Two years had passed, and I found myself running in place only to go nowhere. This is when I realized the benefit of a life coach; I needed guidance. After yet another dead end job application, I reached out to Michelle. During my work with Michelle I had an opportunity to meditate with her, which I had never done before, and didnʼt quite know what to expect, but she gently guided me about certain affirmations and positions to facilitate the process. I was amazed at how I was able to calm my ADHD mind and actually become aware of a deeper, wiser, more innate core, while gaining a hypersensitivity to the world around me. As a skeptic, I am still surprised that I had such a surprisingly profound experience. …After going over some of my hopes and fears, Michelle helped illuminate to me a spectrum of energy that we all find ourselves in–either we are aglow at the top with success or wallowing at the bottom in self-perceived failure. The key is to take our failures and burn them up as fuel to keep on going. By recognizing my own pattern of self-defeat, I could also realize that there is a way out; it is possible to feel good and maybe even find success again. Sometimes our fears hold us back, and by naming them and calling them as such, they lose their power and hold. I already knew in the back of my mind a lot of the things she said, but Iʼve never been willing to recognize them until Michelle guided me to find myself in such an open-ended manner. At the end of the session, we took a pragmatic approach to fulfilling some more immediate goals. Baby steps. Michelle helped me identify some of my options, while keeping my expectations realistic and manageable. She also gently nudged me into adopting a self-proscribed timeline for fulfilling these goals.

I have become more open with friends and co-workers and much less afraid to talk to people I don’t know. I don’t worry what others think of me any longer and I make eye contact when I am talking to people, which I didn’t do 6 months ago.

I was engaged in Life Coaching with Michelle Lefebvre during a period that coincided with one of the most difficult periods of my life, involving both business and personal issues. At the beginning of my sessions, it was difficult for me to see many positives in any area of my life. Losing a business, commuting long distances for employment, and the associated impacts on my family seemed overwhelming. Michelle’s coaching led me to understand how bringing positive energy into my decisions could impact the direction I would take. With her assistance, I have been able to address difficult decisions head-on, look for the best possible outcomes, and act on them. I am now firmly convinced that the energy I bring to any life situation will have a significant impact on the outcome. I have seen it happen. Michelle has an internal strength of character, coupled with an intuitive feel for where people are in their lives, and knows how to bring out the best in them. As life situations interject their way into your life, she is able to use them as learning opportunities. She does so gently and with great skill. I strongly recommend Michelle. She is a skilled coach who lives her beliefs, and brings others along.
