COACHING FOR SELF-ACTUALIZERS
Unstuck
Shift
Transform
Michelle Ma, CPCC, ACC, MBA
A professional coach and former product leader and tech startup founder, I work with self-actualizers around the world to maximize their personal and professional potentials. By being a keen inquirer, nonjudgmental observer, and co-creative thought partner, I help clients get unstuck from stagnant situations, shift negative energy and limiting thought patterns, unveil new possibilities, and create solutions guided by their inner wisdom. If you have a longing for change or a desire to fulfill an aspiration in life/career but struggle to make things happen, let’s explore what’s possible.
Through thought-provoking, nonjudgmental coaching conversations, I hold a safe and focused space for clients to explore with depth, reflect with clarity, and move forward with resonance.

From My Clients
Working with Me
-
New Client Starter Program
If you are a new client, we go through a discovery process first to establish an indepth understanding of who you are, where you want to go, and area of focus for coaching. It is done through personal story tellings and inquries. You will come out with fresh clarity about your values, strength, purpose, and begin to connect with your inner resources. After that we go through a series of topic-driven sessions related to the area of focus, and end with a completion session. It typically takes 8-12 sessions over 4-6 months.
-
Initiative-Based Program
If you have a life/career-changing event, e.g. transitioning to a new job, starting a new chapter in life, or you have a personal or professional goal to achieve such as an important work project, we can co-create a program focused around it. I partner with you to achieve desired outcomes by providing motivation, clarity, focus, and accountability over a defined period of time (typically 3-6 months). Personal growth experienced at the whole person level will impact other parts of your life. This model is only available to established clients.
-
Growth Partner Membership
The membership program helps you to prioritize personal growth as an essential part of your daily life. You work with me as your growth partner on a continuous basis (monthly) on topics of your choosing. It can help elevate your consciousness, remove stagnant energy when needed, achieve personal or professional goals, and develop self-mastery over time. We co-create development cycles every 3-6 months to keep the process productive. This model is only available to established clients.
Sessions are typically done virtually over Zoom. If you are in the Bay Area, we can also meet in person in my private office in Palo Alto. Get started or learn more by scheduling a free consultation call (30 min).
