Why study with them?
Michelle brings her diverse life experiences into death’s sacred transition. She was raised in Southern California where she watched the farm land and open space be covered with pavement. Her deep connection with the wild and spiritual world motivated her to explore different life alternatives After graduating with a BS in Zoology she became a US Peace Corps volunteer in the Philippines. Living in an earth-based culture changed the direction of her life.
