Meet Your Guide

Michelle Minnikin

Psychologist. Sovereignty Strategist. Good Girl Deprogrammer.

For over 25 years, I’ve helped people meet their inner complexity with leadership instead of shame. I blend evidence-based psychology with sacred systems to help women become more whole, not more polished. Shadow work isn’t about going dark. It’s about seeing clearly.

Join Our Live Event: Reclaiming the Parts You Hide

This is Immersion 5 of The Summer of Sovereignty, a 7-part series rooted in the 7 Keys to Sovereign Self-Leadership—designed for women ready to stop performing and start leading from inner truth. You can attend one, a few, or the full spiral. But if you’re ready to stop battling yourself, this is the one.

Is This You?

✴︎ You’re tired of hiding parts of yourself to be liked or accepted ✴︎ You feel like an imposter, even when you’re highly capable ✴︎ You self-sabotage just as things are getting good ✴︎ You feel haunted by old patterns of perfectionism, shame, or fear ✴︎ You want to feel whole, but worry what will happen if you stop “managing” your shadow If so, you don’t need to banish any part of you,you need to reclaim her. This Immersion will help you name, witness, and integrate the parts you’ve been taught to hide.

What We’re Exploring…

What the shadow is - and how it shapes your leadership

We’ll explore the psychological and energetic roots of shadow behaviours - and why they’re not flaws, but protectors.

How to relate to your fear, shame, and resistance without collapse

You’ll learn grounded tools for noticing, naming, and befriending your shadow without judgment or bypassing.

Shadow Integration as power retrieval

We’ll map how the parts you reject are often the very ones holding your voice, boundaries, and brilliance.

What People Are Saying

Hear how this work is helping women turn shame into self-trust, reclaim hidden power, and lead from wholeness—not perfection.

Michelle’s presentation resonated profoundly with the way I live my life. I’m often scared to speak up for myself for fear of coming across bossy or rude. I don’t advocate for myself because I don’t want people to think of me as outspoken or challenging. Michelle has given me a different outlook on the way I live my life - both personally and professionally and allowed me to see a different perspective and understand why I am conditioned to behave the way I do. If you resonate with the idea of being a ‘Good Girl’, I highly recommend a session with Michelle to discover the conditioning behind being a woman in our society and recognise the need to change this behaviour in order to thrive unapologetically.

Michelle has made an enormous difference to my self belief and helped me to gain personal clarity regarding what success looks like for me and my next career steps. She is a fantastic coach and mentor, who brings a contagious energy and genuine kindness to her sessions. Michelle will always go above and beyond to ensure that she delivers and is providing you with the best support and advice possible - from the small things such as recommending a good motivational book or reflection technique, to using psychometrics to help you identify your strengths and blind spots, and connecting you with like minded individuals and opportunities. I would highly recommend anyone to reach out to Michelle and to engage with one of her coaching programmes.
