The thing you didn't know existed is here
The WordPress WonderLab — All Access Pass
Personalized help. All the time.
Jump in and out, continue, stay, don't stay — totally your call. Just get help when you need it and stop wasting time. No more procrasti-wishing. 👊
Annual Sale!
Boo - it's over!
Okay, what is this?
A retainer-like experience with membership-y vibes.
Think of it as a DIY club where you get retainer-like support without the hefty price crossed with membership-like access to lots of information, tutorials, the ability to build according to your timeline WITH access to ask your questions or get help to fix your site issues.
Any time.
The secret sauce to success:
It's all about getting the most out of your WordPress site.
Whether it's a theme or a homepage/about page/sales page template you bought somewhere, the only way you're going to be fully satisfied with it is if you learn how to use the template to your advantage.
And that means learning how to use the page builder that goes with it (and if you're not using a page builder, we've got more to talk about!). Because as beautiful as that theme is, it still needs to serve your content and that means your writing, your images, your style of communicating.
It all works together.
And, yes, there really is a plugin for (okay, almost) everything.
If there's something you want to do but have no idea how to do it or where to start or maybe think, "I need a new platform!"...
Hit the brakes!
Just for a moment.
Pop into WonderLab's All Access Pass community group and ask what your options are before you commit to anything new or add another subscription to your list (a little meta, I know).
But if you're serious about making this work, it's time to stop second-guessing and Google-searching late into the night.
Let me do that for you.
Just like I do for my private clients.
And build a functional solution just for you.
A website (especially WordPress) can be a lot of decision-making, hmm-ing and haw-ing, and general nervousness that you're sinking too much money into something that doesn't make you money.
Yet.
I could go on and on... but that's not really me.
Well, actually, yes, when it comes to certain things (like WordPress.... .. . 😅) BUT WonderLab's All Access Pass is about as simple as it gets.
Access to all things WonderLab
Current courses/playlists, the full $5 Library (and any new videos added), and future challenges, workshops or focus weeks coming up.
Access to me. Yes. Me.
It's just little ol' me, my alter-ego Moogle, and I. And occasionally Rachel, WonderLab's resident graphic designer and Canva expert popping in.
Access to flexibility.
Choose between a monthly pass — start, pause and restart whenever you need — and the annual pass for 2 free months and some 1:1 private training.
I will teach you how to plan, design, build & understand your WordPress website.
As many times as you need to learn it.
Let's face it. WordPress can be complicated and it's also changing even if we're not updating. So as many times as you need to ask, "How do I embed my video on my page?", this is the place to do it.
Maybe you already have a virtual assistant, a copywriter a designer or a full-blown redesign with an agency, understanding how your website works and what can be done in WordPress (and all of the integrations it can have) will help you to make better decisions, plans and investment of your time and money.
And feel in full control — even over the tech.
Pick your poison.
Not just about WordPress — it's about all of your different systems and platforms working together to create the smoothest process for you and the best user experience for your people.
If it touches your website, we talk about it.

Michelle's WordPress Learning Space membership has truly been a game-changer for me! Her training videos cover the entire process from the setup phase (choosing the right host, theme builders, and plugins for creating your website) to maintenance and growth phases (troubleshooting, backing up, utilizing SEO, integrating email platforms, etc.).

Michelle is amazing. I have learned more about my website and gotten more done in the past couple of weeks than I have in the past year. I feel as though I have found a true treasure with the WordPress Learning Space.

"I have had the most complicated and weird tech problem and you never give up and try to find ways to make things work all the time even if it means finding totally out of the box ideas [...] you make Wordpress simple! I was so afraid of Wordpress at first but with the right info and training it's not scary anymore!

"I absolutely adore the office hours for the most complex questions for my website and it goes often way more then just basic website stuff as all that we put on the website is related to the business strategy and I love how you can have an overview of the entire business and make recommendations based on that to make the website better and not only apply tech stuff.

Thanks to a jam-packed session with Michelle I have been able to completely revamp my website. It is so much more effective thanks to many great tips and tricks Michelle was able to point out-I took pages of notes just from one session! I highly recommend Michelle to anyone considering her services, she is extremely knowledgeable and a delight to work with.

