Michelle R. Conway, MBA, Ph.D.
Professor, Researcher, Speaker, Author, Life-Long Learner
Dr. Michelle Conway is a professor, researcher, speaker, and author who studies what it means to live a fulfilling life. Drawing from positive psychology, life design, and her research on life satisfaction, she helps ambitious people intentionally design fulfilling lives and careers.
As the founder of The Orange Butterfly Effect, Michelle created a community where she and others explore evidence-based ideas, deepen their self-awareness, and intentionally build lives they're excited to wake up for.
Why? Because, selfishly, she wants to live a meaningful and fulfilling life, too.
After years of chasing the next milestone with the mindset of "I'll be happy when..." Michelle realized that fulfillment isn't something we arrive at; it's something we intentionally create along the way.
Today, she dedicates her career to translating research on life satisfaction into practical tools that help people stop waiting for someday and start building satisfying lives now.
