"I attended a Shamama workshop, and it was phenomenal. I went to places inside myself I didn't know existed and expressed myself in ways I didn't know I could." - Tonika L. Grand Rapids, Michigan

"Thank you SO much for your guidance, love and light yesterday. I had a very powerful experience. You truly are a vessel. I felt clarity and an openness after our session and it stayed with me throughout the day. I had rehearsal with my band and ideas were flowing. I was able to express these ideas and communicate them with ease, and I felt open to express my emotions musically too, which is not always easy for me." H.S. Grand Rapids, MI

"Every aspect (of the retreat) held significant insight, healing, purging, and far exceeded my dreams!!" Anonymous

"I came away transformed. I have never felt so rooted to community, connected with my craft, and at peace within. I am not sure if it was the breathwork, easy conversations, or walks in nature, but I know it changed me, and I can't wait to come back next year!" L.W. Troy, MI

"So glad to have found this transformational group! It saved my life during a dark, cold MI winter. Michele brings so much positivity, enthusiasm, and creativity to each class. She presents information in a fun variety of activities that always seems to lead to an epiphany of self-discovery. Take the hike, draw the doodles, zone out to the drums!!" -Juliana B. Denver, CO

"Thanks to both of you for creating a calm, open, welcoming space, or perhaps it was attracting the right group. It was a rich time away from other pressures and concerns." - K.O. Ada, MI

"The self discovery is amazing with all the activities that are offered here. It is a welcome release of energy from within." -J.V. Walker, Michigan

"I appreciated the sacred honor and space given for each person's own process and that the focus was on our own journey and work, that offering remarks, comments, insights on each other's work or process was not part of the program. I have experienced that in other events or classes and generally find it unhelpful and unhealthy. If participants were interested in feedback from others, there was plenty of time for those chosen conversations. I frankly have plenty to attend to in my own unfolding!"—Anonymous

"Michele, it is evident that you work with Spirit guidance. You are a wonderful facilitator. Energetic. Also able to step back, be quiet, trust and allow." Anonymous

"I don’t really understand what happened yesterday at our private session, but I think you beat the shit out of my energy…I still feel totally different, like I have this clarity that I was beginning to hone…I feel so powerful, now.…I can’t tell you how much it meant to me when you were speaking to me and looking into my eyes; it was like you were talking directly to my subconscious or something. The things you were saying sounded so out of my reach, if I thought about them consciously , but the way you spoke to me made them sound inevitable. And I’m painting. Who are you?! Thank you!" M.M., Grand Rapids, MI

"You transfix me!  I still think of you every day.  I find empowerment in your words -- there are many moments where I still get stuck in that ugly ego place where fear wants to shout in my ears and push me back to that space where I feel paralyzed.  I am making gains every day!" C.H., Grand Rapids, MI

"Michele, you are so powerful, yet relatable, and your light warms each person." Anonymous
