meet Michelle
In demand as an inspirational speaker, author, podcast host and spiritual mentor- this award-winning opera singer, entrepreneur, community builder, and recording artist is wanting to connect you with your loved ones.
Covid 19 was a reality check for so many of us. A time to reflect, to get to know ourselves again and to gain new perspective. In the midst of all this change, I also experienced a personal trauma through the loss of my stillborn son Chase. With his passing came my awakening. Shortly after he passed, I received many spirit visitors in the night and soon discovered my gift to connect with those who have crossed over. Now, 3 years later I have done thousands of readings to connect people to their loved ones, themselves and to validate that there is life after life.
This gift has made me truly witness that we are divinely loved and that we are never alone. I’d love to share this with you.
Let’s connect!
With love and gratitude,
Michelle
