“It took me 8 years to learn what exactly was broken with the approach taught to so many of us in personal development and entrepreneurship…”
Hi, I’m Michelle! I started my business in 2012 and I always made “enough money” by working really hard, but I felt like I was sort of cut off from the abundance that I knew was available and I knew that the answer was not going to come from working harder - or even from working smarter. I needed deeper answers - not new strategies or tactics.
It took me 8 years to learn what exactly was broken with the approach taught to so many of us in personal development and entrepreneurship. The year was 2020 when I finally stumbled into a teaching that gave me permission to start putting myself first like it was my new job description. And that changed everything.
I believe that, as women especially, we have a deep fear of putting ourselves first - of saying yes to desire. This fear shows up differently for all of us. For me, I felt that I had to make sure everyone else was okay before I could be ok - before I could start saying yes to myself. This kept me taking ownership of other people's issues instead of taking 100% responsibility for my own life.
However, contrary to what we've been told, this fear isn't something to overcome or push through or “get over”. It's not about the fear in itself. It's about our inner child needing to know that we SEE her. We hear her. And it's safe for her needs and desires to finally be addressed and fulfilled.
I took this knowledge and I turned my business into a container for practicing THE work and things exploded - in a good way.
Everything changed when I stopped making my business about other people's needs and other people's problems and I started making it a safe place for me to heal and express myself.
A safe space for my inner child to play and run around like wild.
A safe space to free myself from negative patterns and heal my nervous system.
A safe space to do and create whatever I want.
A safe space to say yes to desire.
What I believe…
Are you feeling called to let your business be a space for your healing and evolution?
