VIP DAYS
"A vision's just a vision if it's only in your head.
If no one gets to hear it, it's as good as dead.
It has to come to light."
- Stephen Sondheim
You’ve been sitting on that big idea (ahem…and your potential) for months (maybe even years). You just can’t figure out how to get from where you are now to where you want to go.
Every time you start to think about it, you get so overwhelmed you drop it back to the bottom of the list.
But deep down, you know there’s something there and you don’t want to fuck around anymore. You want to get started with a clear path forward - and you want it now.
Whether you’re a mom looking to make an impact on your community, an entrepreneur with a new idea that’s percolating, an artist ready to launch your next project, or a CEO looking to change the culture of your company, let’s spend the day together and get you on your way.
"Michelle is my secret weapon..."
Her insightful, thoughtful, intuitive guidance has helped me navigate my job and life with fast results that would normally take months (or years!). She’s the perfect balance of warmth and strength; she’s right there with you, asking tough questions when confronting a challenge you’re having, and you’ll love her for it.”

"If only there were enough time..."
You and I both know that there will never be enough time until you make it.
You’ve got 867 responsibilities at home - plus a team to lead, an inbox that’s never empty, and 27 phone calls to return. So, the idea of spending any extra time (let alone 6 months coaching) suddenly feels like just another burden to add to the list.
What if you could iron out a strategic roadmap to bring your big idea to life in less than a day?
That’s precisely what we’ll do during our VIP Day.
Let me walk you through it:
First off, I’m gonna need a full picture of who you are and what you’re up to in your life. So, before our big day, you’ll complete a questionnaire to give me a clear understanding of what might prevent you from putting our plan into action.
We’ll check in on Zoom about two weeks before our VIP Day to set you up for success.
And then, we’ll spend an entire day together. I’ll work my magic so you’ll leave with a big beautiful master plan that’s easier to show up to than to procrastinate on.
And yes, of course, you’ll be armed with tools to bypass the pesky doubts and distractions that have stopped you before.
After the big day, I want to make sure we leave no stone unturned. Which is why you can check in with me after we meet.
When you hit a bump in the road or have an exciting realization, just hit me up and we’ll figure out how to work it into the plan.
And just like that, you’re off to the races!
But I’ll make sure to schedule two accountability calls so you have all the support and cheerleading you need for even a couple of months after our VIP Day.
"Things feel possible in a way they never have before…”
“Before I began working with Michelle, I was overwhelmed and barely maintaining for months. I needed a change.
Through our work, I’ve experienced so much growth. I finally have a plan to achieve my goals. I’m taking the steps that I needed to make but was avoiding.
Michelle's given me amazing tools that have helped me make some very necessary changes. I feel more at ease, more positive, and more excited about growing. It’s the best work I’ve done in years.”

When I was thinking about becoming a coach, I went back and forth for YEARS before I finally took the plunge.
I dreamed about owning my own business but every time I started to think about it, all I heard in my head was “How are you going to actually make money?” and “How are you going to make that happen? You don’t know anything about starting a business.” and “You need to be practical, Michelle. This is NOT practical."
It didn’t matter what anyone else said to me. Those voices were so loud that they stopped me in my tracks.
But that feeling that I wanted something different, that something else was out there for me - that never stopped.
Finally, after years and years of convincing myself I couldn’t, I got into action and took a few steps to see if coaching was even something I WANTED to do.
Turns out, it was what I’m meant to do and with the tools I learned along the way, I was able to start my own business, get clients, and create sustainable income in my first year.
Finding a way forward was always available to me - I just needed help to map it out. I’m guessing that’s exactly what you need as well…
There's a way forward...you just need help mapping it out.
If you’re looking for:
💥 Dedicated time to create some space and get clear about what direction you want to
go in so you can intentionally create your future
💥 A clear master plan to get you into action around a goal that’s important to you
💥 A deep dive into what’s held you back up until now
💥 Innovative, intelligent tools to move forward and never look back
💥 A path to get from A to Z with accountability to stay on track
You’re in the right place!
Curious? Have questions? Let's hop on the phone (or zoom - whichever you prefer) so we can decide together if a VIP Day makes sense.
"I have a new voice in my head, one that says, 'Of course you can make this happen...Why not?'"
"Before finding Michelle I can safely say I was in a place of despair. I had been to graduate film school, I had had some successes, but none of them had turned into the "big break" I had been working towards.
I was deeply burnt out, feeling mediocre and fearing that I was a failure. From our very first conversation, I could feel that Michelle was going to help things shift for me-- and she has. The change I am experiencing is both internal and external. I am enjoying writing again! I have new ideas! Ideas that are even more in alignment with my deep self, who I am, and the kind of work I want to make.
Working with Michelle is this wonderful combination of the tangible and intangible coming together. The mind and body. The spiritual and the professional.
Her thoughts, advice, and approach are so actionable and so direct. Simultaneously, things are shifting in these very internal ways that honestly sometimes just feels magical. Like, how is this happening? But it is and it is amazing. Working with Michelle is truly life-changing."
-Francesca Mirabella, Filmmaker and Writer
"Michelle lovingly strips away the habits you've relied upon and hidden behind to help you see a new, more fruitful path..."
"Michelle is the real deal, she will not allow you to cut corners or sell yourself short and she's with you every step of the way. Her energy is infectious. She has powerfully impacted and invigorated our our partnership and is the secret weapon that has set us apart from the pack. Get yourself a Michelle Pollack!"

“I didn’t even know what I was coming to you for… I just knew, ‘Shit. I can’t keep going this way for the rest of my life.’”
“Before working with Michelle, I felt very afraid, negative, and even paralyzed at times. I didn’t really see a future for myself. I felt nervous thinking about what's next for me when my kids are grown up. I didn’t really have the energy and the optimism. I felt very stifled and a little lost. I wasn’t excited about anything. Everything just felt blech.
After working with Michelle, I’m actively pursuing the things that WILL work for me. I’m curating my life in a very intentional way. I’m staying more present. I’m protecting my boundaries. I’m trusting myself more. I’m not procrastinating. I’ve stopped catastrophizing.
Even though I had no idea what I wanted out of my experience working with Michelle, she knew how to get to the core of what was keeping me stuck. I got tools, I got support. I got clarity.”

“My tank was empty – I was close to burn out…”
“I didn’t know if I was exhausted or in need of a transition. I felt like I was starting to resent my path (it’s been a challenging few years).
After working with Michelle, I see there are doors I can open. There are new ways I can grow. I feel a new sense of clarity and energy around my professional goals.
All these new opportunities opened up for me. I was like, ‘WHAT ARE THESE?’
I also received a grant that’s given me an opportunity to build upon my scholarly career.
Michelle helped me reframe my career path in an exciting, positive way.”
