About Michelle

I’m Michelle Smith — Divorce Coach, child of divorce, twice-divorced (happily, not bragging), and daughter of divorce. My eldest is even a divorce lawyer, so yeah… I’m pretty much surrounded by divorce from every angle.

Here’s what that means for you: I get it. I’ve lived it. And I’ve learned that divorce doesn’t have to suck.

I’ve been through the stress, heartbreak, depression, rumination, self-pity, self-isolation, and endless worry. I know the traps because I fell into them. And now I coach others on how to avoid them and find a faster, smoother path to the other side.

My background? A BA in Sociology (Western University, 1990) plus fresh certification as a Divorce Coach (2025). But what really matters is this: I’m a straight-talking, divorce warrior who blends personal experience with tools, strategy, and empathy.

I collaborate with lawyers, therapists, and financial pros so you’re supported from all sides. I’ll share my real stories (including the mistakes), and give you the practical tools I wish I’d had. Together, we’ll protect your peace, rebuild your confidence, and help you create a life that feels good again.
