Vegan Life
Michelle was inspired by a book that Oprah had recommended about veganism. On a plane from the east coast to LA, she read the book veraciously, start to finish, and was convinced that she should take it up – right there and then! She became a vegan instantly and was a practicing vegan for 14 years. Growing up with asthma and being on medications, she was sure of the health benefits of being vegan when her asthma disappeared and she no longer needed medication. She learned to cook vegan by experimenting and researching – her love of food was present every day. She published a cookbook and ran a meal/food prep business called Ohhlicious. She was named PETA’s It Girl in 2017.
Coaching Life
Michelle was a lifestyle and wellness coach while a vegan and vegan chef. She helped hundreds of people lose a significant amount of weight and transform their lives. She found that her clients where having incremental successes and she saw where transformation was not sustaining. The mindset piece was the missing link to sustaining good health and wellness. Where the mind goes, the body will follow. She also knows that all results people where having are a direct refletion of what’s going on inside. Until the inside changes, the outside does not change; therefore, people remain stuck.
