You deserve to recover from what you’ve survived.

Hey, hey there! My name is Michelle and I created this space to fill a space in the wellness world for busy, exhausted people who have experienced difficulty on their journey to recovering from burnout, compassion fatigue and capitalism fatigue.

Why? Because I was one of those people.

As a social worker, a first-time mom and a recovering perfectionist, stress, pressure and overworking are things I am all too familiar with. Self-care wasn’t always something I leaned on β€” I’ve had many moments of putting my needs last in service of others.

Here at Gmichelle Wellness, my mission is to compassionately encourage you to prioritize your recovery journey and offer practical, realistic self-care opportunities to help you show up as your favorite version of yourself.

I am here to help guide you through and to a life that feels more easeful, less stressful and most importantly, free from burnout-causing habits. With my journaling resources and signature recovery services, you are just a click away from living the more balanced life you deserve to live.
