You are invited to Say Yes to Desire - a nourishing space where honoring your desires is the new business plan.

Listen to Your Intuition

Prioritize & Nourish Your Well-Being

Honor Your Zone of Genius

Hi, I’m Michelle!

Say Yes to Desire is home to my deepest teachings on what it means to let your business grow as the beautiful byproduct of honoring YOURSELF.

I started my business in 2012 and I always made “enough money” by working really hard, but I felt like I was sort of cut off from the abundance that I knew was available and I knew that the answer was not going to come from working harder - or even from working smarter. I needed deeper answers - not new strategies or tactics.

It took me 8 years to learn what exactly was broken with the approach taught to so many of us in personal development and entrepreneurship. The year was 2020 when I finally stumbled into a teaching that gave me permission to start putting myself first like it was my new job description. And that changed everything. 

I believe that, as women especially, we have a deep fear of putting ourselves first - of saying yes to desire. This fear shows up differently for all of us. For me, I felt that I had to make sure everyone else was okay before I could be ok - before I could start saying yes to myself. This kept me taking ownership of other people's problems instead of taking 100% responsibility for my own life.

However, contrary to what we've been told, this fear isn't something to overcome or push through or “get over”. It's not about the fear in itself. It's about our inner child needing to know that we SEE her. We hear her. And it's safe for her needs and desires to finally be addressed and fulfilled.

I took this knowledge and I turned my business into a container for practicing THE work and things exploded - in a good way. 

Everything changed when I stopped making my business about other people's needs and other people's problems and I started making it a safe place for me to heal and express myself. A safe space for my inner child to play and run around like wild.

A safe space to free myself from negative patterns.

A safe space to do whatever I want.

A safe space to say yes to desire.

Some Desires I’ve Said Yes to…

  • 👋 leaving Facebook and Instagram in 2021.

  • 💸 making only the kind of courses that light ME up - and making over a million dollars in revenue in the process since 2020.

  • 🇵🇹 moving from Miami to Portugal with my husband and two boys.

  • 👩🏾‍🎨 refusing to “niche down”. I make and do whatever I want and trust that I’ll attract my true community to the fullest expression of me.

The journey back to YOU awaits…

What You’ll Learn:

At the heart of all my classes is my “Personal Growth First, Business Second” approach. For so long we’ve heard the narrative of “build a successful business so that you can have a life you love.” I believe that this approach disempowers us. Instead, let’s step into our power to say yes to desire now, enjoy our lives now, address our own problems now - and let our business grow and evolve as the byproduct. No more waiting for your business to be the solution. The solution is YOU.

 

Say Yes to Desire

In this class, you’ll discover how a spontaneous trip to London turned into a wealth of lessons on the power of saying yes to desire. We've been conditioned to think that our desires are a "reward" we get at the end of a long road of self-denial and putting ourselves last. It's time to flip that script - and discover just how powerful you are when you do! 

Intuitive Email Marketing

A few years ago when my first son was born, I made a radical decision to delete 10,000 people from my email list. I no longer felt aligned with the well-known strategy of growing my list by trading freebies for subscribers and I wanted to start fresh - with people who genuinely wanted to hear from me. That decision led to a MUCH more profitable business - all with a smaller email list! Get all the details on how to combine the power of intuition and email marketing in this class.

Open the Door to Affiliate Income

A few years ago, I had a mindset shift about affiliate marketing. I suddenly realized that it could be so much more than just a way to make a few dollars here and there. Today, I make an additional full-time income stream just from recommending other people's products and software. In this class, I share the behind the scenes of it all. 

Piece of Cake Podcast

There was a time when I would never have thought I'd be hosting my own podcast. Today, it's the most natural thing in the world - and every episode gets hundreds to thousands of downloads with very little marketing from me. In this class, I share how to do podcasting the EASY way - even if you think you have "nothing to say."

Easy Peasy Email: Personal Inbox Edition

We all deserve email inbox peace. In this class, I walk you through my 8 steps to cutting the clutter and the overwhelm of your personal inbox. We'll identify the root of the problem and cover extremely practical tips to help you create boundaries and peace in your new email management system.

Create Quick & Easy Videos in Canva

Did you know that you can create beautifully (and easily) edited videos in Canva? In this class, I walk you through exactly how I create my YouTube videos in Canva. And if you believe that making videos and posting them on YouTube is something you can’t imagine doing, then get ready to take a closer look at that with me. I used to be afraid of video too, but it turned out to be a powerful path to inner healing, attracting true fans, and making more money.

