I was working through a really hard time and was in a deeply anxious period of life. I was feeling stuck in many ways like a car spinning its wheels in the mud, unable to gain enough traction to move at all. I don’t know how aware I was of this feeling even at the time, but in hindsight, it is very clear to me. I began to hope that Michele would be like a light in my life, shining on me with her questions and observations. She brought things to the surface of my mind that I hadn’t wanted to talk about or wasn’t even conscious of. And as I saw that she was completely in my corner, I knew that I could trust her because she always has my growth as her goal. Michele has been a wise and trustworthy guide, and I would not be who I am today without her caring and shaping presence in my life.
