Practical Support, Advocacy and Coaching for Overwhelmed Neurodiverse Individuals and Business Owners
Welcome
Hi, I’m Michelle
I’m here for those of us navigating the in-between—where the systems don’t fit, the support isn’t there, and we’re ready to build something better.
I bridge the gaps the system never prepared us for—between diagnosis and support, visibility and belonging, survival and thriving.
I help you find your footing between those worlds — so you can rebuild a life or business that feels sustainable, supportive, and truly yours.
There’s no pressure to perform around me — just space to breathe, reflect, and begin again.
Every person and business works differently, and I adapt to how each client and learner thinks and operates.
I bring order to chaos, simplify what’s complex, and create more ease and flow across life and work.
Whether you’re untangling overwhelm, rebuilding systems, or reconnecting with yourself, we’ll find a calmer, clearer way forward — together.
You don’t need to have it all together.
You just need a moment to land.
Together, we rebuild slowly, gently, and in ways that truly fit who you are becoming
However overwhelm shows up — emotional, digital, or existential — we’ll meet it together.
Each path offers a different way to untangle the noise and return to yourself, step by step.
Work with Me
Sorted and Supported
For when you know things need sorting but don’t know where to start
I quietly sort out the behind-the-scenes chaos — tidying messy processes, simplifying tools, and fixing what’s slowing everyone down.
When the structure works, people do too.
Advocacy
For when communication or inclusion has broken down
I help bridge the gaps between people, teams, and systems so everyone feels heard and understood.
That might mean translating between departments, making sure neurodivergent voices are included, or creating calmer ways to work together.
Coaching & Mentoring
For when you feel stuck, unseen, or overwhelmed
I help people rebuild confidence, focus, and self-trust — especially after burnout, big change, or too much masking.
It’s about finding your rhythm again and learning how to ask for what you need without apology.
