I help women lead with confidence, tackle workplace challenges, and build careers they love - without sacrificing family time - by sharing strategies I wish I had when I was in their shoes.
Michelle Magnetti is an HR executive turned coach and host of The Authentic Collective who helps working moms lead with confidence, tackle workplace challenges, and build careers they love — without sacrificing family time.
After 20 years in corporate talent acquisition and HR, Michelle knows firsthand the pressure of trying to “do it all.” From navigating demanding executives to raising a family, she lived the burnout, the imposter syndrome, and the constant tug-of-war between career and home.
Now, she shares the strategies she wishes she had back then — practical, actionable tools that help women stop second-guessing themselves, advocate with clarity, and create balance that actually works in real life.
Through courses, coaching, and community, Michelle empowers women to:
*Build confidence and overcome imposter syndrome
*Manage up and influence with impact
*Create sustainable work-life balance
*Design personal brands that align across work and life
Michelle is also the founder of Magneaux, a talent strategy consultancy that helps companies hire better through intentional planning, internal mobility, and positive leadership development. Her corporate expertise and executive lens deeply inform the coaching and content she creates — blending real-world HR knowledge with personalized support.
Your growth is personal to her… because she’s lived this too.

Kristen, TA Manager
When we implemented the Magneaux Model, it took our Talent Acquisition methodology to the next level. We went from being transactional order-takers to becoming valued and strategic partners to hiring managers and the business. We advised hiring managers and provided candidates with a world-class hiring experience. The Magneaux Model is a game changer and shaped the landscape of how we do talent acquisition. I can't say enough about the positive impacts this model has had on our business!
