“Life is about recalibrating. About continually asking yourself: What do I have to do to get where I need to be? How do I create the life I want?”
– Oprah winfrey
Choosing your path
My Journey
A Life’s Journey 2.0
1st Act
My journey began with my first career after I earned a bachelor’s degree in fashion design and merchandising from Clark Atlanta University. After working in the field, designing for a fashion house, creating my own line, and styling recording artists, I found the theater. I loved working with people and helping them to inhabit a character and craft the vision of the persona they wanted to project. Working with actors and developing period-accurate costumes sparked an interest in historical textiles. I returned to school at the University of Georgia and earned a graduate degree in consumer science with a focus on historic costume and textiles.
2nd Act
3rd Act
We expanded our family with two boys in addition to my lovely stepdaughter. Life with kids and becoming a caregiver redefined me and I found myself returning to school for a master’s in psychology with a focus on self-image and employment. I began my third career as a career coach in a hospital setting working with clients that had physical or health barriers to gaining and sustaining employment. I was able to blend my past experience with developing self-image with my advanced studies in psychology to be of service to an underserved community.
The Next Chapter
We all have a journey. No two are the same. I hope you come along on this tailored self-care (t.s.c) journey with me, join the community, and take advantage of the coaching services.
All my best,
Michelle
