Michelle McIvor is an award-winning journalist. Aside from writing for nearly every national magazine in Canada, including Chatelaine, Best Health, Maclean’s, Avenue and Canadian Business, she spent three years as a staff lifestyle columnist with the Calgary Herald (some bylines read as Michelle Magnan, her maiden name). She freelances regularly and often – her next piece is about how Instagram superstar The Birds Papaya (with her more than 2 million followers) de-cluttered her home. Throughout her career, Michelle has been a columnist for websites such as AskMen.com, she’s edited nutrition guidebooks, and she’s ghostwritten two books, the latest of which, Forever Terry, became a #1 national bestseller in 2020. Michelle also launched her own website in March 2019, called Feverish News, to inspire, entertain and celebrate women. Feverish is a platform to share the types of posts she loves to read, herself: everything from wellness tips and recipes to style advice and more. Other tidbits about Michelle: Michelle’s journalism career began in high school, when she cohosted a French kids’ show for Canada’s national public broadcaster. Looking back on that awkward time in her life, she is eternally grateful the series can now only be found on VHS.
