Michele Lisenbury Christensen

Michele Lisenbury Christensen coaches those who’re ready to transcend prior limitations and build lives of contribution and delight… because she’s done that herself. Raised in Alaska as the daughter of the original “Ice Road Trucker,” her style blends grit and grace, soulful wisdom and practical know-how. Since 1997, she’s guided ambitious people, many of them neurodivergent, recovering addicts, or frustrated “underachievers” or perfectionists - all of which describe her, as well - to build the businesses, bodies, relationships, homes, wealth, and legacies they hoped but doubted they could… Without compromising their values or their vitality.Having worked with executives at Fortune 50 companies, VCs, entrepreneurs, and pro athletes, Michele’s approach is always pragmatic and tailored to the client yet she integrates a meditative, inside-out ethos. Her clients expand their capacity for courage, intentional risk, consistency, self-honesty and leading others… personally and professionally. 

Her personal journey — including early loss, relationship betrayal, addiction and recovery, straddling social classes, entrepreneurship, mothering and a 25+ year marriage — allows her to bring empathy and effective tools to a wide range of clients. A visionary, a performer, and a bookworm who lost 95 pounds in 2018 and has kept it off, Michele believes today is all we’ve really got and that todays the perfect time to become who we dream of being. She relates with vulnerability, humor, and an often non-linear take on situations. When she’s not mentoring individuals and couples to revolutionize their lives and relationships, she’s privately enjoying her own dear ones and many spots on this gorgeous planet.
