About me

My first memorable experience with the paranormal was at age five. I was playing outside in the snow with my little brother one winter day. My mother called my brother inside, and I remained outside doing what any typical five year old would do, making snowballs in the snow.

As I was about to eat one of those snowballs, I heard an adult female voice tell me everything was going to be okay. The voice sounded as though it were right beside me, except I was completely alone outside. Not fully understanding what had happened, I bit into the snowball and immediately saw blood. Rather than panicking, I remembered hearing that I would be okay and calmly went inside to find my mother.

Accepting that message and recognizing that it was meant to help me at such a young age opened me to messages like it throughout my life. I have not always understood the message or its true intent at the time it happened. Sometimes the meaning has only become clear in hindsight.

My relationship with tarot began nearly 30 years ago. For many years, my practice ebbed and flowed as my life changed. That shifted significantly in 2020, when I went through a period of surrender and spiritual ascension that changed the way I understood my intuition, my connection to Spirit, and the role these practices would have in my life.

Tarot became an important part of that journey and eventually became something I was called to teach and share with others. Through Tarot with Michelle, I use tarot and astrology as tools for insight, self awareness, and understanding the energies and possibilities available to us. My goal has never been to tell people how to live their lives, but to help them better understand themselves so they can make choices that feel right for them.

As I have continued along my own path, two things have become increasingly clear. I have a natural connection to healing energy, and teaching comes naturally to me. I genuinely want people to embrace all of who they are and feel good about the life they are creating.

That understanding eventually led me deeper into energy healing and spiritual practice. I became certified in Reiki I and Reiki II in 2025 and continued my training through shamanic practice, completing my shamanic practitioner certification in September 2026.

Shamanic practice has given me another way to explore many of the things that have been present throughout my life: intuition, energy, connection with nature, altered states of awareness, healing, and our ability to find wisdom within ourselves. Through Shamanic Healing with Michelle, I share guided journeys, meditation, drumming, sound, and other practices designed to help you slow down, go within, and reconnect with yourself.

While tarot, astrology, Reiki, and shamanic practice may look like different paths, for me they are connected by the same purpose: helping people understand themselves more deeply, trust their own inner wisdom, and consciously create a life that feels authentic to them.
