From 90 mph…to feeling more peaceful and organized and leading her team proactively

“When I first started working with Michelle, I was running through life at 90 mph. I wasn’t managing my time well, I didn’t feel organized, and I often showed up to meetings feeling unprepared. Basically, I was reacting to what was in front of me vs. taking charge and living life proactively.

Michelle had a gentle but firm approach, which was very powerful! Together, we figured out the systems and processes I needed to put in place to feel more in control of my life. I identified the triggers that caused my reactiveness and became more aware of my priorities. Then, I started blocking time on my calendar for strategic planning and proactive work, and in doing so – found that I was able to be more strategic and proactive in my approach to both my business and personal life. I practiced slowing down. I clarified my important goals. As a leader, it felt great to start delegating and lead my team proactively.

Through coaching, I’ve learned to take the time – daily and weekly – to prioritize for upcoming meetings and events. I’m evaluating situations before saying ‘yes’; in fact, I’m saying ‘no’, unless it will enrich my life. I feel peaceful and more organized and continue to be mindful of streamlining my approach.

Working with Michelle was a pleasure, and it’s apparent that she loves what she does! I felt the warmth and love in every contact with her, whether it was face-to-face, phone call, or email. She has surrounded herself with strong and talented women, and I love the social events she plans with the awesome women of LifeShine. Michelle’s coaching has absolutely enriched my life!”
