Motivational. Inspiring. And a student of this work myself.

I am Michelle, aka Momchelle, aka Jimmy Sprinkles, aka Pasty, aka Cutie.

I have many names; I wear many hats. I am a highly complex individual who is very picky and likes things the way I like them. I love people. They are my passion. I love helping people, talking to people, being close to people. My people are my whole world.

I love that God made me an extravert. I love that you are reading this.

First and foremost, I am a mother. That is how I identify myself. I am working on evolving that - but it’s a primary identifier for sure. I will always love being a mother but I am growing and learning how to be my most authentic self beyond that title too. I also hate that expression,” my most authentic self”. However, until I figure out another way of saying it, I’m stuck with it. I am a total extrovert. I love people. I’ve told you that already. I love taking in wounded souls. I think it is one of my gifts from God. People are interesting and I truly believe that everyone who comes into your life, does so to teach you a lesson you were meant to learn. I hope I learn a lot of lessons before a die. Lessons make me grow, and I’ve sat stagnate way to long.

I am divorced, I already mentioned that, but I feel the need to mention it again. It was a big part of the search to find, say it with me, “my most authentic self”. I remember the girl I used to be. The one who didn’t care what others thought about her. The one who bought hand painted jeans and wore different earrings in every hole in her ears (there were 5 holes in total). I miss that girl. Somewhere between her and marriage, I lost my way. I became basic, vanilla, boring. One day I looked in the mirror, and I realized there wasn’t anything left of her at all. That is when I took my life back into my own hands and started to change. It was painful, exciting, wonderful, and frustrating at times. But I made it, and I now recognize traces of that young free-spirited girl that I used to be. If you can relate to anything that I’ve written, you have come to the right place. Try the 730, have the courage to choose you. If you read this, and don’t get me, no hard feelings, I am not for everyone. However please reach out via email, if you have any question, comments, or good stories you’d like to share. It was a pleasure meeting you.
