Proficient Life Coaching and Career Counseling

I am Michelle Porchia, a professional life coach, consultant, speaker, and trainer. For over 25 years, I have been developing and producing seminars, conducting workshops, and interacting with people, both in the public and private sectors.

As the former corporate trainer for HBO (Home Box Office), I have instructed, developed, and implemented seminars for managerial and professional staff. Additionally, I have worked at INROADS/ Fairfield-Westchester Counties for over four years, where I have designed training sessions for college students on how to succeed in today’s workplace.

Leadership Workshops for Youth

My youth work spans into the community and churches. I am one of the facilitators for the Rights of Passage, a session for young women/girls.

I have also conducted several leadership workshops for the youth enrolled in the “TOTAL” (Teaching Ourselves To Achieve Leadership) program, and College 101 and 102 sessions for the scholarship program at Mt. Aery Baptist Church, Bridgeport, CT.

18 Years of Inspiring Women

For over 18 years, I have been actively involved with Polly McCabe, the center for pregnant teens in the New Haven area, as well as conducting communication classes for New Haven’s Youth At Work Program. I have:

Lectured at the “Empowering Young Women in Business and Entrepreneurship” workshop at Yale.
Produced a series of seminars throughout middle schools within Connecticut.
Advisor to WALSA (Westover African-American/Latina Student Association).
Been an ADL (Anti-Defamation League) Trainer, where I facilitated workshops on “Bystander to Ally” and anti-bullying.
Spoken at several assemblies to middle and high school students.

Regardless of my age, I have been able to help youth grasp the core values from each session while maintaining a level of fun and interaction.

How I Can Help

Removing Obstacles

We all have places in our life where we are blocked. Working together, we will identify those impediments and find ways to overcome them.

Be Your Best Self

Life is full of opportunities, and it is my job to help you figure out which opportunities to take advantage of to live the life you want.

Live Your Dreams

When you choose to live a dream, you need a plan to make it come true. Once you have a plan, a coach will help you stick to it and get around any obstacles.

innergize day
(THE DAY AFTER THE AUTUMN SOLSTICE)

innergize day is celebrated the day after autumn begins because, like the Earth, people also need to experience a time of hibernation to prepare for renewal. With the hectic lifestyles these days, people often lament that they just don’t have time for themselves.

Imagine setting aside a day simply to relax and do something for yourself. While people cannot hibernate for as long as the Earth, they do need to take some time to rest, relax, and rejuvenate so that they can feel more.

“My goal is to get people to start with a day per year, progress to a day per month, then a day per week, and eventually an hour per day. I believe it is so important to have a time of self-celebration incorporated into one’s daily lifestyle.”
