About: My Journey
I'm Michelle Winn
Founder / EMCC Accredited Coach / Trainer
My journey hasn’t followed a straight path, but every twist has shaped the work I do today.
I started out as a Mental Health Nurse here in Guernsey, where I learned the power of empathy, listening, and staying calm in occasionally, challenging situations. I later stepped into leadership roles — which gave me a firsthand understanding of the pressure leaders and managers face, and how important it is to lead with both heart and clarity.
Later, I transitioned into training and development, helping organisations build skills in emotional intelligence, communication, and resilience.
Since then, I’ve lived & worked across cultures — from Yorkshire to Dubai — and earned a Master’s in Applied Positive Psychology & Coaching Psychology to deepen my practice. I’m now an EMCC-accredited Practitioner coach and Strengthscope® Master Practitioer, supporting people and organisations to build strengths, navigate change, and perform at their best. To reach their Peak Potential!
Whether I’m coaching a leader, running a team workshop, or helping someone rediscover their strengths, I bring a calm, grounded, encouraging approach — with just the right amount of challenge.
If you're looking to build confidence, resilience, and gain clarity in a fast-changing world — I’d love to support you.
