Michelle Diederich, B.S., PCC

I live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, where the rhythm of the rain, the stillness of the forest, and the quiet resilience of nature mirror how I move through life. I share my days with my best friend and husband, our incredible daughter, our loyal yellow lab, Gideon, and four cats—Donner, Jupiter, and our two newest little chaos-makers, Simon and Jack.

 

Living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), and chronic pain, I understand what it means to navigate a body that doesn’t always cooperate while still showing up for life. I know what it’s like to listen to my body, adapt, and seek out spaces where I don’t have to explain myself. My experience has shaped me, but it does not define me—just as I believe no diagnosis, challenge, or role should define you.

 

For nearly two decades, I’ve supported leaders, professionals, and caregivers navigating chronic illness, neurodiversity, and significant life transitions—whether parenting your parents, leading teams through uncertainty, or balancing personal well-being with professional success. Before remote work became the norm, I was already blending on-site leadership coaching in Silicon Valley with the flexibility of working from home, designing workshops and webinars that help people thrive personally and professionally.

 

Here, in this space, you don’t have to explain yourself. Whether you’re navigating caregiving, leadership, chronic illness, or identity, this is a place where you are fully seen and understood—without judgment or expectation.

 

Maybe this is when you realize you don’t have to do this alone. Perhaps this is the invitation you didn’t know you needed. Either way, I’m here.
