In this deeply personal birthday episode, Michelle pulls back the curtain on her journey from climbing ladders to creating legacy. She opens up about her high-achieving 20s, the drive to succeed, and the secret ache that degrees and promotions couldn’t quiet.
From getting into the top engineering schools in the country to crying alone in the shower, Michelle shares the pivotal moment that changed everything—and the bold decision to pursue what she really wanted: love, marriage, and a family of her own.
And don’t get it twisted—she didn’t give up her ambition. She just redirected it. Today, she runs a thriving coaching business helping other smart, faith-filled women find godly love too.
If you’ve ever felt like you were doing all the “right” things and still felt something missing, this episode is your permission slip to want more.
Because you don’t have to settle for performance when what you really want is partnership.
