First
things first... As a life and business coach that
focuses almost exclusively on the "LIFE" component
of the work and life balancing act, I think it would be fitting for me to
let you know a little about myself personally before
moving on to the other "stuff".... My name is
Michelle and I am married to Chris Pippin, who is my
best friend and truly the love of my life. Chris is
a public school teacher (one of the best) and I am
the homeschooling mom of three AWESOME kids: Summer,
age 9, Shelbey, age 7, and CJ, age 5. They are the
light of my life and the driving force behind my
passion for "working
my own way".
Now, onto the other "stuff": I am a speaker, coach,
and alternative work specialist with a passion for
helping others design their lives and their work
around their values. Moms today spend a great deal
of time trying to find creative solutions to meet
the needs of their children and their spouse as well
as squeeze in time to bring in an income and find
personal fulfillment. Many of these women choose
entrepreneurship as the path to achieve success on
their own terms. Many women absolutely love
their jobs and just need some coaching to create
better balance in their lives and have more time for
the ones they love. I am absolutely determined
to bring my mantra ,
work your own way
to women across the United States and beyond.
Although often accused of being that woman that
doesn’t think women should work, being a working mom
myself, my response is always the same.
NO, I am that woman who empowers other women to
WORK THEIR OWN WAY.
I have "listened to the heart" of many working
Mothers and come away with the following conviction:
We know how to succeed at work, but what keeps us up
at night is our concern over how we are fulfilling
our role as Mom at home.
During my career B.C. (Before Children) I have
provided parent education and support services to at
risk families and abused and neglected children. I
have nurtured youth in the juvenile court system,
encouraged them to pick up the pieces of their life
and coached them as they carved their own path
forward. I have provided countless home study
reports to court systems throughout the nation and
also dabbled in public relations. As a Human
Resource professional, I have made a name for myself
as the "Alternative Work Specialist". As a speaker,
I have spoken to thousands of people regarding
living a purposeful life, work and life redesign,
and building a passionate marriage.
A jack of all trades, Yes! But a Master of nothing?
Not quite! With an unrelenting commitment to family,
my passion for business startups, and my experience
in human resources, I have positioned myself as a
true RENEGADE and expert in the field of work and life balance.
RENEGADE? Absolutely, because I am committed
to breaking the rules, challenging the "norm", and
doing whatever it takes to create systems that allow
Moms to INVEST their time and energy at home without
giving up the success they deserve at work.
Still not sure? No sweat! Just email me at

acquainted" session. I will even pick up the long
distance tab!
