There’s a moment in life that doesn’t always look like a breakdown…
Sometimes, it’s a wake-up call.
In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, Stacey sits down with Michelle Nielsen, founder of CoCreate Collective Canada, for a deeply honest conversation about what it really looks like to lose yourself — and find your way back.
Michelle shares her journey through postpartum depression, health challenges, and the quiet realization that somewhere along the way, she had lost connection with her spark.
What followed wasn’t a dramatic collapse.
It was something far more powerful.
A decision.
To stop living the life she thought she was supposed to want…
and start creating one that actually felt like hers.
Together, they explore:
• The emotional weight of “having a good life” that doesn’t feel aligned
• How postpartum depression and health challenges became a wake-up call
• Why community, vulnerability, and asking for help matter more than ever
• The role of boundaries in reclaiming self-worth
• What it means to live authentically — even when it disrupts everything
• How Michelle is now creating spaces for connection and collaboration through CoCreate Collective
This episode is for anyone who has ever felt like something is missing…
even when everything looks “fine” on the outside.
Because sometimes the most powerful thing you can do…
is choose yourself.
