I’m Michelle Castle, and yes — I wear a lot of hats. I’m a mortgage lender, educator, coach, author, podcaster, and founder of Living LIT. But underneath every title, my work comes down to one thing: helping people make intentional moves in money, business, and life.

​

For more than 30 years, I’ve guided thousands of families through the home loan process, helping them use real estate to build stability, wealth, and options for their future. As a Texas Real Estate Commission Continuing Education provider, I teach from real experience — hundreds of transactions each year, real challenges, real solutions.

​

I’m also an author you’ll find on Amazon, including contributions to the Rethink Everything series — most recently on building a business that aligns with your values, not just your numbers. That same philosophy lives inside Living LIT, where I help people reconnect with who they are and what they truly want. Through retreats, coaching, classes, and community, I support high-energy, high-responsibility humans who are ready to live with more intention and less overwhelm.

You’ll see these themes woven through everything I create — my courses, events, and podcasts: Unlocking Doors, The Can Be Podcast, and Rise and Be LIT. It’s all designed to give you practical tools, honest stories, and clear next steps.

No matter which hat I’m wearing, the goal is the same: to help you live LIT — intentionally, confidently, and fully aligned with what matters most to you.
