Went from feeling lost…to finding herself

“Initially I felt lost. One chapter in my life was ending and another was beginning. But after 19 years of raising kids, I had no idea who I was anymore, what I liked to do, what I should do next, or what my purpose was. I was searching for my own identity and wondering what would give me meaning in life.

Through our coaching process, Michelle helped me let go of many things standing in my way. Like perfectionism, negative self-talk, worrying about what others think, ‘shoulds’, guilt for wanting a life of my own, and lack of control over my calendar with poor follow-through. I learned to let go of the fear that held me back. I have learned so much about myself!

Now I focus on what I can control and I build in more time for me. I better manage my time and energy. I’m more confident and independent. I have a feeling of peace and a clearer sense of who I am and what I want my life to look like. I feel like I’m finally becoming who I was always meant to be.

Michelle did an awesome job of listening, sometimes to what I wasn’t saying as well as what I was! I always felt heard and acknowledged, never judged. Michelle was always well prepared, often with resources, tools, or exercises that might help. She was very cognizant of my best or preferred way of operating and always helped me see things through a different lens – to see a different perspective – which was SO helpful!

In coaching, I clarified my goals and dreams. I discovered my life purpose. I outlined the things that bring me joy. Coaching was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Coaching has been a game changer for me – it’s been worth every penny and every second! I took something awesome out of every session!”
