Love, life & layers

submission form

A huge, warm welcome to my advice column!

I'm here to explore your heartfelt stories, experiences and questions about love, life and all the layers in between. Every month I'll pick a reader's submission to respond to and publish—no experience is too big, too small, or too messy to share. 

Responses are first shared with my mailing list community, and later published on my website so join the Heartful Transformations mailing list here to ensure you don't miss a thing! 

Your voice is valued here. 

While I wish I could respond to every story, I'll only be able to select one submission per month. However, each story shared is deeply appreciated, and I hope the act of writing it out and sharing it with me is a cathartic and healing experience for you.

Love, Michelle.

Submission Guidelines:

  • Anonymity: Your identity (should you choose to disclose it to me) remains confidential. Please avoid including real names or specific details that could reveal others' identities in your submission—I will not be editing names in submissions so please ensure you use pseudonyms. I will not publish your name against your submission. 

  • Content scope: Share your personal experiences or questions related to love, life, personal development, mental health or relationships (any relationships!). Tell me how you feel in the present and how you'd like to feel once you've read your response should it be published.

  • Length: Submissions should be concise, and ideally between 200 to 500 words, to allow for clarity, depth, and a thoughtful response.

  • Respect: Ensure your submission is respectful and free from aggressive language that's harmful to others.

  • Minimum age requirement: Submissions are only accepted from individuals aged 18 and above.
