She is the cofounder of Soul Camp Creative, the Enchantment Experience, and The Connecticut Women’s Club, and has worked with thousands of visionaries, leaders, healers, and seekers to find their reason for being on this planet and translate it into movements, brands, businesses, books, and experiences that reach the masses.

Michelle’s first book, (NOT) Awakened: Stop Chasing Your Higher Self and Start Owning the Real You, dismantles the myth of the perfect spiritual awakening and invites readers to discover purpose in the places they’ve tried to hide. Known for her mix of edgy storytelling, soulful strategy, and ability to see the deeper message in the mess, Michelle creates platforms that spark belonging, liberation, and impact.
