Do business on your terms as a neurodivergent entrepreneur, so you can thrive in work, life, and beyond.

6-month, 1:1 mentorship program for ambitious, Highly Sensitive Entrepreneurs ready to align with your business in the way that works for you.

You want to do the soul-aligned work that feels exciting and meaningful, every day, in a way that allows you to live a peaceful, calm life

As a Highly Sensitive Entrepreneur, you want the time-freedom to be able to do the work that you love on your schedule and your own terms. To live in harmony with the cycles of nature and the rhythm of your body. With plenty of time and space on your calendar to be able to reflect and nurture your highly sensitive soul. 

And the flexibility to do the things you love on short notice, like an impromptu bath and a book in the middle of the afternoon, a weekend getaway in the woods, or a luxurious holiday retreat. Or the time and space to yourself to do absolutely nothing, guilt-free.

You want to have plenty of energy left over after work to pursue your personal interests. Like going to an art class, spending quality time with your sweetheart, or connecting to a community that’s conscious and sensitive, just like you.

You want the financial freedom to feel not only secure, but abundantly fulfilled. Knowing your retirement is more than covered, and you can enjoy the hobbies, vacations, and splurges that nourish your soul. And maybe even retire your spouse (if they want to!)

You want to exclusively serve a clientele that feels soulfully aligned; where they get you and you get them. And you’re excited to jump out of bed to work with them, because you enjoy it so much it doesn’t feel like work.

And you want to make a deep, meaningful impact on the world with your work. In a way that supports the greater good of humanity and helps others achieve their fullest potential, while you are leading from your own.

You want to leave a lasting legacy. Something meaningful, impactful, unforgettable, and bigger than you. For yourself, your lineage, and the benefit of humanity.

Because making money for the sake of a paycheque isn’t enough if you’re not connected to the deep soul work that truly lights you up, every single day.

And you feel like you can’t NOT listen to this inner nudge. It feels like a passionate fire in your belly you just can’t ignore.

The work you do that used to feel helpful and exciting no longer sparks joy.

You feel like you ‘should’ be excited about your life.

You have a good income, a great family, a wonderful home, and anything you could ever want.

Part of you feels like there’s technically nothing to complain about, so can what you have be good enough? You find yourself asking: “Do I really deserve to have it better?”.

You feel like maybe this is a champagne problem you’re fabricating.

But there’s another part of you that knows that you can’t continue on doing things the way you are for another 20 years.

You've done deep inner healing...

Since you’ve done the inner work to heal, grow, and evolve, it’s become clear to you that your work is no longer aligned with your soul purpose as closely as you know you would like.

When you first started your business, it aligned perfectly with a past, lesser-healed version of yourself, and those parts of you who were still operating from survival patterns. 

You were always available. People needed you, which made you feel valuable and important. 

You hid who you really were and performed in the ways you thought other people needed you to, in order to ‘fit in’ and not rock the boat.

You put a mask over your sensitive, spiritual, and ‘witchy’ parts, out of fear of scaring people away.

But you ended up working all the time and coming home tired. And losing your sense of who you are and what you really want.

You want to disconnect from hustle culture and work at your own personal pace, while still being financially rewarded–in similar and even bigger ways.

You want to be authentic and true to who you are as a Highly Sensitive Person, and stop pretending to be someone you’re not.

Instead of draining your energy trying to fit in, you’re ready to own your sensitive and intuitive gifts and leverage them as your unique edge in your work and stand out, unapologetically.

You want to be doing work that connects with your sense of inner purpose.

You want to work exclusively with like-minded clientele who are at a similar level of consciousness as you. Who share the same interest in deep conversation, inner healing, and personal evolution. And who are continually motivated to move forward on the path of inner growth, like you.

You know you’re meant to move people on a deeper, more transformative level. Making a bigger impact on their lives. That’s where you really know you want to be able to help. And you desire to leave a lasting legacy while doing it.

But you’re not fully sure what that might look like. Do you have to burn it all down, make micro shifts, or something else? Which direction feels most aligned as your next step? It doesn’t feel fully clear.

You have so many ideas swirling in your passion-filled mind, that you’re not sure where to start or how to tease out the next viable action step to make your deepest soul desires come to life.

