ABOUT ME
Hello there!
I’m Miki!
I’m so glad you’re here! I believe you got here, not by coincidence, somehow our path is crossing because God has a plan for you and me to meet. I’m a Bilingual (Japanese-English) Women’s Empowerment coach, Abuse Recovery Ministry Leader, Master-certified in Neuro-Coaching, certified in Christian coaching, and Splankna Trauma Release Practitioner in training. I help women let go of past hurt, overcome long-standing insecurities, and get back lost confidence so that they feel empowered, capable, and worthy to step into their God-given greatness and the person they are created to be. Unlike conventional therapy or counseling, I use my unique "G.R.A.C.E" methodology, combined with a neuroscience-based technique to reveal what’s programmed at the subconscious level, along with God’s guidance and wisdom.
After graduating from college, I moved from Japan to Southern CA, full of energy, a spirit of adventure, curiosity, and dreams. Life can turn a corner ever so quickly, and I found myself slowly losing my strength, confidence, and even identity during an abusive marriage that finally ended after 13 years.

MY JOURNEY
Have you ever felt like God was punishing you for things you did wrong?
Have you said to yourself, “I deserve this, I’m not lovable anyway” or “How stupid can I be? How it’s going to be the rest of my life!”? in despair?
I felt and said those things to myself, “How stupid am I?” too. I’ve also felt helpless, wondered if I deserved even God’s love, though in my head, I knew God’s love was unconditional, I’ve doubted…so many times. I said, “Where was God when I needed Him?”
Even when I had a good-paying job and financial security, I felt trapped and didn’t think I could make it on my own after I left my previous marriage. After I left, I was fortunate enough to be surrounded by supportive people - my pastor, counselors, and social services manager, in addition to my friends and family. Still, there was a place where no one could get to….my thoughts. Even after many hours of therapy and counseling, I had to continue to work on myself, and invest in myself to be better in the journey of healing.
Fast forward many years. I have taken back my power and regained the strength now through the love God has placed in my heart to begin sharing my story. And help other women who are struggling to know who they are and are ready to take back their power and truly understand and embrace the God-given uniqueness and greatness that lives within each woman!
I’m a mom of 3 boys, one young adult son from my previous marriage, and two teenage sons from my current marriage. Though life throws many curve balls at me, and my husband and I have been through a lot in our current marriage, I truly believe God has led us together after going through a tough divorce.
I can honestly say that God has prepared me through all these struggles all these years to help women who might be struggling and going through similar situations. I believe this is God’s project and mission, and I’m His vessel.
As a certified Master Neuro-coach, I use unique step-by-step brain-based method to reprogram at the subconscious level in my coaching as well as incorporating God’s guidance and wisdom, I’m also in training and on the way to getting certified as a Bible-based Trauma Release Practitioner, which is an amazing protocol that help get to the deep root cause of traumas that are stored in the body and release them by prayer. This is a healing that is God-centered and God-led, you can’t go wrong with this!
If you’re ready to take back your power and start living the life you’ve always wanted, I’d love to be part of your transformation and help you get through whatever you may be facing. We can get through it together.
Much Love and Blessings,
Miki Sturges
