Monthly Workshops
These monthly action-focused 60-minute workshops transform learning into results. Each session combines proven strategies with immediate implementation, so you're not just gathering information—you're creating real change in your business.

- Scaling pathways and challenges

Additional topics will be driven by your group's specific needs.
Every workshop includes hands-on exercises and practical experiments you can apply immediately in your business. This isn't about theory—it's about getting results.

Why do this program with Michel Spruance?
I created ELEVATE because I've heard from many female Bainbridge Island business owners who want the same thing: to grow thriving businesses while flourishing in our personal lives.
This work lights me up because I believe that when we succeed as whole people—in business and in life—our families and communities thrive too.
After teaching middle and high school history, my journey as an entrepreneur started in 2006. Since then, I:
Built and ran Be Luminous Yoga in Seattle for 13 years, managing 25+ contractors and 5+ employees
Led workshops for major companies such as Amazon, Wayfair, and Starbucks
Coached business leaders worldwide
Earned my MEd and ACC coaching certification, as well as many other business and personal development certifications
Co-founded a non-profit - Space Between - helping educators build mindful schools where all children can thrive
While that gives you a flavor of my resume, here's what really matters: creating a space where we truly listen to and support each other. That's the magic that transforms businesses and lives.

Group Makeup & Tuition
My goal is to create a phenomenal group of women who can support one another for years to come, building on the structure we launch with. Research also suggests that for a mastermind to be effective, diversity of thought is important and skills are important to ensure all members receive value. I will be looking to create a group where every member can receive value.
To that end, am also focused on making this experience accessible. Tuition will be on a sliding scale from $445 to $1200 at the top. Generally, your tuition will be at about .75% of your gross revenue - less than 1%.
“I've been coaching for a number of years. Like most coaches, I thrive on learning from others. Recently I had the privilege of spending time with Michel during 1:1 and team coaching sessions.
I've never met someone with the expertise of not only managing the energy, and drilling down to where the opportunity for growth lies with the combination of deep immersive listening.
Michel is an incredible coach, and I don't use that word lightly. If you’re a business leader, who wants to improve your business, work/life blend, your team and/or your stakeholders, having Michel in your corner will give you the lift you need.”
