From rock bottom to radical reinvention.
Michelle Thompson is a certified life coach, founder of Michelle Thompson Coaching, and author of Courageously You: Seven Simple Frameworks to Create the Life You Love. In her debut book, Michelle draws on her own remarkable journey, from rock bottom to radical reinvention, to offer women a compassionate, practical roadmap for transforming their lives through seven powerful frameworks.
With over 17 years of experience helping and mentoring women through life's most pivotal transitions, Michelle brings a uniquely holistic approach that blends her analytical project management background with deeply personal, transformational coaching. Her work is rooted in truth-telling, courageous action, and the belief that it is never too late to become who you were meant to be.
Before founding her coaching practice, Michelle spent over two decades in corporate leadership, including managing a $67M global HR platform implementation and serving as Chair of the Heritage Business Resource Group, where she earned the "Allyship in Action" award. She is a certified Prosci® Change Management practitioner. Her expertise in change management, transformational leadership, and executive presence now serves her greatest mission: helping women break down big goals into manageable steps and achieve life-changing outcomes.
Michelle holds an MBA from Wake Forest University School of Business and is a Project Management Professional (PMP®) and Certified Life Coach (CLC). She also hosts Her Comeback: Transforming Your Life After 50, a podcast featuring empowered women who have leaned into their created future and inspire others to become the best version of themselves, regardless of age, circumstances, or background.