You know you already have so many skills and you know you’re really good at what you do. But you question whether making shifts to your work means you have to go and get more training and certifications, or can your current level of expertise be enough? 

And you wonder whether you’ll make as much money if you operate your business on your terms. Will you bring in clients? Will it be viable? Will people ‘get’ it?

But you know you don’t want to be in a place 20 years from now, looking back, saying “I should have done that”

"Do it":

Working with Michelle has totally transformed my life. I saw things with incredible clarity and finally had the courage to face it.

Michelle’s kindness, compassion, and ability to hold the space for me to see what I needed to see was the best thing about working with her. I can’t thank her enough for all she does.

My life has never been better, I have so much energy, passion, and hope to give the world with my work.

If I were speaking to someone who was considering working with Michelle, I’d tell them “do it”!

-Tracey McBeath, The Health & Healing Coach

Hello, lovely soul

Hi! I’m Michelle Dowker. Happy partner to an avid game hunter & fisherman. Supportive stepmom to two young adults following their soul dreams of becoming an architect and a veterinarian. Pet parent to a busy young Alaskan Husky. Aspiring homesteader. Lover of recipes. Knitter. Science nerd. Buddhist.

I’ve made big changes in my business. I pivoted away from a relentlessly exhausting back-to-back patient schedule as a naturopathic doctor to launching my own coaching business helping clients to heal endometriosis and autoimmune disorders through nutrition and emotional healing.

Then, I completely transformed the way I work with clients, once again, to focus on the deeply spiritual and intuitive mentoring work that I’m most passionate about now.

I’ve been through many different iterations and pivots, and I finally created my dream business doing the work that lights up my soul every day.

Now, I help ambitious, sensitive entrepreneurs, like you, to embrace your unique gifts and align your business with your deepest soul desires.

So you can create deeply satisfying fulfillment, impactful work, and exponential growth, doing business on YOUR terms—which is going to look different from how everyone else is doing it.

In order to create a business that feels like home, freedom, and a total self expression of the real me, I had to go from hiding, masking, and doubting my sensitive and psychic gifts.

I had to stop worrying about what my clients would say or do if I told them I could see visions that were messages for them. I had to move past the fear that I would make people uncomfortable, and maybe even lose business. I had to finally choose to trust and own these intuitive gifts in my work.

I decided to create offers to attract the clientele who are open to my particular approach and abilities. This has led to facilitating even bigger and more incredible results for the clients I see, while enjoying every minute of it.

I could never imagine how much joy, freedom, and true fulfillment I could have in my work. I’m so grateful I followed the call of my soul and make different choices in my business.

I went from grueling 12-hour days seeing back-to-back patients, 6 days out of the week, to unapologetically saying ‘no’ to the types of work that were draining me, the types of clients who weren’t receptive to the way I wanted to work, and the ways of marketing that would suck the life out of me and leave me depleted.

I took radical responsibility for finding what’s right for me. I finally found the way to do business and serve clients that energize me instead of drain me. And honed in on the niche, focus, and clientele that lights up my soul, every single day.

I closed the gaps in my business that were impacting my joy and my energy. I stopped charging by the hour and started selling high-ticket transformational packages. I stopped working with just anyone and beginner-level clientele, and honed in on exactly who is the most aligned client for my particular methodology and approach.

I’ve transformed my schedule, to create the space I need to recharge my energy, and the flexibility that allows for spontaneous afternoons off to do as I please, whether that’s a long jaunt in the woods with my Husky, a bath and a book on a cold rainy day, or an impromptu hot date with my sweetheart when he has a day off.

Where I used to be exhausted and feeling unfulfilled in my business, now, I’m exhilarated, filled with passion and purpose, and deeply excited for tomorrow.

Now, I get to go really deep and have enriching conversations with total dream clients. And create bigger transformations in the lives of others than I was ever able to do before I started fully using and owning my intuitive gifts in this way.

As a highly sensitive entrepreneur, I now experience more joy, time freedom, and financial fulfillment than ever, while feeling deeply connected to my sense of inner purpose. And all of this happened because I decided to do business on my own terms.

And I'm here to help you do the same, with more ease, clarity, speed, and efficiency than it took me.

