What others are saying
" I leave a changed woman. I see that the challenges that brought me to Michelle have not gone away. They are part of me. The pain, resentment, anger, fear ... I no longer devalue them or try to "fix" them."
Michelle's honesty and vulnerability are what make her unique in this field. She is raw and real. She shows up as she is and holds space for you as you are. She is more knowledgeable than any therapist, seminar, friend or book I have ever come across. She is compassionate while being completely professional. She has no judgement and finds ways to provide examples of others who have faced similar issues. She approaches everything with love in her heart. She just can't help it.
"I admit it. Sometimes I get irritated with the spiritual leaders who look “perfect” and untouchable. This is worse for me if they actually claim that they no longer have human defects or concerns. It makes me want to barf. I think that’s because I can feel that it is spiritual bypass, that it is untrue, and worse- that it is DANGEROUS because people who fall for that stuff end up stuck in cults. YUCK.
But then sometimes I meet a leader who is SO EMBODIED in their wisdom… so REAL. And THAT is what I admire. I can feel their alignment with not only their best gifts, but also with the challenges, the embarrassments, the lessons they are still working in their lives. To me, that is Leadership."
"Michelle’s workshop on how to say what you do with authenticity blew me out of the water. I’ve been struggling with this issue for years. I have real anxiety that keeps me from going to networking events because of the simple question, What do you do. The small group was really conducive for going deep and feeling safe. Michelle’s exercises allowed me to break out of my uncomfortable comfort zone and actually drop in and GET REAL with the passion of what I do. I was able to practice, including stumbling, falling and getting back up, without having to risk, blowing my “first impression”. I highly recommend anyone who is a solopreneur or any trainers of solopreneurs to engage with Michelle and her programs. She teaches what so many of us in coach programs are craving. A path through our discomfort, into our authentically powerful expression of what we do.

"She reminded me that I am stronger than my trauma and I was doing brave and powerful work!
"Michelle's work is dynamic and draws from an impressive range of modality offerings, it's so nice to have access to her more traditional AND somatic tools as I believe they actually go hand-in-hand, with the grace of a dancer, she moves you subtly in and out of the cerebral and the embodied for your custom remedy- a true healer!"
"Her grounded, intuitive presence helped me feel incredibly safe, which allowed the deeper layers to surface.
What surprised me most was how much I could feel and release without needing to talk everything out. It was like accessing a deeper intelligence within my body.
Since our sessions, I’ve noticed a huge shift: I feel more calm and centered in my day-to-day life, and situations that used to trigger me don’t have the same hold. There’s more spaciousness in my mind and more compassion toward myself. I’m more productive and clear-headed, and relationships that felt tense or draining have either transformed or naturally fallen away.
What feels possible now is a deeper trust in myself and my intuition. I no longer feel stuck in old loops—I feel like I’m finally moving forward with clarity and confidence.
Working with Michelle has been one of the most impactful decisions I’ve made for my healing and growth. I’m so grateful for her and her array of magical skills"
"When I was seeking healing to explore my triggers and core wounds, I knew that Michelle’s expertise, experience, and gentleness would make a match for me. Throughout our intensive, she held a container that made me feel safe and encouraged me to explore my edges. As a healer, I know where to go to get the medicine I need. Following our session, I felt empowered. I was clear on my strengths and ready to take them into the world. I recommend Michelle to everyone I can. Her work is exemplary. "
