Real Things Living
with Brigitte Cutshall
Untangle the guilt from the growth:
In this episode of Real Things Living, Michelle Bishop dives into the courageous act of choosing—choosing growth, healing, authenticity, and ultimately, herself. She shares how facing adversity became the catalyst for personal evolution and why making intentional choices is the key to lasting transformation. It’s a grounded, honest conversation about resilience, identity, and the power of showing up for yourself.
Top 3 Takeaways:
- Self-Care Is Not Selfish—It’s Essential. Michelle explains how putting herself first—after decades of people-pleasing—unlocked her capacity to truly support others from a place of fullness.
- Healing Begins on the Inside. Her physical transformation (including a 112-pound weight loss and remission from serious illness) was sparked by letting go of emotional baggage and embracing holistic self-care.
- Fear Is the Greatest Block to Empowerment. Michelle encourages listeners to face fear, acknowledge it, and let it go—because the worst-case scenario often leads to the best-case growth.
