Author Information

Michelle Segrest has been a professional journalist for four decades. She is the president of Navigate Content, Inc., a full-service content creation firm, and works hard for her clients even while sailing the world. Michelle is a proud Southern girl from Sweet Home Alabama. She sailed for the first time with a longtime friend in Hamburg, Germany in 2013 and was immediately hooked. Sailing became a part of her soul as this journalist found a passion that would burn deeply within her forever. She still delights in researching and learning the finer details of sailing. In 2018, she embarked on a year-long sailing adventure with her two beagles, Cap'n Jack & Scout. The voyage included an Atlantic Crossing with passages across the Baltic Sea, the North Sea, the English Channel, the Bay of Biscay, around the Atlantic coast of Spain and Portugal, around the western coast of Africa and across the Atlantic to Brazil and then up the South American coast. She chronicles her adventures in her best-selling memoir, Living Life Sideways: A True Story of Heart-Pounding Adventure and Heart-Wrenching Survival.