The Magic & Meaning of Going 10x

Your business is a reflection of YOU. So to 10x your business, don't focus on your business! As counter-intuitive as it sounds, you need to turn your attention back to YOU if you want to grow your business. In this class, we get honest with ourselves about where we sense the most self-neglect in our life so that you can do the inner and outer work to 10x that particular area.

When you honor your desires, you light up a path for us all to honor our desires.

 

What You Get

Live Group “Tea Party” Calls

  • These calls are currently hosted on a platform called Butter. It’s similar to Zoom but 10 times more fun for everyone to use (in my opinion). Plus, there are no AI privacy issues with Butter.

  • Here is the schedule for our next round of live calls:

    March 23, 2024 | 1pm EST

    April 23, 2024 | 1pm EST

    May 23, 2024 | 1pm EST

    June 23, 2024 | 1pm EST

    July 23, 2024 | 1pm EST

    August 23, 2024 | 1pm EST

  • We affectionately refer to these calls as “Tea Parties” because each call is a magical, intimate gathering of friends. We talk life and business with plenty of space for questions and coaching.

  • Yes, the replay will be posted in the hub. However, after 6-12 months, the replays will be archived. This is to respect the fact that people often share vulnerably on these calls.

    Even though past coaching calls can feel really valuable, it represents old energy and old identities, and it's more important (and respectful to those who shared vulnerably) to archive the past after a while and move forward into new energy.

New: Notion template for checking in with your higher self

  • This is a template that you can add to your own Notion account (Notion is free). It allows you to check in with every area of your life and business so that you can banish self-neglect before it has the chance to grow. It’s also a great way to give yourself a high five for what’s going well.

The 30 Day Abundance Adventure

  • The Abundance Adventure is an immersive 30 day journey that is based on how I personally help my brain detox from scarcity thinking and open the door to the next level of wealth. 

    I've learned that abundance breakthroughs are always on the other side of using challenging experiences to our own advantage. Life never stops being challenging - we just have to get better at turning lemons into lemonade. I can't wait to go through this upcoming refreshing money mindset adventure with you.

  • ✅ A 30 Day Journal in 3 formats: Printable | Notion | Digital for Tablets (such as an iPad and Apple pencil).

    ✅ A hub with daily content consisting of personally recommended videos from Youtube as well as actionable tips from Michelle to help you open the door to money.

You’re willing to do the inner work of letting go of the baggage that doesn’t serve you instead of simply adding more tactics and strategies to your plate. You don’t allow your business to distract you from your personal growth.

You’re open to reclaiming your power to put yourself first - even if that leads to uncomfortable shifts in how your business is structured so that you can grow from a place of powerful self-alignment.

Please Read:

Say Yes to Desire is not a recurring-fee membership or a stand-alone course. It’s a program for which you pay a one-time cost to get access to whatever I desire to create for the program.

By running the program in this way, I am able to create and share whatever is lighting me up the most in the current season of my life and business.

There may be a time (in the distant future) when this program either retires or evolves into something else entirely (you’ll still maintain access at no extra cost). At the end of the day, I’m always going to honor desire rather than shrinking myself to fit an old identity - just as I teach you to do inside this program.

If you’re in favor of change, evolution, and growth, then you’re also in favor of allowing the future to be bigger than the past. Allowing for things to get better and better - instead of just bogged down with “more and more”. If that sounds like you, then join us. It’s time to do your business your way.

“I've been on this journey for just self fulfillment and looking for "how" to do it for some time now. And then I found Michelle... and I've been on the customer journey with her ever since. I stumbled across Say Yes to Desire... I LOVE IT! I am letting go of so many feelings and items that no longer serve me and that includes items in my business. I am feeling more at peace and journaling more as a result and now I can't wait to see how my life transforms one day at a time.”

Sophia Morgan

“I absolutely love all Michelle's courses and products, and I was so excited when Say Yes to Desire was released. Every course is like being invited into a little world of like-minded women who support each other and have incredible knowledge and ideas about business and life.  Say Yes to Desire really showed me that I don't have to work so hard at my business - but to focus on me and my zone of genius to create the best business that will be far more successful in the long run.  Say Yes to Desire allowed me to really think about what I want my business to be, and to get rid of the parts of my business that don't serve me at all.  I try to do a thousand different things in my business, when really I should just focus on a few things - and do those few things incredibly well and automate and set up systems. Say Yes to Desire is informative, inspirational, and life changing, as well as beautiful and a treat to go through.”
