About me

Hey, I’m Michael Hiley 👋🏼

I’m the guy behind Seek & Settle.

I am an artist and creative director living on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia. I built these inner work tools for people like us. For the ones juggling work deadlines and family chaos who still want to tend to their own growth.

The Design of It

My background is in User Experience design. I believe that good design empowers people. It clears the clutter.

I have spent my career building platforms and tools, learning from every challenge along the way. I wanted to build a place for mindful check-ins in a noisy world.

Why I Built This

Seek & Settle is a project I have been working on for a long time.

I spent years studying what makes people genuinely thrive. I wasn’t interested in quick fixes. I wanted to understand embodied cognition and the things that create lasting change. The research is fascinating, sure. But what matters most is how it translates to your Monday morning.

The Invitation

I can’t tell you what your purpose is. That is yours to discover.

But I can provide the personal growth map. I can share the frameworks and insights that help you find your way. And I can promise you this: the journey is worth it.

Your story matters. Your contribution is needed. The world becomes a little better when you show up as who you really are.

I’ve got another little passion project called Lost Geometry which holds a blog and where you can buy some of my stuff. For more of my art and to see what I’m up to, you can find me on Instagram.
