Welcome to Purposeful Living
A Space Just for You
Parenthood - especially motherhood - is full of love, joy, and challenges. It’s easy to give your all to your family and lose sight of yourself in the process.
That’s why Purposeful Living exists, to offer a space where you feel seen, supported, and valued. Whether you’re seeking guidance, reassurance, or a moment to breathe, you are welcome here.
This isn’t about doing more - it’s about feeling more like yourself again. Because when you take care of yourself - your whole family benefits too.
You don’t have to do this on your own.
You deserve joy. You deserve balance. You deserve to feel like you again.

Hi, I’m Michelle Ellison, founder of Purposeful Living. As a wife of 30 years and a mum of four children, I know how overwhelming family life can be. I’ve felt the exhaustion, the self-doubt, and the constant struggle to find time for myself.
That's why I created Purposeful Living. As a holistic support system, we offer compassionate, practical guidance for parents who feel stretched too thin. Parenting isn’t one-size-fits-all, and my approach focuses on helping parents feel more confident, balanced, and fulfilled - not just as parents, but as whole individuals.
With a BA in Early Childhood Care and Education, a Master’s in Pastoral Theology (focusing on family care), and as a trained Ignatian Spiritual Guide, I blend lived experience with professional knowledge to help parents rediscover their strength and nurture themselves.
I believe that self-care isn’t a luxury - it’s essential to becoming the parent you want to be. When you take care of yourself, you show up with more patience, presence, and love for your children.
Parenting was never meant to be done in isolation. I provide a safe, supportive space where you can pause, reflect, and regain a sense of balance - not just as a parent, but as yourself.
Because when parents thrive, families flourish.
