Personalized Strategies for Your Wholeness
Michelle Reese
At the age of 16, a dark depression brought suicidal thoughts to young Michelle Prebilic. She wasn't sure if this life was worth living. Life seemed hopeless and overwhelming. She felt lonely, scared, and confused - and deeply angry. Without skills and tools to see her way out, it seemed better just to end it all.
She had it all planned out.
Yet, through an unlikely series of events, Michelle landed in a therapist's office. This woman listened ... and listened. Michelle could tell, eventually, that the therapist believed in her. Every week, the therapist asked Michelle to commit to being back the next week. And Michelle promised, one week at a time. All the while, her loving high school sweetheart, a handsome, responsible boy, stayed by her side and encouraged her. With the help of these two magnificent souls, she eventually made a commitment to stay. And her commitment to creating a new life story began.
Michelle spent the last 40 years learning to love herself - and her high sensitivity - by working with many types of people - therapists, support groups, church groups, healers, biofeedback counselors, 12-step groups, self help resources, and coaches. She read as much as she could and used her courage to try new things. She paid more attention to what she ate and her lifestyle habits. As she has transformed her life, she created a new reality. Now she wants to inspire and help other Highly Sensitive Empaths to do the same for themselves.

Warrior Empath
Michelle grew up in the Washington, DC area in a large family of eight (8) children. As the oldest daughter and a twin in a household with seven (7) children under the age of 6 years old, she learned at a young age how to be responsible and take charge of situations.
Always career-minded, she earned a Bachelor of Arts in Social Psychology (B.A.), and later moved to California where she earned a Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.). In 1986, as she worked in the corporate world, she came across a couple of written works that became instrumental in her healing - Louise Hay's "little blue book," Heal Your Body, where Louise shared her healing journey back from cancer using a non-conventional approach. In that book, Louise shared that she believed that "dis-ease can be reversed by simply reversing mental patterns." Around the same time, Michelle discovered Creative Visualization by Shakti Gawain. These books became instrumental in Michelle's pursuit to create the life she wanted as she moved past the limitations of the past.

Michelle & Gordon Reese
Michelle's education in psychology and business created the perfect background to bring her to lifestyle coaching. As a manager and consultant for several fortune 500 companies for over 25 years, she learned how to work with a variety of people in corporate America, to communicate clearly and to help others achieve their goals - deadlines. As a technical writer, she learned how to take complex concepts that others wanted to communicate, and put them in easy, understandable and stylish formats as she authored corporate documents. As she raised her children, she published children's books and teen analytical essays. For 10 years she worked in the real estate industry in technical support, administration, and sales until the economy closed that door. And for the past 3 years, as a co-owner in Gordon Reese Design Build, the family remodeling business, she has developed amazing self-employment skills. She now serves as Vice President and a Board Member, mentoring Gordon on business strategies.
Michelle married in her 30's and poured her heart and soul into raising two children. After her divorce in her late 40's and remarriage in her 50's, Michelle continued to learn family dynamics first hand through the intricacies of living in a blended family and co-raising a step-daughter. Michelle is passionate about supporting the up and coming generation in healthy and consistent ways, and works hard to love and improve herself in her roles as mother, step-mother, wife and ex-wife. She lives in the San Francisco Bay Area of California with her husband and pets, and close to their adult children.
Michelle certified and licensed as a Heal Your Life Coach and Workshop Leader in 2014. She has completed Advanced Space Energy and Personal Energy Clearing Workshops annually since 2015.
