SPEAKING
permission to hope.
Too often, I talk to women who have lost hope. Relationships are ruined, parenting was a failure, and it feels like the pain of the past has disqualified any joy in the future.
I do not buy it.
I craft my talks and workshops to meet women where they are at — right here, right now — and show them how to gently begin untangling the pain of the past… and dare to hope again for the future.

Never Too Late Embracing the Hard & Holy
From Lioness Women - Rooted in Christ: “In this conversation, we dive into the incredible power of embracing our past to find profound healing and purpose. Michelle and I share how our journey of uncovering our own stories began at a life-changing workshop. We talk about the beauty and the necessity of doing this difficult work in community, and how our deepest wounds can become the source of our greatest impact.”
For Moms Who Feel Like They Messed Up
From Collide: “In this vulnerable and hope-filled episode, we’re joined by writer, speaker, and mentor Michelle Konson, who shares how the pain and mess of our past can show up in our present—especially in parenting. Michelle opens up about her own journey of unraveling, the toll it took on her relationships, and the invitation God extends to all of us: to enter our stories, do the work of healing, and experience redemption—not just for ourselves, but for our children too.”
Embrace Your Story
From Permissions Slips: “‘It’s never too late for redemption.’ You’re invited to treat your story with kindness and curiosity, giving yourself permission to explore how your past experiences shape the ways you show up in the present.
In this vulnerable conversation with my dear friend, Michelle Konson, we explore how learning to embrace the fullness of our stories—even the hard parts—allow us to move forward with greater hope and self-compassion.”
