Johann Hari’s TED talk – ‘Everything you think you know about addiction is wrong,’ has been an inspiring insight into addiction and a favourite of mine for sometime. It’s a powerful tool to share with those working their way through the trials of addiction with someone they love, it brings understanding, reason, new possibililty and a more connected, inclusive approach to healing and positive, sustainable change.

A beautiful invitation to deepen our understanding, compassion and response to those who feel disconnected from themselves, their family, community, and especially their heart and soul.

When a close friend or member of our family have an intimate affair with drugs it’s an opportunity for us to walk the talk. To be present, unconditional love, truly compassionate, to let go of blame, guilt, judgement, to have clear boundaries, keep them close and shed light in the darkness so the truth can prevail.

Remembering every challenge is opportunity for growth. This is the human experience, consciousness is called for here. Believe me when I say ‘nothing will ever teach you the depths of authenticity, compassion, non judgement, non blame of yourselves or others as the journey this can take you on. Walking this journey consciously can gift you more than you will ever know’

Remembering that love is neither complacent or inactive. Love comes in many forms including tough love, authentic conversations, clear boundaries, the word No, truth … all delivered from love as opposed to fear.

Remembering that drugs are only one addiction, what we see in another gives us opportunity to heal the addictions we carry ourselves, however big or small that might be.

Work, money, fitness, extreme sports, chocolate, food, self harm, smoking, sex, gossip, drama, chaos, unhealthy relationships, even blaming ourselves for our children’s inflictions … a plethora of opportunity lives here.

People do what we do, not what we say.

Healing equates to wholeness, remembering you are already whole.

Reconnecting to who you really are, to remember you are already whole, to be the embodiment of self love, to self nourish, to be authentic and live your truth. That’s what’s called for here.

When you love yourself fully, you give others permission to do the same. In seeing the light in yourself, you can see the light in another until they can see the light in themselves. See their light not their darkness, hold the essence of who they are, their light in your heart, send love, send light to their heart everyday until they can do the same.

Be not the victim of their choices, but the warrior of truth in grace, be their light until they can come home lovingly, truthfully to the truth in themselves.They are love, you are love and we are never alone.

Knowing sometimes that’s not their souls story, there is something they are choosing to experience on a soul level we, even they will never know or pretend to understand. In that space also lives a deep and uncomfortable acceptance that we can love, show up, be present, connect do everything we know, but we cannot control.

In this place seek the light, where darkness starts to grow. Be committed to the truth that there’s something’s we will never know.

Give solace to the truth that you ache in your heart and soul. Be truthful to the grief and sadness and then let it flow, but don’t let it consume you and steel your heart away. Don’t be the victim of another’s circumstance and push others away.

Be committed to your own wholeness, be committed to the truth that you are already whole.

Let this be the gift they give you, a true understanding and connection to your soul. It’s not a comfortable journey but one that can gift you with more than you ever thought you needed to know.

After having known and worked with Michelle for many years I was very fortunate to join Michelle’s Soulprenuer group. During this time I was very ill and spent a week in hospital having many tests and with many doctors trying to find out the problem. To no avail. I was sent home to deal with the symptoms myself. Fortunately for me Michelle was able to help facilitate my body releasing, healing and getting back on track with (in her words) ease and grace. For 3 months I was unbearably nauseous and nothing would help me, acupuncture, drugs, essential oils and more, I tried everything. In one quick session Michelle changed my world forever and it stopped. It really felt like a miracle as I was at the stage I thought I would be like that forever.

Michelle quite simply has an extraordinary talent. She has an innate ability to not only meet you where you are at but also to bring you back to you…the real you… with such loving gentleness and wisdom. She is wise, trustworthy and very intuitive. She will rock your world…in an amazing way!

‘Michelle is in a different stratosphere to all other coaching experiences. Her focus on going for the highest within yourself and in relationship to others has created the most transformation that I’ve ever experienced. It’s the first time I’ve had real and lasting change and real manifestation of the outcomes I choose for my life. Her style is loving, truthful and expansive and the SOULpreneurs group is loving and supportive. Michelle sets up an enquiry which creates a more expansive way of being. This expansion has created a higher vibration and much higher outcomes than I’ve ever experienced before in my life. I’m very grateful to have found her and as the journey continues what I’ve already gained is priceless.’

‘I wanted to make the perfect video and then I remembered I left that illusion behind in Kenya. I left a lot of things behind in Kenya, my sense of worthlessness, my self doubt and my identity.

But I brought a lot back with me too. An understanding of my deservedness, my self-love, and I claimed my power. I also brought back with me a new family. An amazing group of people who became my teachers, my friends, my confidantes, and a source of my clarity and of my inspiration.

There were many things I took from Kenya, and many things I left behind but there is one thing Kenya stole and that is my heart. It was stolen by the warmth of the people, by the sincerity in their smile and the light in their face, it was stolen by the land, the rich landscape of lush green tea country, great rift valleys, flat African plains and tranquil lakes, it was stolen by a majestic giraffe, an elegant elephant and a brave leopard. It was stolen by an incredibly special little girl in Kipchamgaa Children’s Home named Pikoty but mostly it was stolen by an amazing woman named Michelle Richmond. She stole my heart but in return, I saw my light and now I’m the richest I’ve ever been.

What a Life Changing experience working with Michelle.
To experience the African wilderness, I was very sure about not losing my connection with the outside world.  Instead it was simply the best thing that could happen. It was only when I lost my connection to what I thought and felt were important and moved into the White Space, did I discover a deeper connection to my inner self.The Safari, experience with the magic of the animals, culture, the people and places was amazing. However it was the side show to what I experienced connecting into myself to realise who I was and realise what was really important.
Thank you Michelle, for providing the fun, space and awareness to becoming the better version of me.

