What if this were just the beginning of...
the life you've
always dreamed of?
Here's the honest truth:
Before you can get what you want, you need to rediscover what you truly value. As you go through life and deal with its challenges, it is easy to get pulled in different directions and take on other people's agendas and sense of urgency. You can forget what really moves you and what you value most in life.
That's where I come in. I help women—just like you—re-establish their priorities while navigating the turbulence of mid-life. From there we create a framework to help you achieve your deepest desires based on your true core values. From insomnia to weight gain (and everything in between!), I help women face the unique challenges of this time of life by doing the internal work that translates into physical and tangible results.
Improved health, fitness, flexibility and more is achieved through this deep inner work. We start from the inside-out, allowing your radiant self to finally shine through.
Be in service to others at the expense of yourself.
As a wife, mother, daughter to aging and ailing parents, teacher, coach, and business owner, I have had to deal with a lot. While my life has brought me boundless joy and satisfaction, my responsibilities have sometimes been overwhelming. There have been many times when I have felt forced to place my needs behind others'. On those occasions, I felt like I was losing myself, that what I needed really didn't matter, or at least it mattered a lot less than what other people needed. Now, while I definitely don't have it all figured out, these experiences have taught me the importance of focusing on what you value and generating a life where those values are lived. It doesn't mean that you abandon your responsibilities, it's setting appropriate boundaries, reevaluating and reaffirming what is really important to you, what gives your life relevance and meaning, and focusing your energy in that direction.

"Undoubtedly the best decision
I have made in years."
Michelle’s style of coaching gave room for my own psyche/unconscious to rise up and be heard. In the safe space she created during our sessions, I could honor all parts of myself that I often ignore in the hectic pace of a busy life. These were the “aha” moments that I desperately needed to navigate the transitions I was experiencing.

Worried that you're too old to reinvent yourself?
It's true that change can be overwhelming. Ingrained thought patterns and behaviors may leave you wondering where to even begin. But I don't believe in "too old" or "too late." Those are simply limiting beliefs that are robbing you from the best years of your life!
We’ll start by identifying who you are and what you most value. We'll highlight your successes and build on them. With a framework to carry those things into your future, we'll create the comfort and confidence you need to persevere and overcome any obstacles.
The real question isn't whether you're "too old," but why wait another minute to start living the life you've always wanted?

I have no idea what I want or need to make my life better. Shouldn’t I figure that out first?
Actually the process of coaching is exactly how you figure that out. We work together to determine your true priorities and set you up to start living them.
BACK TO QUESTIONS
Isn’t it too late for me to start something new?
It’s the perfect time! At this point in your life you’ve acquired an abundance of experiences and skills of which you may not be fully aware. Have you heard the saying, “If you want something done, ask a busy woman?” At this point in your life, you have developed a multitude of skills and wisdom that translate to success. Running a household and raising children, you have been a teacher, scheduler, accountant, administrator, nurse, cook, chauffer, accountant, psychologist, and travel agent, among many other things. You are prepared and ready for success. A coach helps you recognize all your assets and see how they will be applied to this new stage of your life.
BACK TO QUESTIONS
Is this therapy?
No. In therapy, the patient works with a licensed healthcare provider for an extended period of time to diagnose and resolve problems with feelings, beliefs or behaviors that are often associated with past traumas or other issues.
In coaching, while we try to identify what motivates you, we accept who you are and where you have been and develop ways to help you overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. Generally speaking, we focus on the future, while therapists focus more on the past.
BACK TO QUESTIONS
Is the process difficult?
Figuring out what you want to do and how to do it isn’t easy. That is why most people need a coach to guide them and help them stay on track. You will have to work hard and participate fully in the process. I will work with you every step of the way, and your hard work will make this a deeply energizing and satisfying experience.
