Michelle Hensley – Rising Again, Wrapped in Purpose
Episode description
In this episode of Women Influencers, I had the pleasure of speaking with Michelle Hensley, the remarkable founder and CEO of Nifty Gift Package Company, the number one mobile gift-wrapping service in the country. Michelle’s journey is one of incredible faith, resilience, and reinvention. From being a young widow and stay-at-home mom to wrapping gifts for the Kardashians, the White House, and leading celebrities, she is a shining example of what’s possible when purpose meets perseverance.
Michelle shared how, after losing her husband to cancer at age 50, she had to completely rebuild her life. What began as a simple idea—wrapping gifts out of her van—turned into a booming business. Along the way, she had to relearn everything from profit margins to team management, but she never lost her faith or drive. Her big break came when she landed a job with Too Faced Cosmetics and soon after, the Kardashians. Today, she oversees a nationwide team and continues to innovate in the luxury gift space.
What inspired me most was Michelle’s passion for lifting other women. She now runs a nonprofit providing microgrants to widows, and a training program that equips women to launch their own mobile businesses under the Nifty brand. “If I can inspire others to believe they can rise again, then I’ve done my job,” she told me. And that she has—beautifully wrapped in strength, purpose, and joy.
"Embrace adversity and manage your expectations." - Michelle Hensley
