I have been where you are.
There was a time in my life where I didn’t feel safe at home and I didn’t know if my marriage would survive.
As a mom, I’ve experienced a season in my life of heart-wrenching despair watching my child battle drug addiction.
The loss of a grandchild brought me excruciating grief. I was surprised by the intense grief I experienced not only by my loss but also watching my son AND HIS FAMILY grieve.
Navigating through my own recovery journey, becoming a BALM Certified Family Recovery Life Coach, PCC and a Certified Family Recovery Specialist has equipped me to compassionately serve you.
Leviticus 6:13 NIV is my life verse that I aim to live by: “The fire on the altar must be kept burning continuously; it must not go out.”
Come experience the fire on the altar of your heart burning continuously as together we embrace God’s presence through birthing prayer (intercession and worship)! You will be forever changed. Not only am I a family recovery life coach but, I am also an Intercessor with a heart for families.

This ministry is dedicated in loving memory of Dustin Andrew Boryszewski, my grandson, who went home to heaven way too early. His little life of 3 months still lives on as I work to help families heal. Dustin was born on October 27, 2008 and died exactly three months later on January 27, 2009.
Heart Ablaze Restoration Ministries is a faith-based non-profit corporation whose mission is to bring the fire of God’s love and healing to the hurting.
I now have so much peace and joy as Marlene has been so beautifully helping me gain insight and understanding in the very rough family circumstances that I am in and working through. If anyone is in a difficult situation and needs guidance and compassion and a whole lot of wisdom then I strongly recommend contacting Marlene! She is a great listener who is so honest and non-judgmental. She’s motivated me to dig deep to find my true passions and purpose in life!
Marlene has walked with me through many issues. She is present every moment and engages her love of God and other people to support them as they process whatever is happening in their life at that point in time. I can unequivocally say that anyone who has the privilege of being coached by Marlene will be forever changed! Lori B.
Marlene has impacted my life for the past two years in indescribable ways as she walked me through difficult dynamics in my broken marriage and family. Her guidance and coaching have given me strength and support, taught me how to be more effective in communication and helped me navigate and make decisions on my challenging journey. I love how she offers to add powerful prayers in our sessions, which is one of my favorite things about her! Karen
Marlene’s style of coaching with kindness and love have allowed me to explore the very core of my sadness and fears surrounding my daughter’s journey in substance use disorder with gentleness, love and prayers that have uplifted me and given me hope. She has always stayed connected with me and I feel like she is in the journey right beside me. If you have the opportunity to work with Marlene, you will also be blessed with a kind and supportive coach who puts her whole heart into her work.
Marlene has been a double blessing to me as a family recovery life coach and prayer partner. I love to hear her wisdom and insight in sharing God’s Word to uplift, edify, and give knowledge in dealing with family issues. In our 4-year relationship, Marlene has been a God ordained gift from Jesus in my life!
Knowing Marlene for about 30 years, having counseled with many over my 80 years, she is one in a million and by far a gifted coach. Marlene introduced me to the BALM (Be A Loving Mirror) family recovery approach and she has taught me how to be a loving mirror to my daughter. We have a very healed, loving relationship today.
As Marlene gets to know you, you therefore, get to know yourself. This is a gift to yourself that will keep on giving not only benefiting you but, for the enrichment of all that surround you. Marlene is genuine. She comes alongside you. You can have complete confidence in her nonjudgmental outlook and confidentiality. She treasures your heart, listens extremely well, and is a sounding board. As a result of her coaching, now I’m not only “unstuck”, but sailing ahead into the direction of destiny God has already planned for me. If you’re reading this and on the edge of your decision, hesitate no more. It’s the best decision I’ve ever made. Lori
