What
they say about Mary
“Your presence among us as the key note speaker of
our conference helped to create a strong experience of community
that was exciting and refreshing. A number of our participants
described your talk as healing as well as informative.”
- Bob Salt,
Body Mind & Spirit Conference,
University of Wisconsin
“Mary Hayes Grieco’s talent lies in showing us
where the kitchen sink and the cosmos come together, and where
the rubber meets the road with making spirituality real in daily
life. Her style is a cross between Erma Bombeck and Joseph Campbell.”
- Program participant
“Mary Hayes Grieco is optimistic, passionate, enthusiastic.
If you’d like to spend an afternoon or an evening with Mary’s
wisdom, I suggest you pick up The Kitchen Mystic and put the kettle
on to boil.”
-Roseanne Bane
The Phoenix

wonder, self-examination, magic, growth, loss – everything
that goes into the sensational stew called living. Love her!”
