About the author

Her mission is to help those she works with reconnect with their personal power to create the outward changes they seek from within.
Since her breast cancer diagnosis in 2004, Michelle has been "walking the talk" by consciously aligning who she is with what she does. With her alarm set for 4:10 a.m. most days, Michelle practices her unorthodox method of meditation, disguised in her early morning workouts, and poetry writing, with the intention of self-discovery, for a least an hour a day.
Her personal story of adopting her daughter from Guatemala was highlighted in Jack Canfield's book, Living the Success Principles. Michelle's personal and professional experiences, combined with her natural intuitiveness, provide a uniquely contemporary and relevant perspective throughout her writings on subjects about who we really are that have been explored for centuries.
Speaking loud, fast, and often, no one's more pleasantly surprised than Michelle that her unvarnished musings are organically chronicled in poetic verse. As a writer of fewer words, her natural writing style matches her personal mantra, "Keep it simple. Keep it real." Truth asks for only that.
