When your health shifts, everything else shifts with it.

I'm Michelle — and I'd love to be the partner you've been missing. Someone who gets what you're navigating, asks the right questions, and helps you build a way of living that actually feels like yours.

Come into focus, come alive.

My practice

Three dimensions. One integrated practice.

My work brings health, wellness, and life into one coherent whole — because the truth is, they're never really separate. How you feel in your body shapes how you show up in your life, and what you value shapes everything else. I work at all three levels, together.

♥

Feel Well

Health

Health is often where we start — the body asking for attention, energy wanting to return. Together we build habits that fit your actual life, not an idealized version of it. Evidence-based, grounded, and genuinely yours.

◉

Live Fully

Wellness

Wellness is the wider circle — how you rest, handle stress, connect with others, and make space for what restores you. This is where health becomes less of a project and more of a way of being.

Move Forward with Clarity

Life

This is where direction takes shape. We clarify your values, untangle what's pulling at you, and build toward a life that actually reflects who you are — not just what's expected of you.

A bit about me

I'm not coaching from a textbook. I'm coaching from a life.

I've been coaching people through meaningful change for most of my career — first inside organizations, as a talent development and learning leader, and now here, in the space where health and life intersect. The setting has changed. The work hasn't.

I've been navigating chronic autoimmune illness for over 20 years. That's not a footnote — it's the thread running through everything I do here.

Through my certification as an Integrative Health Coach with the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I've deepened and specialized that practice — adding a whole-person health lens that most coaching never reaches. What I bring to you is the combination of over 15 years of coaching experience, evidence-informed health knowledge, and the genuine understanding that comes from having lived exactly what you might be navigating.

I work with clients managing chronic or long-term health conditions, navigating health transitions, rebuilding sustainable wellness habits, and finding their way toward a life that feels more intentional. I'm not here to hand you a plan. I'm here to help you find your own.

How I work with you

The work, and what it looks like in practice.

Everything I offer is built around depth, real personalization, and coaching that meets you where you actually are. All sessions are delivered virtually, so we can work together wherever you are in the country.

01

1-on-1 Health Coaching

We work through nutrition, movement, sleep, energy, and the habits that make or break how you feel day to day. I'm especially well-suited to working with you if you're navigating a chronic illness, hormonal shifts, or a GLP-1 medication transition — because I've lived this terrain too.

02

1-on-1 Wellness Coaching

If stress, burnout, or the relentless demands of modern life have pulled you away from yourself — this is the work that brings you back. We build real, sustainable self-care that fits your life, not someone else's ideal version of it.

03

Life Coaching

When something needs to shift — a direction, a chapter, a sense of who you are on the other side of a big change — this is the work. We clarify what you value, untangle what's in the way, and build toward something that genuinely feels like yours.

04

Group Programs

Cohort-based experiences where coaching meets community. Small groups — six to ten people — with weekly live sessions and a shared support structure. I run these periodically; reach out to get on the list for the next one.

05

Corporate Wellness

Workshops and programs for organizations that are serious about investing in their people's health and performance. My background in learning and organizational development means I understand how to make this work in your context — not just in theory.

Courses & Webinars

Self-paced online courses and virtual webinars you can access on your own time, wherever you are. A flexible, lower-commitment way to start learning and building healthy habits — without needing to commit to a full coaching engagement right away.

Is this for you?

I don't work with a type of person. I work with people at a particular kind of moment.

My clients come from all walks of life — different ages, backgrounds, and starting points. What brings them to me isn't a shared identity. It's a shared feeling. Something has stirred. Something is ready to shift. And they've decided this is the moment to do something about it.

When your body is asking to be taken care of

"I know I haven't been looking after myself the way I want to — and I'm ready to change that, in a way that actually lasts."

If that sounds familiar, I'd love to work with you. Not on a program you white-knuckle through, but on a real, sustainable relationship with your own health — one that fits your life and reflects your values.

When chronic or long-term health challenges are part of your picture

"I've been managing this for a long time and I'm tired of doing it alone — or not doing it well."

I know this experience from the inside. Coaching here isn't about fixing what can't be fixed — it's about building a life that is genuinely well-lived within whatever your health reality is.

When wellness feels out of reach

"Everything keeps pulling me in different directions. I'm exhausted, stressed, and not sure how to find my way back to myself."

Let's slow down together. My job is to create the space you haven't had — to reconnect with what matters to you and start building from there, at a pace that actually holds.

When life is asking for a new direction

"Something significant has changed — and I'm not sure who I am or what I want on the other side of it."

Transitions are some of the most fertile ground for this work, because the old structures no longer hold — which means there's real room to build something more intentional. I love working in this space.

How I think about this work

Purpose first. Everything else follows.

Purpose

Knowing what matters is what makes change possible.

Personalization

Your values, your pace, your path — always.

Wholeness

Mind, body, and spirit as one connected self.

Vitality

Health as a living expression of a well-rooted life.

Growth

Every step forward, however small, matters.

The Journey

Progress lives in the path, not only the destination.

"True transformation lives at the intersection of a healthy body, a clear mind, and a life guided by purpose."

Here's what I believe: you already have what you need to create real change. My job is to help you find it, trust it, and build from it — at your own pace, in your own way. I'm not bringing you a map. I'm helping you draw your own.


Real, lasting change comes from the inside out. Not from a prescribed plan handed down from above, but from a deeply personal understanding of who you are, what you value, and what a genuinely healthy and fulfilling life looks and feels like — for you, specifically. That understanding is something we explore and build together, and it's where I find the work becomes truly transformational.


I also bring something to this work that no certification can teach: over 30 years of navigating my own chronic illness, alongside more than 15 years of coaching people through change. I don't ask anything of you that I haven't asked of myself.
