Hello, and thank you for your interest in knowing more about me:
I was born to help people! I’ve created the love of providing help & advice into a media empire that helps millions around the world!
Through my professional Matchmaking, my personalized Coaching, and … to my nationally-airing TV show, the “Michelle Valentine Show“… my popular online dating book, “How to Find Love Online: Secrets, Tips, and Lists for Getting the Best Response“… over 200 advice columns published in newspapers and magazines… and speaking engagements around the world… I help individuals get through the tough world of dating and maintaining great relationships!
People always ask me,
“How in the world did you become a Matchmaker?!”
As a teenager and lover of the advice columnist Ann Landers, I wrote my first advice column, “Dear Pinky” (Pinky was my high school nickname) for The Belmont News. This was a one-page “newspaper” I created for the block I grew up on. I paid 10 cents per page to make color copies at the local supermarket.
After completing my Bachelors degree in Psychology from Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan, I moved to the land of sunshine… Florida!
I pitched an idea for an advice column to the Orlando Weekly newspaper about a column for the love-lorn. They loved it! “Dear Michelle Valentine” was born, which created a media explosion in Florida, as the advice column attracted new readers and advertisers, and brought in so much money for the newspaper!
While writing my weekly advice column (also published in the Orlando Sentinel, East-West Times, St. Pete Weekly, and Orlando Me Magazine), I began conducting seminars and workshops at local libraries, helping my readers in-person to find love and lasting relationships.
Within a year of writing my advice column for the Orlando Weekly newspaper, I pitched my idea to Time Warner television network – and received a TV deal for my own weekly TV talk show, the “Michelle Valentine Show”. It quickly became very popular and grew to airing in over 1 million households across the state!
I became a “media darling” and numerous other TV & radio news stations (BBC radio, Fox TV, etc.) wanted me on their shows to provide valuable advice to their viewers and listeners! In 2014, the “Michelle Valentine Show” was made available for licensing to TV markets nationwide, and continues to air on TV stations across the United States (check your cable listing for times).
“Michelle Valentine learned to light the spark of passion, not just in herself, but in others as well. Her success in creating a world-class service helped her to a clear understanding of how to help others build powerful relationships of all kinds.” – PBS TV Producer
During all of this, I received a book deal, and my online dating advice book, “How to Find Love Online: Secrets, Tips, and Lists for Getting the Best Response” catapulted my popularity around the online world as an advice expert. As a published Author, I was invited to speak and autograph my books across the United States at various Barnes & Noble and Borders Booksellers (and numerous other venues).
My speaking engagements grew to speaking around the world for cruise lines, and I still travel aboard Royal Caribbean, Princess, and Celebrity cruise lines presenting topics on psychology, sociology, and arts & entertainment.
I eventually launched my own worldwide matchmaking service, providing professional Matchmaking, personal Coaching, as well as a line of books, audio courses, and more. While I have created thousands of relationships as my time as a Professional Matchmaker, I have also been working one-on-one with individuals during my Coaching sessions, helping to create the life they deserve. In addition, I teach people to have a great career by becoming a Certified Matchmaker through Michelle Valentine’s Matchmaker Academy.
I followed my own dating advice and met my husband online a few years ago! In June 2017 we married aboard a cruise ship with 50 of our closest friends and relatives from around the world. We live in Florida in a beautiful ocean-front home, and love watching the dolphins swim by our home and enjoying beautiful sunsets together. I am blissfully happier than I have ever been in my life, and I want to help you get the life you’ve been dreaming of, too!
