We’re back with another episode recorded on location—this time at Creative Shell Studios with the incredible Michelle R. Michelle is a photographer, designer, creative strategist, mother of two, and a woman who has continually redefined her identity through life’s detours.

In this powerful conversation, we explore what it means to rediscover yourself while navigating motherhood, career transitions, cultural expectations, faith, and the chaos that shapes us. Michelle shares her upbringing across countries, the discipline and pressure she grew up with, the challenges of losing her job while pregnant, and the journey of rebuilding her creative business from the ground up.

We dive deep into identity, purpose, resilience, and the courage required to reinvent yourself—especially when life shifts unexpectedly. Michelle also reflects on how her daughters have influenced her growth and how moments of faith, community, and grace gave her strength along the way.

If you’re a mom, a creative, a woman in transition, or someone working to reconnect with who you are beneath all the roles you play—this episode will speak to you.
