The Becoming

a personalized 1:1 coaching Experience

The Becoming is a 1:1 coaching experience for women ready to slow down, turn inward, and find their way forward at the pace of their own becoming.

If you are navigating a career transition, this work goes deeper than finding the next right job title. We slow down together and ask the bigger questions: who are you becoming, what matters most, and what do you want in this season of life?

Through compassionate coaching, presence, and deep curiosity, we follow your inner compass. What emerges is not only greater clarity, but a fuller, truer sense of yourself and the confidence to move forward with intention.

I started working with Michelle to find my next career move after a year in a job that wasn't a great fit. Shortly after we met, I was let go and faced uncertainty and self-doubt. I needed more support than I realized to process this change, decide my next steps, and integrate work with starting a family.

Through Michelle's coaching, I learned to truly listen to myself, take my needs seriously, and find peace and progress during a break between jobs. Ultimately, a much better-fitting job came at the right time, thanks to knowing myself better and being intentional about my next steps.

What to Expect

Our work together unfolds over several months, a consistent, collaborative space for you to slow down, listen inward, and tend to what is emerging.

Our Foundation

First, you will receive a thoughtful pre-session package to help focus our journey. We then meet for a two-part discovery session to begin our work together and deepen our connection.

Coaching Sessions

We meet virtually for 45 minutes weekly. Each session is a dedicated space to slow down, go inward, and tend to what needs attention. We celebrate what is shifting, honor what is hard, and close with a clear intention for the week ahead.

Between Sessions

The support doesn't end when our call does. Reach out by text, voice memo, or email whenever you need reflection or want to share what is unfolding.

Let’s Begin

The first step is simply a conversation. I offer a free consultation, an unhurried space to explore where you are and whether we are the right fit for this journey together.
