Guiding Entrepreneurs From Overwhelmed To Unstoppable

Entrepreneurs tend to fail for one of six reasons. Are you falling into any of these traps?

Drowning in an endless list of possibilities.

Each new "exciting idea" becomes another excuse to avoid taking real action.

Chasing every shiny opportunity that appears.

These are distractions from doing the work that actually grows your business.

Dismissing mindset work as “fluffy nonsense.”

Meanwhile, your self-doubt and limiting beliefs are silently sabotaging your success.

Watching another day slip through your fingers.

The days start with promise, but the lack of structure is rapidly depleting your time.

Letting the fear of failure keep your plans small.

Your comfort zone feels safe, but it's where your growth dies.

Believing "real entrepreneurs do it alone."

Your ego and stubborn independence is costing you months of progress and guidance.

If you have fallen into any of these traps, you’re not alone.

These are more than just business challenges. They're the internal obstacles that can cause talented entrepreneurs to question their value and shrink their dreams. Don’t let this happen to you.

It's time to evolve from overwhelmed to unstoppable.

Let’s get to work.

Who are you?

Hey y’all! I’m Michelle. I’m the coach for high-achieving entrepreneurs that guides them from being overwhelmed to becoming unstoppable.

Drawing from over two decades of elite customer experience leadership (including at Walt Disney World, Starbucks, and a global SaaS company), I’ve discovered that professional success does not equal personal fulfillment.

After feeling trapped by others' definitions of success, I chose to break free from what I was “supposed to do”, and began to rebuild my life from the ground up. Now I’m showing other entrepreneurs how to do the same in their lives.

I’m dedicated to helping entrepreneurs break free of their self-imposed limitations, turn their endless lists into plans of action, and grow into the leader they’ve always known they were capable of becoming. Whether I’m on stage, recording a podcast, or coaching you one-on-one, I’m here to help you reach the next level of business. If you want to know more about me, click here.

What my clients are saying:

  • Practical + Transformative Guidance

    “I have been so lucky to work with Michelle Gruening over the last year and a half. From the very first session, Michelle created a warm, welcoming environment that made me feel comfortable and understood. Her approach is compassionate, yet highly practical—helping me uncover behaviors about myself while giving strategies to achieve my goals.

    As a small business owner, it is so nice to have someone in your corner to listen, question and devise a plan. Changing thinking patterns and actions is difficult enough to do by yourself, but to know you have another viewpoint is so amazing! Whether it was goal-setting, time management, or overcoming self-doubt, I always left our sessions feeling like I had a clear path forward.

    My time with Michelle is invaluable and has gotten rid of stressful situations that I found myself in over and over. I have received such great support and am continuing to grow, both personally and as a business owner.”

    - Renee Johnson, Orangetheory Fitness Franchise Owner

  • 5x Business Growth

    “Earlier this year I decided to invest in myself. Michelle is worth every penny. My personal growth this year has been extraordinary and it has spilled over into every part of my life, even my business. I have grown my client base five times what it was this time last year. And the best part is, I can handle the growth because I have grown personally. I’m a boundary setting, self-aware, goal accomplishing queen. I’m so thankful for her.”

    Lisa Leanne, Owner of Esthetics with Love Salon and Spa

  • Increased Confidence + Productivity

    “MG Coaching has been such an asset to my business journey. Michelle is knowledgeable, professional and truly cares about my growth as a business owner. She has guided me through the peaks + pits of entrepreneurship, while providing me with the proper tools to move forward in the future. Michelle has pushed me out of my comfort zone (many times) both personally & professionally by encouraging me to set goals and hold myself accountable, all while being intentional and enjoying the process of entrepreneurship. My confidence is at an all-time high because Michelle has helped me develop skills to help take my business to the next level. My profits + productivity have grown so much over the past year and that is truly a reflection of MG Coaching’s guidance and support.”

    Katy Brosious, Owner of King Interior Designs

  • Reclaimed Control + Focus

    “Working with Michelle has been extremely transformative and restorative for how I view myself and the world around me. After enduring some major life changes, I no longer viewed myself as the person in charge of my life. I didn’t feel confident in my choices and I felt stuck and ambivalent about my next steps. With the Mastermind group, Michelle met me without judgment, listened to me, and guided me through understanding what I really wanted out of my life. Having accountability with other people who are aspiring to improve themselves offers comfort and reassurance that I am making progress. Now, I’m pursuing a career path that I want, I’m setting boundaries, and I’m focused on self-care. It’s been a 180 from how I started the year!”

    Chauntée Clark, Fintech + Risk Management Consultant

  • Personal and Professional Focus

    “I joined Michelle’s Mastermind looking for professional growth and training. Not only did it deliver on that promise, but it also exceeded my expectations. Michelle's coaching has helped me find my focus both in my personal and professional life. I better understand my strengths and how to use them. I feel supported, heard, and challenged to always take the next step in my journey for growth. This has been a reset for my frame of mind and my vision. I feel more at peace and centered, which has allowed me greater growth both personally and professionally. I would strongly recommend Michelle's Mastermind training to anyone who is looking for growth, guidance, and support in any facet of life.”

    Stephanie Arthur, Creative Works

  • Clarity + Systems Implementation

    “Between her hearing my words and repeating them back to me so I slow down and hear myself, books she’s recommended, the accountability, and mindset shifts that were so necessary, my mindset has made a huge change. She’s helped me hone in on and implement systems that I desperately needed, and she’s helped me see what I need and what I actually don’t.

    She’s one of the reasons I’m still an agent and a successful agent. I truly can’t recommend her enough. I cant imagine anyone working with her who doesn’t improve and reach their goals. She really is that good!”

    Ruthie Graham, Meybohm Real Estate

  • Prioritized Energy + Growth

    “The Mastermind is a core group of women who have the same growth mindset and who show up in a space of trust and vulnerability where we can be honest with each other and ourselves. It’s not just a conversation, there is work every week to push ourselves, our boundaries, and grow our skills and mindset for our growth journey. We are held accountable for doing the work and I have more focus and clarity across the important things, and I know where to place my energy.”

    Shawn Hackett, Capabilities Lead + CRM at Conagra Brands