I’m writing this testimonial about Soulpreneur, a one year self realisation program run by Michelle Richmond, who I call the “Game Changer Extraordinaire”.

If you feel you keep repeating the same experiences in Business, Relationships and Life in general and you are getting bored of that, Michelle and Soulpreneur are your answer.

If you find yourself in Relationships, Business or Life in general and you are not happy, Michelle and Soulpreneur are your answer.

If you find you have been searching your whole Life, but you haven’t found what you are looking for – again Michelle and Soulpreneur are your answer.

Don’t get me wrong, Michelle and the Soulpreneur program did not just give me the answer I was looking for. What would be the sense in that.

This is not a quick fix it, no work involved type of course. It’s not a “Lifeline” one can call when things don’t go our way. This course is much more than that! This course enabled me to remember all that I already knew, to be all that I already am, but had forgotten.

This course is based on the premise that deep down, all of us have the wisdom we require to deal with any situation in Business, Relationships and Life.

This course brought me in touch with my innate knowing and it helps me to courageously follow my “Gut Instinct”. Since completion of the Soulpreneur program I am in flow. I create consciously the reality I want to experience. I shifted from a paradigm of occasional struggle, pain and hardship to one of freedom, joy and happiness.

Sounds like “new age” mumble jumble to you and something any “hippie” should enrol into but not you? Think again! Take it from a Group General Manager of a midsize company who is sailing through Business and Life right now.

I bumped into Michelle about 8 years ago at various networking events and she was somebody I was instantly drawn to. At the time I was running myself into the ground, with 3 business and various other projects I felt I needed to be involved in, but at the same time feeling like I wasn’t achieving anything.  At the time I had no idea of what working with Michelle was going to be like or what I was actually after, all I knew is that life needed to change!

My life unraveled, but in a good way. Things that weren’t serving me seemed to disappear, I become more focused on what I wanted to achieve and only started doing things that made my heart sing.  What surprised me the most was the fact that what I thought I wanted, turned out to be something else entirely.

Over the years I still “tap” into Michelle, when I feel like I am drifting away or I feel life is becoming too hard, and she realigns me.  I become reconnected and ready to achieve whatever my heart desires.   Now my dreams/ plans are just getting bigger and bigger.

What excites me now is Michelle running her various African Safari’s.   I love travelling and doing things outside of the ordinary, and I can say the Safari’s are certainly not ordinary.  Not only do you get to immerse yourself in the African culture, but you also have the opportunity to work 24/7 with Michelle.   Since doing one of her safari’s, I am now a more relaxed person, doing only things that make my soul sing and earning more money than I have ever earned!

As a person who spent the majority of their life being overly self critical and completely overthinking every aspect of life to a point where your thoughts become a burden , taking time to be present with myself was the last thing I ever wanted to do and the thought of working with these “life/wellness coach” type of people who want to see you meditating on top of a mountain whilst holding a yoga pose had me calling bullshit.
Unfortunately also not addressing the issues at hand with my mental psyche and internal dialogue had me facing a crisis of identity, massive amounts of anxiety and was clinically diagnosed with depression at a stage of my life . If it wasn’t for finding Michelle and her beautiful approach to self exploration I would not be the person I am today and I probably would not have survived . Her beautiful manner of coaching and adapting to the person in front of her meant I was finally able to take on board smart ideas to arm myself with the tools to succeed in life and create a life I wanted to live AND live in.
For me, she was able to take the stigma and marketing of “personal development “ and “wellness coaching” that usually has me running for the hills and give me tools that allow me adaptability throughout my life to take on anything and now self coach any situation I may face. Far from a motivational guru looking to scream in your face (something I also loath) her piercing blue eyes and soft nature will allow you to feel comfort to start repairing and rebuilding your life with a subtle ease and without all the bull shit . Even with a stubborn hard ass such as myself =)

I had the great pleasure of working solidly with Michelle for 12 months. I won’t say it was easy, but I can honestly say that I have never EVER valued an experience more highly in my life – transformational in every sense of the word.
I have also never been more proud of an investment. I’ve spent a considerable amount on experiences, adventures, professional development and other ventures throughout the course of my life – some more rewarding than others. But none have been even 10% as rewarding or exhilarating as working with Michelle. Michelle’s program literally transformed me into the best and most positive version of myself. Knowing how great it feels and how empowering it is to discover my true self at this stage in my life, there is no amount I wouldn’t have paid for that privilege.
When I think back to who I was in 2015, I can hardly recognise myself. My approach to life, my emotional reactions and responses to the world around me, and my perceptions of myself and others, have changed so considerably that there is literally not a day goes by that I don’t think to myself “Thank you Michelle!”. I now attract so much love, beauty, prosperity and opportunity into my life that there is no space for anything else. Where previously things would have thrown me or upset me, I am now able to objectively reframe them and to appreciate them for the learnings or the opportunities they present.
We train our bodies, we train our minds; we feed our bodies, we feed our minds… How often do we actively train our emotions and beliefs, or truly feed our souls. This is where the power lies. Michelle will shift you from a life based on fear, to a life lived with love.  And there is nothing more phenomenal than that transformation. Nothing.
I love you Michelle. Thank you. Xx

Familiar connections are the most powerful on earth. Yet aspects of our beliefs, lineage, culture & environment can see us disconnecting from that which we cherish most. Igniting soulful parenting is hugely powerful and sees your family being united by forces stronger than any earthly conditions. And that’s the invitation here. To expand new levels of ever deepening soulful love and connection! This is a time like no other in known history, where we are being called upon to expand beyond the linear paradigms we have been living in, our limitations of the past and our lineage, and be leaders in consciousness in our families and our world.
