakespeare. You can also spot me in several tv shows and films made in Georgia. 


Writing is one of my greatest passions—I knew that from the time I was in kindergarten. Growing up, I'd spend my time writing poetry, plays, and fictional short stories. It's amazing to let the Lord use my love for writing and my prophetic gift to encourage others now through media.


In 2024, I released my first book, Prophetic Promises.


In 2022, I created a prophetic jewelry collection— including my popular prophetic number necklaces. You can learn more about the next jewelry fundraiser here.​​

​

When I'm not talking about Jesus, you might find me playing banana grams with friends, onstage in a Shakespeare play, or writing at a local coffee shop.

Hi, I'm Mariel

All of God's promises are yes & amen

I am here to encourage you to lean into the Lord's voice for your life—to follow his pathway to your prophetic promises.

Though the journey can get lonely, tough, and long, the process is so worth the promise fulfilled.

Jesus is worthy of our every "yes" we give to follow him on this wild, wonderful, weighty, and often whimsical prophetic journey.
 

I'm a passionate encourager, speaker, latte enthusiast, dog mom, and writer. After graduating from college, I took a leap of faith to attend Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry in Redding, CA. An Atlanta native, I returned to Georgia after finishing school to answer God's call to

"Spread revival fire across the southeast of America."

​

What a journey it has been!

​

Since that time, I have traveled around the United States, Canada, and overseas to share the love of God and teach others how to hear His voice and deepen their relationship with Jesus.

​

Through my ministry, the Embolden Co., I now hold seasonal mentorships and trainings for women and men all over the world to help people develop their spiritual gifts and hear God for their lives and the world around them.

 

While we have an emphasis of training on the prophetic gift with a strong biblical foundation, our ultimate goal is to see Jesus bring revival to the nations and raise up leaders to fulfill the great commission.

​

Our prophetic programs have now raised up men and women in 42 different states and 27 countries! Praise God! 

​

We also hold annual destination retreats to cultivate a peaceful place to encounter the presence of God.​

But one who prophesies strengthens others, encourages them,
and comforts them. 

1 Corinthians 14:3

Notable Achievments


In July 2021, Mariel founded The Embolden Company, a 501c3 ministry dedicated to bringing revival to the nations. She is a legally ordained minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ and has led prophetic training at conferences across the U.S and Canada with Take the City, based in Columbus, GA

​

Her writing is published in Increase, a publication documenting supernatural testimonies of Jesus transforming lives. Her writing and prophetic words have been featured in such publications as the Elijah List, Charisma News, and Outreach Magazine.

​

She published her first book, Prophetic Promises, in June 2024.
​

Her most notable achievement is knowing Jesus as a friend.
He is the treasure in the field, and He is preparing His bride from
every nation, tribe, and tongue.
