Michele Caron, CPC – My Story
Although my educational and career background was in science, engineering, research and computers, I always maintained an interest in human fulfilment and performance.
In the late 90’s, my mom phoned me, out of the blue, speaking a thousand miles per hour, almost breathless. “Michele, I found this article, there’s this thing, called coaching, I don’t really understand it, but it’s everything you always talk about…”
“Slow down, mom!” But she was right. I reached out to a local coach, and asked to buy him lunch. Turned out he happened to be close to Thomas Leonard, considered the Grandfather of modern coaching and exactly who my mom had read about in the article. The coaches I met were wise, authentic people catalyzing big differences in people’s lives. This was exactly the kind of field I wanted to get into.
“The coaches I met were wise, authentic people catalyzing big differences in people’s lives. This was exactly the kind of field I wanted to get into.”
I started attending conferences, and began my coach training, but I wasn’t ready to make the “big jump” from science/medicine/computers into coaching. But I did register the domain MyLifeCoach.com, confident in my dreams for the future.
The events of 9-11 were a major wake-up call for me in my life. I was very successful in my current career, but was it making a difference? I had this coaching thing on the back burner, what was I doing with it? It was time to make the big move. I left my corporate career and founded My Life Coach.
Within a couple of years, MyLifeCoach.com was Google’s #1 Life Coaching site in the world, I was coaching full-time, and I have been ever since. I am honored to have transformative conversations with brilliant people each and every day that change lives.

A lot has changed on the web and in the coaching industry since the aughts. Coaching has become big business and there are many big money players on the scene, and there is nothing wrong with that!
For myself, I have concentrated on individual Life Coaching and Executive Coaching. I have been coaching for over 20 years and have coached over 500 individuals, with well beyond the 10,000 hours of experience Malcolm Gladwell asserts leads to expertise. Some of my clients have been with me for over 10 years because they just love having me on their team!
Because of my experience I’ve also been sought out for speaking, TV, radio, podcasts, consulting, web work and helping other coaches build their businesses.
My main passion remains working with smart people that genuinely desire change in their life. My ideal client often has achieved a good amount of success in their life already but is starting to come up against some blocks. With coaching we can break through those blocks and take things to a whole new level, and learn a lot in the process. Coaching can help you become the person you were always meant to be.
“Coaching can help you become the person you were always meant to be.”
Coaching is a career that requires me to continuously develop my presence, performance, connection, heart and flow. I’ve seen what is possible for people when intention, focus, awareness and action are applied to the challenges of business, career, relationships and life. If you are curious, I encourage you to learn more about how working together, you could see your life change fundamentally and sustainably for the better.
Why Work With Me?
If it appeals to you to be living your life with purpose, authenticity, presence, connection, holistic health and heart-centered leadership, in a way that naturally and sustainable translates into flow and top performance, then you may want to pursue coaching with me.
The best way to discover if we have a synergy is to have a complimentary session with me. If you have made it this far, I invite you to do so!
Values, Meaning and Expression
I live in Wasaga Beach, Ontario, Canada, along the longest freshwater beach in the world. We also have lots of forest and escarpment ranges in the area.
My values include relationships, nature, music, presence, health, and experiences. I am interested in any activity that will help me evolve and grow as a person and as a coach.
I recently got my own motorcycle and have been riding for a few years. It enhances my ability to stay present and distinguish between mental fears and actual legitimate fear of things I should be aware of!
Spending time with the children I am close to in my life is especially important to me. I find that in the presence of a young person, both of us are flowing and heart-centered enough to have a wonderful and evolutionary effect on each other.
I bicycle ride with my rescue husky-border collie Mitzi every day…I do like to get lots of exercise and that is part of my routine. You can learn more about my Mitzi rides here.
I am challenging myself to learn to sing and participate in a community choir, also taking on the role of technical director.
I am extremely grateful to have incredible friends and family in my life that support me in doing this type of work. Orienting myself and my life around being present and loving with the people I find myself with in any given moment is my top priority.
