Testimonials
My Village Well creates the ideal space for sisterhood to flourish, with both deep connections to one another and space for self reflection. One can be real, uninhibited, and contemplative without judgement. My Village Well is a place for learning, understanding, empowerment, and above all, friendship. MVW is an answered prayer.

If there’s a place where it is possible to feel the joyful camaraderie, a lightness of being, where emotional obstacles are navigated in a safe and secure space that has been created for a wonderful group of women...
A place that is bound by trust, interspersed with laughter and a rollicking good time while being guided by Michelle, who relates and empathizes with us, cares deeply, while understanding each one of us...
it is Village Well.
- Alma U.
Discovering My Village Well and working with Michelle has been beautiful, empowering, comfortable, educational, and a true blessing. I am grateful for this tribe of passionate and enlightened people who come together with peace, love and openness in their hearts.

After Coaching with Michelle, I am more connected, open and curious. I have a stronger sense of what's important and a healthier self image because I value myself!
I have discovered that I am capable of being scared WHILE having new adventures, learning and growing.

The feelings of love and connectedness that I experienced with the other women while on retreat are unparalleled.