Hey-o! Maybe you have this question...
Well, you're in luck! Because I built the WP WonderLab for you. We start from the basics of WordPress (I highly recommend starting with the WordPress DIY StartUp Kit) and you get to build piece by piece with plugin tutorial videos, a play space for you to practice what you learn before you add it to your site and our own WonderLab Lounge to ask your questions.
No matter how little or how advanced you are, the WonderLab is the place to play, build and continue learning step by step.
Well, you're in luck! Because I built the WP WonderLab you too!
Nothing makes me happier than being able to talk tech and help you build more advanced systems and it's just so geeky but so true.
So if you're game, I'm GAME!
A returning WordPresser?? Yay!!
I will say - WordPress is a pretty misunderstood creature. Yes, it's bad rep is there for a reason, but honestly, it's because we didn't understand it from the beginning. As technical as it seems to be, if you understand the foundations, it's a lot easier to handle issues, plan ahead and even strategize to use it to its fullest extent and make your website work harder for you.
The WonderLab is here to help you start from the basics and build on it. And trust me, going back to remind yourself of the foundations of WordPress just makes everything easier. And all the available tutorials are there for you when you need to come back to it again and again.
Great question! The videos are currently organized in design or tech spaces. There are also thumbnails as to which page/theme builder the video applies to. If you still can't find what you're looking for you can:
- use the search bar at the top of your student area, accessible from any page,
- ask/request a video when you can't find the one you want or need,
- post in the WonderLab Lounge that comes with your membership and get answers from yours truly, as well as your fellow Geek Squad-ers.
- as a Super Geek Squad-er, come and join office hours! We talk WordPress but we also talk business and strategy of your website because they go hand-in-hand. I'll help you come up with a plan.
- dive into the DIY StartUp Kit course even if you're not a newbie. The videos will give you a refresh but also warm up your brains to start thinking about your website and give you ideas on what you want to tackle first.
I'm here to help you get past that dreaded First Step Hump.
Yes! Any time. Just head to your account area. You can also put your account on hold if you need to take a break and come back when you're ready!
Oh my! Just about everything WordPress and website related!
If you're starting fresh and new, we'll help you choose a domain, choose a host provider, teach you how install WordPress on your host provider and all the security that goes with it!
- We talk plugins - which are the best and how to choose one without fearing it'll break things, how to update them without the anxiety and hold your hand while we figure out what's wrong if a plugin breaks!
- We also talk website strategy and planning, design principles and you'll get feedback with personalized videos as well as troubleshooting from Yours Truly for the really gnarly issues.
- We also talk about SEO and how to get the fundamentals to set up your site for SEO success along with user experience, A/B testing, and more.
- We also talk about starting to sell! Setting up your shop, how to connect to your payment methods (and which ones to choose!), how to collecting taxes, charging in different currencies and delivering your product - print or virtual.
- And if you're really keen, we can talk about *gasp* coding with CSS customizations and PHP so you can use one less plugin. Yep, we do can do it all! And no, you don't need to know CSS or PHP before this. I've got you covered.
The WonderLab is here to equip you with what you need to make your WordPress DIY journey as smooth as possible and make your website something you're truly proud of (and make that moolah, of course!)
I get it — WordPress and your website are big undertakings with big decisions. But I will say, if you're on a new journey, start anywhere! Getting off the ground is 50% of the battle. And while we want to make sure we start off on the right platform, the reality is that you might change platforms in the next year or two while you start to gather the right tools to run your business.
WordPress is a learning curve but it is where, as you grow, many people end up because of it's flexibility and versatility to expand — you can DIY it now then hire a developer for more customization as you grow.
If you're hanging out here because you're curious, then check out the free WP 101 Fundamentals — the course before the course — for more background and foundational explanations. Maybe I can convince you there. 😛
Absolutely. One of the things I usually end up saying to myself when working with clients was, 'I wish they had known ____ sooner!" then their site would be set up properly and have a solid understanding of what there website can do and how to properly maintain it.
Then they can properly plan for their future and strategize accordingly.
I want that for you too.
Your membership to WP WonderLab All Access Pass is where you definitely get more personalized support in the form of videos, reviews, and live office hours. This is the bread and butter of the WonderLab along with exclusive access to the WonderLab Lounge just for us.
In short — yes. I'd love to have you join.
As you're working with clients and have questions, need some direction or find a tutorial on the plugin you're trying to configure, jump in, chat with me in the Community and we'll talk shop! I'd love nothing more than to help you with your web design business.
So yes, please! Come and join!
Annual Sale!
Boo - it's over!
