How to Trust Yourself & Make a Midlife Career Change: Michelle Theriault Part 1

  • Summary

  • Have you ever felt like you’ve checked all the boxes—career, family, responsibilities—but something still feels off?

    Maybe you’re standing at a crossroads, wondering what’s next.

    The answer? Learning to trust yourself.

    But how do you do that when self-doubt keeps creeping in?

    In this first part of a two-part conversation, I sit down with Michelle Theriault from the Mind Rebel Academy to talk about how to trust yourself—in life, in business, and in those big, scary career transitions. Michelle shares her own powerful story of leaving behind a life she’d outgrown, embracing the unknown, and making a midlife career change.

    If you’re on the brink of a midlife career change or just feeling stuck in the “what’s next?” phase, this conversation is for you.

    In this episode, we cover:

    • What is a life coach? And what does a life coach do? Michelle shares what real coaching looks like and why it’s not about handing out advice.
    • How to trust yourself when making a midlife career change or any life decision—even when it feels terrifying.
    • Michelle’s journey from stay-at-home mom to a life coach career that changed everything.
    • The power of community—why the people you surround yourself with can make or break your journey of learning to trust yourself.
    • Midlife career change—how to navigate the uncertainty and redefine what success looks like for you.
    • Learning to trust yourself in business: How Michelle and I built careers based on gut instinct and self-belief.

    If you’ve ever doubted yourself, hesitated to make a big move, or struggled to find the confidence to trust yourself and go after what you really want—this episode is for you.
