🤗 These are the trainings that shaped my toolkit. But the real magic ✨ comes from the moments we’ll share—where you discover your own truth.

“Every time I meet with Micki, I learn something new. She helps me understand the world around me and my place in it. I’m so grateful to have a supportive, non-judgmental adult to walk with me.”
~ Emma, 18

“Micki has truly helped shape me into who I am today. She’s always been there to listen, support, and guide me. Working with her has made me more self-aware, more confident, and more comfortable in my own skin.”
~ Meg, 18

🔥 Truth?
When I was a teen, I didn’t want advice from my parents. And I didn’t want a therapist.

I wanted an adult who just understood me.
Someone who could walk beside me without judgment—through the hormonal moods, the awkwardness, the identity shifts, the failures, the ever-changing looks, the everything.

I needed someone steady, safe, and real.
Now, I get to be that person for you.

👋🏾 Hi, I’m Micki.
I was immersed in the ballet world for most of my life—as a student, a professional, and a teacher. I’ve been walking (and usually dancing) beside teens for nearly two decades—as a ballet teacher and school director.

But I discovered that what lit me up the most isn’t the magic of the movement—it was the moments of connection with my students: the downtime conversations while stretching in the studio, hanging out backstage or laughing in the car on the way to the next event.

That’s where I found my true calling.

Those moments reminded me of my own teenage years—and how much it matters to have someone in your corner. I realized my purpose wasn’t just to teach ballet steps, but to guide young people as they take their own steps into adulthood.

☀️ Today, I’m a guide, a mentor, a coach.
I’m here to listen to you, challenge you, and walk with you through your transformation.
I’m here to help you see yourself clearly—and remember that your uniqueness is not a flaw.
It’s the key to your purpose.

If you feel a little lost in the “in-between,” I’d be honored to walk with you.

🌿 What I Bring to the Table

• Nearly 20 years of experience walking beside teens in their growth and challenges

• A background in Ayurveda, yoga, astrology, and elemental wisdom that gives us many ways to explore who you are

• Deep listening, honest reflection, and compassionate guidance that help you see yourself clearly

• A unique lens: Earth. Air. Water. Fire. These elements help us explore your inner world and uncover your true nature

This isn’t about “fixing” you.
It’s about discovering what’s already true—and learning how to trust it.

💫 Come explore with me. It’s a fascinating journey.
