About Me

Dr. MICHELLE SWANN: STORIES OF LOVE, LAUGHTER & LEGACY

I am Dr. Michelle Swann, an author, educator, and consultant with a passion for capturing stories and empowering others to share their own. With a Ph.D. and years of teaching experience in Canada and Switzerland, I have specialized in the history of education, social theory, childhood studies, and popular culture. My personal journey as a teen mom inspired me to write a series of books for teen mothers and their supporters. My experience of having a mother with MS inspired me to write a guide for teens who have a parent with the disease. I continue to create interactive keepsake books that strengthen family bonds and preserve memories. I write compelling, emotionally rich novels that keep readers turning the page while offering stories that spark reflection, connection, humour and a sense of accurate history. I also create practical, accessible guides designed to make everyday life a little easier. Beyond writing, I lead Focal Point Consultancy, where I offer coaching, seminars, and communication training for businesses and academics. When I’m not working, I enjoy sailing, rowing, and hiking, finding inspiration from the challenges and beauty of everyday life and meaningful human connections.
