About Michelle
I’m Michele... Mum of 2 boys, wife & Mindful Self-Care Coach with 20 years experience in holistic therapies, meditation, mindfulness & life coaching. Following a breakdown in 2017 due to stressful house renovations with a young baby & my husband almost dying of sepsis in 2019, I committed to a journey of rebuilding my nervous system & self-growth. I’ve never looked back & every day I intend to be the calmest, happiest & best version of myself... for myself, my family & everyone around me.
My family & I recently moved from Dorset to Scotland because we wanted a new adventure & to shake up life! Life is for living & feeling after all! I’m passionate about helping overwhelmed Working Mums create more time in your busy days for self-care & for the things & people you love. My biggest desire is for you to feel calmer, master your dream work-life balance, & to feel fulfilled & abundant in all areas of life. Let's get you from living on autopilot to taking the reins of your life!
