Michelle is the owner of downtown shop The Coffee Ethic. It’s a role she took on suddenly six years ago after the death of her husband, Tom. She says she’s been on a journey since then, to navigate trauma, raise her children and assume the responsibilities of the coffee shop. Michelle says she rediscovered herself in the process and found her own voice and strength in business. In this episode, we talk about grief and finding joy again, and how she’s grown her business by listening to her gut.
