Welcome
Hey there! I’m Michelle, a writer and podcaster who left the tech world in search of a more meaningful life. My journey started with leaving behind a life I created around what I thought I was supposed to do and now I’m exploring what a life aligned with my values really looks like.
This includes moving out of software sales into creative entrepreneurship, taking a never ending sabbatical, fighting the addictive powers of social media and living intentionally in a way that aligns with my values. Come join this community if those sound like things you’re thinking about as well!
I also like to throw in some funny personal stories including my search to find the future Mr. Varghese.

Personal Writing Coach
If you write on Substack and are interested in growing more confident as a writer, keep reading. I strongly believe that writing online is a lighthouse of luck in that you can attract interesting people and opportunities to you by sharing your ideas online. I’ve received job opportunities, invites to podcasts, free event invites and more through people who’ve read my writing. More importantly, I’ve been able to build a beautiful community online. My passion is helping others do this as well. I work with people who’ve been writing online and are feeling stuck. Usually, there’s some combination of wanting to improve their craft and find more readers. I do developmental and in line editing to help with the craft piece. Together, we put together a growth strategy that feels genuine and sustainable. You can learn more and even set up a free call with me by clicking the button below.
Build A Wealthy Spirit Podcast
My sister, Sammie, and I released an episode of the Build A Wealthy Spirit podcast for four years. I’m so proud of the impact it had on our listeners who shared their stories of improving their personal finances and making choices to create a life that aligned with their values. The podcast incidentally catalogued major changes in my life. From losing my job, living with my parents for a year, moving to a small remote desert town to my move to the East Coast. Our personal stories are a time capsule of our experiences. However, what we share about personal finance, self development, sabbaticals and spirituality are timeless.
