Success Through Our Clients’ Eyes

Michelle brought the perfect balance of encouragement, insight, and practical, tangible support. She introduced me to new ways of thinking and helped me challenge my default thought patterns. She brought on-target resources to the table and made me feel truly heard and supported. I always left our sessions feeling more confident, clear-headed, and equipped to move forward.

Brooke Hatfield Senior Director, Healthcare Services

I had the privilege of working closely with Michelle as a teammate for 6 years. Michelle was proactive, pragmatic, and challenged assumptions at every turn. Bolstered by her influence and leadership, we were able to turn a $159M service line into a $600M Institute with world class quality and performance.

Rob Boesch Chief Nursing Officer

Michelle is my coach, partnering with me as I develop my business plan and strategy. She provides excellent coaching by listening, asking important questions, and making the space I needed to gain clarity, focus, and build my strategic plan. I thought I knew what direction I was headed, but through conversations with Michelle, I realized that I wanted something very different. It feels freeing and satisfying to unlock a better course of action that is far more fulfilling than what I thought I should be doing. Partnering with Michelle set me on a path to greater professional fulfillment.

Ashley Schaer Fractional COO

I want to heartily recommend Michelle to anyone who has the courage to name imposter syndrome as a barrier to being the most authentic and effective leader possible. Like so many others, I have also suffered at times in my life of self-doubt and believing I was inadequate and not enough. With the help of others, I was able to realize that my inner dialogue was just a story and I had enormous ability to change that story. I was also fortunate enough to have the privilege to work with Michelle and to be inspired by her own courageous journey to find her true voice and it is incredibly powerful. She’s a great coach, leader, and educator and I know she has and will positively impact many, many lives.

Michelle is a real as it gets. Her honest approach to helping leader defeat imposter syndrome comes from the personal battles she’s faced over her career in healthcare. Michelle is relentless in championing those who come up against this giant. She is someone you want on your team when you are aiming for the top!!

Jen Rowland Rowland Leadership Training and Consulting

For over twenty years it’s been my honor and pleasure to know and work with Michelle. Michelle’s true passion is the development of leaders, helping them to achieve outcomes as their very best selves. You will not find a more energized and energizing coach to challenge and mentor others in personal and professional growth!

Joan Deal

I worked with Michelle in a leadership collaboration. During our time together, I was impressed by her ability to incorporate self-awareness and insight into true leadership philosophy. I observed her love of “ growing her team “. She was always “ in the moment “ with them during meeting time and had an uncanny sense of “ reading them “. This is a true skill that leaders can leverage in relationship building: it’s a gift. Michelle was consistent and always focused on “ doing the right thing” while navigating organizational politics. A truly important quality that is overlooked at times is the ability to find joy in the journey and ensure there is fun in the work. Michelle by nature, exudes positivity and gratitude. The teams that she led gravitated to this and actually began to model this important piece of leadership. She is and was a pleasure to know and continues to be a work colleague.
