Michelle helped me overcome burnout and low confidence, enabling me to realign with my values. Her effective, holistic, practical coaching helped me create the change I sought. I'm now confidently building my business as a full-time entrepreneur, and I wouldn't have been able to take this leap without Michelle's support, coaching and leadership.

Rachel Bonds
Consultant
I hired Michelle to help with my business. Her holistic coaching transformed my life, starting with my self-connection and prioritizing my well-being. I improved my relationships, emotional health, and financial abundance. With Michelle’s guidance, I confidently made decisions, bought my dream home, and set healthy boundaries. Her coaching boosted my self-confidence, freedom, and lifestyle.

Laurie Hinck
Business Owner
Coaching helped me start living my authentic best life. I left my job, and more importantly, I developed the confidence and trust in myself to lead the way. Working with Michelle is like being supported by a therapist, priestess, coach, and friend all in one! I felt truly held in her competent hands. When you falter along the way (because faltering is part of the deal), Michelle will lovingly pick you up and guide you back to yourself and the vision you have created. Having Michelle in your corner is a precious gift I will cherish forever.

Before Michelle, my work life was disorganized, and I was overworked and inefficient. Now, I have a thriving business. Michelle's support and accountability were crucial for creating change. She connects the dots and challenges you throughout your growth. Michelle is the best of the best.

Michelle is awesome, and if you are feeling stuck in your career, she can help you get excited about creating the shift you are craving. Within just a few sessions with Michelle, I committed to hatch my next project. Michelle offers a gentle structure and compassionate guidance. I am so grateful for how Michelle helped me integrate my spiritual practice into my work with my work! She really is my doula, helping me through these changes, one surge at a time, with the fierce calm and gentle groundedness of a bodhisattva.

Britt Fohrman
Pleasure Coach
Michelle is an excellent coach! What Michelle gave me was guidance based in a solid coaching framework and leveraging her strong intuition, empathy, and compassion--and humor--while working through a career transition. I have recommended her to friends and participated in a small group workshop where she used her considerable group facilitation skills to create a safe and engaging environment for collaborative coaching.
