Malaysia Harrell is a spiritual transformation coach, speaker, author, and veteran who helps women find freedom and fulfillment. But really, she is a healer, an unleasher, and a light that leads women back to their true selves so they can live fully and finally.
With a deep, unwavering presence and an unmatched ability to merge science with spirit, Malaysia’s work transcends traditional coaching. As a licensed psychotherapist and board-certified clinical social worker, she combines clinical expertise with spiritual wisdom and intuitive guidance to guide women through the hardest seasons of life. Her unique approach allows her to help women overcome trauma, release shame, and step into authentic, joy-filled living.
Her journey to this sacred calling didn’t begin in a therapist’s office. It began in survival. Malaysia endured severe physical, emotional, and sexual trauma in childhood and learned to armor up in order to succeed. That armor, she says, served her well in the military and in her early career—but it suffocated her spirit. It wasn’t until she was hospitalized after deployment, misdiagnosed while in excruciating pain, and left to advocate for her own life that she met the truest version of herself. Doctors prepared to send her home. Her intuition—her faith—told her to speak up. That insistence led to a diagnosis of sepsis. What could have been the end became the beginning of a spiritual awakening.
That experience now shapes the way she shows up for every client. She doesn’t simply rely on clinical tools—she meets people soul to soul. Her sessions are an invitation to return home to the self, where healing is not just something offered, but something embodied.
She describes herself as not only a coach, but as a healer and an unleasher. To her, an unleasher is someone who helps women remember who they were before the world told them who to be—someone who excavates buried dreams, forgotten truths, and silenced voices. And a healer, in Malaysia’s view, is one who gently holds space for others to return to their own brilliance. In every conversation, workshop, or keynote, she’s not just delivering a message—she’s creating a moment of transformation.
Malaysia’s journey has always been guided by faith. She recalls that moment in the hospital—on the edge of death—as one where belief created a breakthrough that logic couldn’t. It was divine intuition that pushed her to advocate for herself, ultimately saving her life. That same belief later guided her as she transitioned out of the military and into a completely new realm: therapy, coaching, keynote speaking, authorship, and becoming a WOMLI United Nations Peace Ambassador. There were no blueprints, she says—just bold belief and divine alignment.
In her work, she sees a recurring theme among high-achieving women: the burden of perfectionism. Many of the women she coaches have been taught to equate worth with work, and value with performance. Malaysia helps them take the first, most radical step—removing the mask. She challenges them to release the narrative of “I am what I do” and embrace the truth of “I am who I am.” And when that shift takes root, she says, everything changes. Her clients begin showing up softer, more intuitive, and profoundly more powerful.
What makes her work truly unique is her ability to blend science and soul. She honors both evidence and energy. She can explain the impact of trauma on the brain and nervous system, but she’s just as likely to guide her clients through a prayer, a journal prompt, or a meditative breath. It’s not about choosing between clinical or spiritual—it’s about integration. And that’s where the real transformation happens.
Her own evolution has required many internal shifts. From soldier to therapist, to speaker, to author, each new identity required her to give herself permission—to declare that she was already enough. She had to release the fear, imposter syndrome, and need for outside validation that had once kept her playing small. As she celebrated the one-year anniversary of her retirement on May 1st, she recognized how much of her power she had reclaimed. No one handed it to her. She took it back.
Today, Malaysia is calling in more—but not more in the traditional sense. She no longer subscribes to hustle culture. Her “more” looks like ease, alignment, impact, softness, and miracles. She’s calling in international stages, deeper rest, transformational books, and connections that reach women she may never meet in person. She wants her work to be a ripple that transforms lives far beyond her own reach.
For the woman who stands on the edge of transformation, afraid to leap, Malaysia has a message. “You’ve already survived everything you thought would break you. This next leap? It’s not your breaking—it’s your becoming.” She reminds women that the fear is real—but so is the calling. “You are not too late. You are not too much. You are not broken. You are becoming,” she says. “And the world needs the version of you that’s not performing—but fully present.”
