Michelle's Story

Managing your career takes a lot of energy at the best of times. And when you live with chronic illness, you need to spend your mental, emotional and physical energy much more wisely. So it takes clear strategy to both reduce the impact of stress and in fact accelerate your contribution in a meaningful way. Most of us are terrified about disclosing our chronic conditions, let alone advocating for support and modifications. So instead we push through and pay the price at the end of the day. Then get up to do it all again tomorrow. I know exactly what this feels like because this is the way I spent the first 5 years navigating the demands of senior leadership and my body. That was until, my body no longer cooperated on any level. 

One day I went to my regular hospital appointment and had to phone my Executive Leader and let them know I wouldn't be back to the office. And I had no idea when I would be able to return. Because that was the day that treatment for my life threatening autoimmune condition became acute, and I ended up bed-bound for the next 9 months. I was no only frightened about whether I was going to die of organ failure in the future but also about how I was going to financially support myself, my insurance claims and quite frankly how everything was going to work out.

I did recover to the degree that I could start to make plans to return to work. There were a lot of caveats - I had extreme fatigue, daily brain fog and of course heaps of anxiety. And in the following 18 months, I worked out exactly how to reestablish my career with excellent professional boundaries and reclaim my confidence. It was a painstaking process in many ways because the system was not set up to deal with someone returning to work with chronic illness. I didn't fit a lot of the boxes, afterall I didn't look sick. I often looked like I had energy and was fully able to contribute intellectually and creatively.

Over the next 15 years (including with another experience of being bed bound for months) I refined exactly how to firstly manage my own well-being while accelerating my career. How to develop beautiful professional relationship and stepped into my deepest authentic leadership.

And this is exactly what I now teach people around the world. I can guide you in the nitty gritty - how to have the difficult conversations, what to say, when and to whom. Plus at the strategy level, guiding you into the perfect plan where you thrive in the career of your choice in ways that work for you and your body.
