The journey isn’t mine alone—it’s one I share with you.
What you’ll find here are stories, voices, and reflections.
“She made me feel so comfortable to be myself and even explore the parts that were harder to open up about but were so necessary to help me become “unstuck” and be able to move forward with my life. ”

Podcast Conversations
I was honored to be a guest on Wild Woman Healing, where I shared about my journey with Buddhism, traveling full time for 5 years, what it feels like to find something greater in life, and the juiciness of surrounding to life.
“I feel more empowered than ever before in my life—I am living and speaking my truth and showing up as my authentic self.“

Stories from my clients
The deepest gratitude I hold is for my clients—who let me witness their journeys and trusted me to walk alongside them.
Kae (she/they)
“In only the six weeks that I’ve been working with Mikaela, I took fundamental steps towards starting my small business—manifesting a long-held dream of mine to do energy work. I am now contracted to do workshops at my yoga studio and have the tools I need to expand my business outwards. I also found the strength and autonomy to leave a relationship that was not serving my highest good, stood up to family in areas where I had previously marginalized myself, and reframed my relationship with money and logistics, all of which also has led me to a place where I am able to buy a house, something which was previously not an option due to the limits I had been placing myself under.
I feel more empowered than ever before in my life—I am living and speaking my truth and showing up as my authentic self. I could not ask for a better coach than Mikaela—she really listens, and is able to put into words and reframe things I’ve known in the deepest parts of me but didn’t know how to articulate and move through.
Her life and spiritual coaching background means she’s able to guide me through setting both concrete, actionable goals, and help to heal and release the spiritual and energetic blocks keeping me from reaching them. I am recommending her to my dearest loved ones and to anyone and everyone who is ready to take the next step to becoming who they were meant to be. It is extraordinarily worth it.”
Kristjanna (She/her)
“I went through the six week discovery coaching process with Mikaela and we just finished our last session. As I’m writing this I’m filled with an overwhelming sense of gratitude for the time I got to spend and explore my life and its direction with her. She made me feel so comfortable to be myself and even explore the parts that were harder to open up about but were so necessary to help me become “unstuck” and be able to move forward with my life. After every session I felt revitalized and motivated, even on the days I came to my session feeling tired or drained. I’m really looking forward to utilizing the tools and practices I learned over those six weeks and being able to take my coaching further!”

“I started this journey with Mikaela, not fully knowing what coaching is, I have been in therapy sessions but never with a coach, let along a life coach. She is extremely understanding, compassionate, thoughtful and respectful, with an energetic bubbly personality. We journeyed through different aspects of my life, some that I didn’t even realize I needed to explore. One of the major differences that I had felt ( which might be anecdotal) coaching is more of an active process between both participants vs therapy which is more passive.
I have definitely enjoyed exploring those topics with her and will definitely continue and recommend her to my friends.”
Haley, (She/her)
“Experiencing the teachings of life coaching was something that I had never imagined for myself. Mikaela provided me with an incredible first impression on what this teaching can be. She is patient, empathetic and kind. Her expertise helped lead me to finding new habits, techniques and outlooks on achieving goals in my life that I was struggling to achieve in the first place. I found her classes to be a valuable source for staying accountable and for having a safe space to discuss what might be holding you back from achieving those goals. “
Erin (she/her)
“Mikaela was a true voice of reason and support. I started off with lofty targets and an ego that said the process should be easy. When I got bogged down and started to really doubt myself, Mikaela helped me with her arsenal of tips, tricks and tools to help me figure out my blockages, my whys and why nots and mirrored back to me the things that I didn’t even realize I was saying. She understands how to establish realistic objectives with smart plans of action and sits with you while you break down a mountain of tasks into manageable ideas. I really appreciated my meetings with her and by the end of our sessions, I did reach more of my goals then I thought I would after the breakdowns. Thank you so much Mikaela!”

Support outside of sessions
Coaching isn’t only about our sessions together—it’s also about the small reminders and breakthroughs in between.
