About Me
Helping those living with grief to embrace life with resilience and joy, to gracefully glide through life’s chapters and shine!
I'm Michelle, I love exploring new ideas and different perspectives to find the best solutions for everyone involved.
Recently, my family faced a huge shock. My husband was unexpectedly diagnosed with a terminal illness, and just four months later, our children and I were by his side as he took his last breath. This experience was a rollercoaster that shook our foundations.
I approached this incredibly difficult time with thoughtfulness, balancing compassion, sadness, and uncertainty with a desire to embrace the situation and find any joy there was to be. I aimed to learn and grow from the experience as it unfolded & I continue to do so, the lessons keep coming.
Now, I’m dedicated to empowering others when dealing with grief, disappointment, loss, and trauma. embracing their situations with positivity, hope and excitement.
I'm a business owner, mother, and widow who is passionate about living well after experiencing loss, change, disappointment, or failure. I believe this is a choice available to all of us.
Each of us is unique…positively unique which means there is no rule as to how to deal with trauma. Glide gracefully through the next chapters of your life, with resilience and joy with me.
One other way in which I aim to support people is through my newly set up charity, The Riggo Foundation, named in memory of Gareth. The aim of the charity is to raise money to support young people who have experinced various types of trauma in their lives. I’m extremely excited about this venture and can’t wait to share more with you soon!
