You don't need to become someone else to speak with power. You need to unlock who you already are.

I help women leaders find their voice, share their story, and own any stage bridging the gap between who you are inside and who you allow yourself to be outside.

Truth Activator. Professional Permission-Giver...

Hello, I am Michelle!

My Story

I was the kid who got in trouble for talking too much. Who loved the stage, singing, dancing, speaking. But somewhere along the way, I learned I was "too much." So I did what so many of us do: I dimmed myself to fit.

I followed the script. University. Corporate leadership. Marriage. A home. For 20 Plus Years , I started businesses, climbed the corporate property ladder, led teams, proved my worth.

But I wasn't living my truth—I was living everyone else's version of what I should be.

At 40, a surprise pregnancy with my third son stopped me in my tracks. I looked at my life and realized, this wasn't what I thought it would be. I had two older boys at home that I barely knew. A husband I was disconnected from. My life was wrapped up in a career I no longer loved.

I knew at that point things needed to change. I needed to live differently. To find work that lights me up. To be the mum I dreamed of being. To be a wife who was present with her husband. To be there for my aging parents. To live life the way I wanted.

So at 43, I set on the challenge to follow my dreams , I left corporate. Not just to build a business, but to come home to that little girl who belonged on the stage. To stop asking "What should I do?" and start asking "What is true for me?"

I know first hand how hard it is to juggle motherhood, a career, and aging parents. But being a mum shouldn't limit your potential or dreams. That journey—the layers, the unlearning, the rediscovery—is why I do this work now.

WHAT I BELIEVE

Living and speaking your Truth is your pathway to freedom.

Most women don't struggle to speak because they lack confidence. They struggle because there's a gap between who they are inside and who they allow themselves to be outside.

You've been told you're too much. Too loud. Too opinionated. Too emotional. Too ambitious. So you've learned to manage how you're perceived instead of expressing who you actually are.

But your voice isn't a problem to fix. It's a truth to unlock.

I don't teach you to "be confident." I help you dismantle the 4 Layers of Fear™ that keep you silent: Fear of Judgment, Fear of Getting it Wrong, Fear of Being Too Much, Fear of Not Belonging.

This isn't about technique. It's about nervous system work, truth excavation, and giving yourself permission to take up space. My approach is grounded in empathy, authenticity, and a deep commitment to your growth and well-being.

When you shift your internal language—how you speak to yourself—you shift everything. Your presence. Your leadership. Your impact.

And here's what I know: when you live and speak your Truth, you allow others to do the same. This is how we change the world.

My Core Values

Freedom Through Choice

Life on your terms. Work that lights you up. The courage to choose yourself. Freedom means designing your life, creating financial independence, and building the impact and change you want to see in the world.

Vitality Over Hustle

Your body is part of your message. Energy, movement, and well-being aren't luxuries—they're essential to showing up powerfully in your life and work.

Truth Over Comfort

I believe in speaking and living what's real, even when it's uncomfortable, even when people don't agree. Truth is the foundation of everything I do—for myself and for the women I work with.

Empathy Over Ego

How we communicate matters. Deep listening, compassionate language, and meeting people where they are—not where we think they should be. This is how we create real change.

Connection Over Isolation

Real relationships, vulnerable conversations, community that holds you as you grow, and showing up for the people who matter most. We're not meant to do this alone—not in business, not in family, not in life..

Play Over Perfection

Life's too short to take ourselves too seriously. I bring adventure, exploration, laughter, and lightness to the deep work. Transformation happens best when we're having fun—whether that's creating retreats in Bali or making up songs from a single word.

Living & Speaking Your Truth is Your Pathway to Liberation.

1.

From Doubt to Confident

You second-guess yourself before you speak. You wonder if what you have to say matters. I help you dismantle the 4 Layers of Fear™ (Fear of Judgment, Fear of Getting it Wrong, Fear of Being Too Much, Fear of Not Belonging) so you can trust your voice and speak with unshakeable presence, not by performing confidence, but by unlocking the truth of who you already are.

2.

From Stuck to Clarity

You know you're meant for more, but you can't see the path forward. You're caught between who you've been and who you're becoming. I help you cut through the noise using The Confidence Codes™, Speak Your Story™, and the EMBRACE Method™ so you can identify your authentic message, craft stories that connect, and chart a clear path toward the impact you're here to create 

3.

From Invisible to Visible

You're brilliant, but no one sees it. You shrink in rooms where you should be leading. I help you build the authority, presence, and influence to own any stage—whether that's boardrooms, speaking engagements, or online platforms. Using The Message Map™, Influence to Income™, and The Legacy Effect™, I guide you through HERVOICE™, keynote speaking, and 1:1 mentorship to step fully into your visibility and get recognized (and paid) for your expertise.. 

When working with Michelle your transformation is grounded in nervous system-informed work, as a Masters in NLP , Advanced EFT Practitioner and Applied Psychology Strategic Coach combined with over 20 years experience in business and corporate leadership experience. I've helped hundreds of women move from performing to expressing—and nothing brings me more joy than seeing my clients reach new heights in their personal and professional lives.

Let's get started

"I originally reached out to Michelle to assist with 1:1 coaching speaking coaching to assist in overcoming any self-doubt and nerves. The work I did with Michelle has helped me reframe my thinking and she has provided with tools to work through any nerves. Michelle’s support was more than expected with her being available prior to a speaking event in any way I needed, which is what got me through it. I would definitely recommend working with Michelle, I know I will continue to."

"Working with Michelle was an empowering experience"

"Working with Michelle was a very empowering experience. Throughout the process I felt safe and supported, which allowed me to look more deeply into the factors preventing me from showing up and being confident in my business.
I was new to EFT Tapping, however I was pleasantly surprised at its effectiveness in helping to clear some mental blocks that were holding me back. Since my session, I’ve been able to use the techniques shared by Michelle to reinforce positive self talk which in turn is helping me to lean into my potential as a meaningful and authentic contributor in my field."

SOME EXTRA THINGS ABOUT ME

Sydney-based. Mother of three boys. Former corporate leader turned Truth Activator - Permission Giver Soul Preneur. TEDxUSYD speaker/trainer.

You'll find me with a long black in hand, probably by the water—that's where I decompress. I'm equal parts strategic synthesizer (I can pull the key pieces from mountains of information and make it make sense) and creative chaos (I'll make up songs and stories from a single word, and yes, I love interpretive dance).

I'm obsessed with travel and adventure—creating retreats and experiential events is where my heart truly lights up. There's something magical about bringing women together in beautiful spaces where transformation can unfold naturally.

When I'm not coaching, speaking, or planning the next retreat, I'm binge-watching Grey's Anatomy for the hundredth time, deep in all things metaphysical, running, or at Lift Club—my go-to ways to move energy and stay grounded.

I'm cheeky, nurturing, and relentlessly committed to helping women stop shrinking. I believe every woman has the potential to achieve greatness with the right mindset and tools—and every woman has the right to live and speak her Truth.

I do this work because I love it. Because it's my Truth. And because when we empower women to succeed, we're not just helping one person—we're building a better future for families, communities, and the world.
