13: Michelle Gardiner on Life After… leaving my vision, mission, and purpose: Following your intuition, finding your people, and redefining ‘home’.
Description
What if the life you’re meant for starts the moment you finally listen to that inner nudge?
This week, I’m joined by Michelle Gardiner, a speaker, storytelling coach, and founder of The Aspire Series. Her story of packing up everything she knew to follow a feeling might just inspire you to do the same.
From walking away from a life that no longer fit, to building community in Bali, to returning to Melbourne and stepping into a new chapter, Michelle’s story is a powerful reminder that ‘home’ isn’t a place; it’s a sense of self, community, purpose, and belonging.
In this episode, we chat about:
- What happens when you follow your intuition, even when it makes no sense
- The power of community and finding your people wherever you are
- Redefining ‘home’ through connection, identity, inner trust, and purpose
- Navigating life pivots, new chapters, and letting go of what others expect
- What it means to hold an unfounded vision, stand in it fully, and bring it into fruition
- The real talk on motherhood, relationships, and making decisions for you
Michelle doesn’t sugarcoat the messy middle, and that’s exactly what makes her story so powerful.
If you’ve ever wondered “What if?” about a big move, a career shift, or a life change you can’t quite explain, you need to listen to this conversation.
