About me

Hi, I’m Michèle. I’m here to help you move from simply getting by to finding your own way forward

​

Life for me has been a series of bold pivots. I spent 11 years in Spain, following my gut through the worlds of tourism and hotel management. It was an adventure that taught me how to guide people long before I called myself a coach. But it was my own deeper challenges - navigating burnout in 2018 and recovering from cancer in 2025 - that truly reshaped my perspective. Those moments taught me that even the most difficult detours hold the potential for a massive internal shift.

​

This personal history is exactly what I bring to our sessions. When I discovered coaching in 2016, it felt like coming home because I’ve always been drawn to the big, gritty questions. I offer a warm, safe space to land, but I also know when to lean in. When I feel there’s a layer deeper to explore, I’ll invite you to face those tougher questions - always with a playful touch, ensuring you feel fully supported as we go there together.

​

Today, that mission extends beyond 1-on-1 coaching. Through my podcast Rumbo Norte, my newsletter, and my hiking retreats in Portugal, I help a global, multilingual community find their way through life. Whether we speak Dutch, French, English, or Spanish, my goal remains the same: to help you align your life with what truly fulfils you.

​

Coaching isn’t just what I do; it’s who I am.

 

If you’re done with "just fine" and ready to explore what’s truly possible, let’s talk.

I’d be honnored to guide you.
