An Introduction…

 

Michelle Livingston Thorstad

Speaker I Counselor I Freedom Fighter

Michelle passionately believes that understanding who you are and why you exist unlocks a life of freedom, joy, and fulfillment. Yet, many are trapped in destructive mindsets like comparison, performance-based acceptance, shame, perfectionism, desolation, and people-pleasing. These toxic belief systems keep individuals stuck in cycles of unhealthy thought patterns, preventing them from having healthy relationships and becoming who God created them to be.

Fortunately, there’s a Rhemady (REH-muh-dee) for that.

While we can’t always control what happens to us, we can choose our response and the narrative we speak over ourselves.  For almost two decades, Michelle has had the honor of journeying with people who decide to embrace what life brings by reframing their perspective and the reprieve it has brought into their lives.  This has put her on a mission to liberate people from harmful paradigms that are holding them back and prohibiting them from walking in true freedom.

Through her engaging keynote speeches, Michelle fosters an environment of transparency, authenticity, and hope. She inspires people to discover their true selves and reshape their perceptions, enabling them to navigate their journeys with clarity and confidence. She teaches others how to live a life infused with joy and purpose, and how to maneuver through the hard stuff with gratefulness and grace.

It’s a message that impacts both the young and old alike and is felt in the hearts of her audiences as she motivates them to reach for their potential.
