Hi! I'm Dr. Michelle El Khoury—wife, mother of 3, and creator of The S.M.A.R.T. Journey to Parenting®. Through 20+ years of healthcare leadership and three pregnancies during my corporate career, I discovered that navigating life's biggest transitions isn't about "having it all", it's about leading with presence.

My journey inspired me to establish Yogamazia®, a virtual hub for maternal and parenting education that has provided strategic preparation and evidence-based support to over 700 women, children, families, and organizations.

This diary shares the soulful shifts, vulnerable reflections and mindfulness practices to help you feel prepared, confident, and present as both leaders and mothers.
