About Michelle

My Journey Changed How I Think About Health.

 

My journey changed how I think about health and leadership. 

Running a corporation gave me firsthand experience with the demands of leadership and the responsibility of supporting a team. Surviving a spinal cord stroke brought a deeply personal perspective to what it means to care for our health.

Together, those experiences shape my approach to wellness. I understand that people bring their whole lives to work and that well-being deserves attention both within and beyond the workplace.

Today, I bring that perspective to corporate wellness and individual support, helping organizations care for their people and helping individuals make room for their own health.

For me, wellness is personal. It’s also part of how we lead, work, and care for one another.

My Story

The Story Behind the MTG Method™.

For years, I believed health was tied to the number on the scale or the size of my clothes. I spent years chasing skinny, believing that looking a certain way meant I was healthy.

At the same time, I was running a corporation and carrying the responsibilities that came with leadership. I understood the demands of keeping a business moving and supporting the people who depended on me.

Then menopause arrived, and my body began to feel unfamiliar. Weight gain, heart palpitations, anxiety, poor sleep, and hair loss left me searching for answers. I assumed much of what I was experiencing was simply part of menopause and something I had to live with.

After decades of experience helping others improve their health, I survived a spinal cord stroke in 2025. It deepened my understanding of resilience, recovery, and the everyday challenges of caring for your health, adding a new personal perspective to the work I had already been doing for years. 

That experience reinforced the importance of looking at the bigger picture and understanding how menopause, stress, blood sugar, sleep, mindset, and daily habits influence our well-being. It strengthened my commitment to helping people understand those connections instead of focusing only on weight or individual symptoms. 

The MTG Method™ brings together my decades of experience, professional education, and personal insights through three connected areas: Mindset, Triggers, and Glucose.

Today, I bring both my personal experience and my leadership perspective to individual and corporate wellness. My work helps people move beyond guesswork, recognize patterns, and build practical habits that support their health. It also helps organizations understand and support the people behind the work.

Because health is personal. The breakthrough comes when you stop chasing symptoms and start connecting the dots.

I didn't want feeling poorly to become my normal. I wanted to understand what my body needed.

 

That search became the foundation of the MTG Method™. Today, it guides my individual and corporate wellness work. My mission is helping people connect the dots between their daily habits and how they feel.

 
 
The Turning Point
Small shifts started creating real change.
 
What Changed

I stopped looking at symptoms separately and started connecting the dots.

I began looking beyond the next diet or quick fix and started paying attention to my everyday patterns. I took a closer look at what I ate, how I slept, how I managed stress, and how those habits influenced how I felt.

Understanding those connections helped me stop judging my body and focus on practical ways to support my health.

My experience as both a corporate leader and someone navigating health challenges shaped what came next. Wellness support needs to account for real lives and the demands people carry, the environments they work in, and the habits they can realistically sustain. 

That’s the heart of the MTG Method™: helping people understand their patterns and turn that awareness into meaningful action.

Why I Do This Work

Experience meets expertise

The MTG Method™ brings together professional education, personal health experience, and the perspective I gained from running a corporation. I bring that understanding to individuals and organizations through practical, science-informed strategies that fit the realities of everyday life.

 
01
 

Nutrition + Behaviour Change

Lasting change starts with habits you can sustain. I combine nutrition education with behaviour change coaching to help you understand your patterns and take practical steps that support your health without extreme diets or the pressure to be perfect.

Individual & corporate wellness Support

People’s health needs don’t disappear when they arrive at work. From menopause and stress to nutrition and daily habits, I help individuals better understand their well-being and organizations better support their people.

 
03
 

Always Learning

My experience shapes my perspective. Continued learning strengthens my practice. I invest in education, certifications, and mentorship to deepen my knowledge and bring thoughtful, informed guidance to the people and organizations I support.

 
 
Beyond the Coaching

feeling well is about having more life to enjoy.

For me, health is about having the energy and freedom to do what matters to you, including spending time with people you love, pursuing meaningful work, and enjoying the everyday moments that make life yours.

Since my stroke, some activities look different. I hike a little less, but my love of being outdoors hasn’t changed. Time with family, paddle boarding, kayaking, a great concert, and date nights with my fabulous husband are still things I treasure.

So are the quieter moments: a good book, a glass of wine, or a beautiful sunset. My family and faith keep me grounded, and those moments remind me why I care so deeply about this work.

Whether I’m supporting an individual or working with an organization, the purpose is the same: helping people feel well enough to participate more fully in the lives they want to live.

Because better health isn't just about feeling better. It's about living better.
