Meet Michelle

CRESCENDO LIFE COACH

I have two real passions: serving others and constant improvement. I'm never satisfied with "good enough," and you are probably the same. Sometimes I can take that feeling too far, letting my inner perfectionist control me out of fear. But I know I'm meant to be a coach because I am in love with helping my clients become their best and overcome perfectionism. I tend to be an overachiever, which gets exhausting. So instead, I strive to become (and help my clients become) a high achiever who can do great things over the long term.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the demands you put on yourself, I aim to introduce clarity and action. Life's too short to procrastinate, feel unsure of yourself, or stay trapped in mind jail. Since there are many periods of growth throughout life, I facilitate your self-growth and empowerment during this time so you can grow confidently and with purpose.

I'm here to help you achieve a more sustainable success in life, and provide you with the tools necessary to get you to the future you desire. I have been successfully coaching friends and clients throughout the Boise area for 8 years. Let me help you learn and develop better ways to achieve your big goals.

When I'm not helping clients overcome their barriers, you can find me enjoying a Boise Philharmonic or Serenata Orchestra concert, hiking the Boise foothills, listening to a podcast or audiobook, or volunteering with the Junior League of Boise. These outlets are key components to my personal holistic success.
