Broken promises suck. And I’m not just talking about the empty promises made to us by others, I mean the ones we make to ourselves. In fact they’re the worst kind. If there’s one thing that will destroy your self-esteem faster than the speed of light, it’s breaking promises to yourself. See, self-esteem is born…
Adios 2017. I can’t say that I’ll miss you, as you turned out to be one of the most challenging of my 50 years on the planet so far. You brought me the lowest of lows, but also some profound insights and growth. I know I’m not alone, as so many people have been feeling…
Have you ever been through a time in your life where – either by choice or by unforeseen circumstance – you found yourself in the position of starting over? Maybe you unexpectedly lost a job or a relationship, or you reached an inevitable rite of passage, or perhaps after a long road of trying to…
Wow, is summer flying by or what? So far I’ve been doing pretty well with my self-improvement fast, although I can’t help tuning into inspirational content and teachers every once in a while because 1.) it really feeds me, and 2.) it inspires me to serve YOU! Did you decide to take on my challenge…
Thank you SO much for the warm welcome back to writing a couple of weeks ago! I’m overwhelmed by the supportive comments and messages of gratitude I received for my long-overdue post about why I’ve been out of touch the past 10 months. If you missed it you can get the scoop here Let’s just…

To refresh your memory, you’re probably receiving this email…
If you struggle with food, you’ve probably asked yourself “what’s wrong with me,” on at least a few occasions. It’s a funny thing we humans do when have any kind of unwanted habit or state that we haven’t been able to overcome. I mean, what other explanation is there? A “normal” person would be able…
Last week I shared with you how I’ve been on a bit of a forced time-out recovering from unexpected surgery, and I’m so overwhelmed by all your kind words and messages of support and healing – thank you! Here’s one of the wonderful things that happens when you take time to rest and reflect… space…
It’s been a while since I’ve sent you a new note or video, mainly because I’ve been down for the count. In fact, I’ve been on the receiving end of what I often refer to as the “forced time-out.” It’s something I’ve coached numerous clients through, but I never thought it would happen to me.…
So last weekend, I ate a lot. And not just a lot in general, but a lot of rich, decadent things like Armenian Su Boureg (a layered noodle, cheese and butter dish) and homemade meyer lemon pie! It was fabulous, until I noticed a sneaky old voice in my head that whispered, “Oh boy, Michelle,…
