She knew young that she wanted to help people and decided to write this book as an extension of that. she aspires to help as many people as possible in life because she finds it fulfilling, Michell also believes that everyone has a story about how to overcome different tests and trials in life. Something that she follows is, "I have learned that nobody knows you better than you. Wholistic care is essential to having a balance. Internal love supersedes any other form of love outside of us. Once we begin to look within our own heart, we will meet our "true self" and not who society has suggested you should be or become.
