We recently connected with Giorcelia Michel and have shared our conversation below.

Giorcelia, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Let’s jump to the end – what do you want to be remembered for?

My goal is to foster meaningful relationships and promote understanding and respect among people. I believe others will recognize my commitment to fostering connections, spreading love, and assisting those in need.

I aspire to be remembered as someone who advocated for the embrace of love and respect among individuals.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

Aside from being a self published author, I hold the title of being a Life Coach and I also dedicate time to work in the real estate industry. As a Life Coach who focuses on helping individuals find balance in their daily routines and set concrete plans for their short and long term goals, I always compromise to putting myself in my clients situations and see everything from their perspective and then I work around that delivering different plans that can resonate with them positively.

My self published books are aimed to help those in gaslighting relationships, those who have been through circumstances in life where they understand is imposible to start over and those who need guidance as to where to start or what steps to take next in organizing certain aspects of their life.

I think it’s beautiful that all the areas I work in connect with each other. In the Real Estate industry I connect with those who are in a path that may be new and my knowledge and support offers comfort and a peace of mind.

Behind the scenes it looks like I have many ongoing projects, from writing to real estate, but at the end when I see a client who was able to buy their dream home, or the client who completed their six month plan and saw amazing results to someone who leaves me a book review of how life changing my story was.

Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?

Initially, I found it difficult to open up about certain aspects of my life where I had made significant progress. Some of these topics felt deeply personal, while others seemed unlikely to benefit anyone else.

To address that mentally, my initial strategy was to write my first book. It received remarkable acceptance, and I felt immense pride because, despite its imperfections, my story managed to impact people’s lives, which was my goal.

Subsequently, it became simpler for me to post my stories on social media, and eventually my community expanded to the extent that I became a Life Coach to assist others in the areas where I had achieved success in letting go, overcoming, or simply moving on.

We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.

After graduating college I found my dream job at the Marriott Hotels and I was in a long distance relationship with someone. My dad didn’t approve this relationship so he gave me an ultimatum on leaving my partner or moving out the house. I decided to move out, the bad part was I had no where to go. I ended up living in my car for about a month. It was cold in New York, but at that time in my life I thought it was smarter to follow my heart of changing my life around for this one person.

At first, I used to see him every month. The cost of flying back and forth began to strain my finances, and it didn’t seem like it was going to be successful, so I chose to leave my dream job and relocate abroad with him.

When I moved I was the sole provider. I moved him out of his parents house, bought him a car and furnished our apartment. It was a beautiful fairytale at the beginning until one day he didn’t come back home from some errands and when he finally made it the next day and I asked “where have you been?” He immediately assaulted me. From that point on it became “normal” for him to abuse me verbally, physically and in all the ways possible. I lived in this situation for about two years and one day I had to leave during the night because he nearly killed me with a hammer.

After leaving it was still hard because “I loved him.” Mentally I was blaming myself and thought many times I was the problem. I didn’t see nothing wrong behind his abusive behavior. Everyone around me to use say how an amazing person I was and that I deserved more. One night crying and reminiscing on all I had already gone through as a child and how I still manage to become a college graduate I promised myself I would get out. It was very rocky at first, but moving to a different city where he didn’t know where I was and starting a life from zero with nothing I made it happen.
