Creative direction for your inner world.
Your depth is your asset: we’re going to design with it.
Portfolio of Self is built on a simple truth: beauty regulates us. Visual harmony calms the mind. Order settles the body.
When your eyes feel safe, your nervous system follows.
This isn’t vanity, it’s biology.
Through sensory design, emotional clarity, and intuitive creative play, you’ll build a visual world that feels like recognition, not performance.
This is self-expression as self-regulation.
This is how beauty brings you home.

let’s make it visible.
I’m Michelle, a mom, creative director, and emotional experiential designer.
For over 15 years, I’ve worked in branding and storytelling while uncovering my own outer vision through experiences that reshaped me, motherhood, sobriety, and rediscovering home, in my inner world and in the environments that reflect it.
Now, I help women reconnect with their vision and essence by tapping into what’s true, not through performance or productivity, but through clarity, beauty, and honest creative reflection.
My work lives where visuals meet emotion, guiding others to return to themselves through design rituals, intuitive creative play, and sensory storytelling.
I offer a rare blend of creative self-return through emotional clarity and meaningful strategy. It’s feminine intelligence and emotional design, woven together to help you feel like yourself again because we’re all trying to find our way back: to ourselves, to beauty, to belonging.

You’re not here to hustle your identity, you want to inhabit it
This digital guide was inspired by mothering myself in the middle of nowhere.
The Portfolio of Self began as a love letter to my nervous system, written while mothering myself in the middle of nowhere in rural Nicaragua.
It’s guided creative play designed to reconnect you with your essence through visuals, calm sensory experiences, and memory. Your free Canva template is waiting for you.
