Originally from Russia and raised in the US, Marina developed an early passion for magazines and storytelling. Her professional journey eventually led her to create Hugimals, a successful wellness toy company producing weighted stuffed animals designed to provide comfort, reduce anxiety, and improve sleep for both kids and adults. Her background blends wellness journalism with entrepreneurship, focusing on emotional wellbeing and self-care.

Her book "Your Time to Thrive: End Burnout, Increase Well-being, and Unlock Your Full Potential with the New Science of Microsteps" builds on her expertise in mental wellness. It offers practical, science-backed techniques that use small, manageable actions (microsteps) to help people overcome burnout, build resilience, and improve overall well-being. The book encourages readers to harness incremental, sustainable changes rather than drastic overhauls, making self-care and personal growth accessible and achievable.
