“If you want to talk about real wealth, then you look around at the people who were there for you during the good, the bad, and the ugly.”

Michelle went on to describe how thankful she is to have long-term friends she can call on in times of need, before reflecting on how life sometimes leads people to unexpected places.

“When your life throws all these curveballs at you… it’s easy to get caught up in it and dragged away from who you are intrinsically,” she said.

“Remembering that you have all the answers and everything you need inside of you – and that’s what I’ve been remembering.

“It’s back to me! It’s about back to what I need to do to as a human. What I need to do to look after another human, and the important factors of that.

“And not letting other people or other things drag me away from that true, one important thing,” she added.
