From Courtrooms to Coaching: When Spirit Nudges You Sideways

What happens when the successful career you've built no longer aligns with your soul's calling?  Michele Lee's journey from prestigious trial attorney to life coach reveals how our true purpose often hides in plain sight, waiting for us to finally notice the patterns.

Details

Growing up in poverty with colored lunch cards that signaled her family's financial struggles, Michele was determined to create a different life for herself. The legal profession seemed perfect—offering both status and the chance to defend the underdog, something she'd felt drawn to since childhood. For ten years, she thrived representing clients and fighting for justice in Florida courtrooms. Then came the turning point: a case where politics and connections appeared to override fairness. 

When Michele was sanctioned over what amounted to a document title error, her faith in the system crumbled. This disillusionment launched her onto a winding path of self-discovery that included retail sales, meditation, and ultimately, coaching—a role she'd unknowingly been preparing for her entire life.

Looking back, the signs were everywhere. At every workplace, Michele found herself training colleagues and being assigned to coach newcomers. These weren't random assignments but Spirit's persistent nudges toward her authentic purpose. It took a psychic mistakenly identifying her as a teacher to help her connect these dots.

Michele's story challenges us to reconsider what "purpose" really means. Is it about prestigious titles and conventional success? Or is it about recognizing those activities that bring us deep fulfillment, even when they appear in unexpected packages? Perhaps your life purpose isn't what you think it is—but rather something you've been doing naturally all along.

Have you been overlooking similar patterns in your own life? What might Spirit be trying to tell you through the recurring themes of your journey? Join us in exploring how to recognize, embrace, and step into your soul's true calling, even when it means leaving behind the life you thought you wanted.