"I'm doing more in less time & truly enjoying it"

Michelle is gifted at coming up with guidance that makes you have transformational perspective shifts. She digs deep and puts puzzle pieces together to bridge important gaps. And provides effective insights and tools to align myself to my fullest potential. These moments are like turning on the light in your mind, which changes everything. Like she says, once you see it, you can’t un-see it.

I’ve gained so much perspective to see myself and my work more fully. Now, I have much healthier boundaries with my work, and I’m doing what I do because I enjoy it, not because I’m seeking any sort of approval, recognition, or validation from other people. Now, I feel so much more balanced and energized.

My capacity has increased significantly. I’m three times more productive, but I’m working less hours in a day. Because I’m more efficient and focused, my nervous system is well supported, and I feel more comfortable delegating where I want and need to.

Now, I’m feeling amazing, both physically and emotionally. I have so much more energy and passion. I feel happy and free. I see the potential of what’s to come and I see that this journey to my maximum potential is exciting and infinite. If you do the work, it pays off exponentially. It’s worth every penny.

— Malena

Imagine...

Waking up in the morning feeling so excited to dive into your day and connect with your clients through deep, soul-fulfilling conversations.

You feel like your people get you and you get them. And you know you’re moving them on a deep, impactful level. It feels expansive, fun, and truly aligned.

Living life and doing business on your own terms, doing what makes you feel energized, happy, and free to express yourself the way you truly want, quirks and all. 

With a flexible schedule that allows you to live your life the way you want, instead of just working to live.

Having the time you desire to do the things you enjoy outside of work, whether that be connecting with a community of like-minded souls at your favorite poetry reading, art class or knitting circle, taking time for relaxing baths and a book in the middle of the afternoon, or do some gardening, cooking, hiking, or anything else that you truly love to do.

Or the space to just do absolutely nothing, guilt-free, and enjoy the peace and tranquility.

Truly trusting yourself, your intuition, and all of your sensitive gifts, and confidently showcasing them as your superpowers in the work that you do; to facilitate ultimate transformational results for the clientele you lead.

And knowing that the work you’re doing aligns with your deepest soul mission. Fulfilling a larger purpose. And contributing a deep level of impact to the world around you, for the greater good.

Feeling centered, peaceful, present, and unwavering; no matter how other people around you react, or what storm of life comes passing through. Feeling confident you can calmly manage whatever crisis or fire might pop up, without feeling reactive or triggered.

And if fear and doubt does creep up, like worry about whether you’ll find those soul-aligned clients, or whether you’ll be able to make the money you want from this new direction, you have the support of a thought-partner walking with you to bring you back into your power.

Looking back, you feel so grateful you got off that hamster wheel of exhaustion. And left behind operating out of survival and trauma patterns, constantly saying ‘yes’ to other people just to feel important and valued. Because now you see the value within yourself for being authentically you.

You treat yourself with so much more gentle, kind, compassion. You’re truly in love with yourself and feel comfortable making yourself a priority, knowing it benefits not only you, but everyone around you.

The overthinking mind-gremlins no longer take front and center stage in your head. And if someone doesn’t like you or the boundaries you set, you no longer resort to over-explaining or backing down. You know where your line in the sand is, and you feel confident to maintain standards in your life, relationships, and business that work for you, full stop.

When you look at where you are now, doing business your way, you breathe a sigh of satisfaction and say to yourself “this is life”.

Do business on your terms as a neurodivergent entrepreneur, so you can thrive in work, life,and beyond

Make choices that bring you true joy in your work by actually getting clear on who you are, what you want, and what your deepest soul purpose is. So you know what to say ‘yes’ to and what to say ‘no’ to, and feel confident to do so, unapologetically.

Do business on your terms, in a way that actually makes you feel good. By identifying and implementing the boundaries you need and the schedule makeover you want, so that you have energy left at the end of the day.

Create a rock solid relationship with your intuition and all of your unique sensitive gifts, and leverage them as your greatest skill set in your business. So you can facilitate even more phenomenal results for your clients, and for yourself.

Feel aligned, complete, calm, and centered, so you feel confident and unshakeable no matter what anyone around you is doing or saying.

Give yourself the opportunity to see what’s really possible when you say YES to that inner nudge. The one you know is leading you to a meaningful legacy of impact and levels of self-fulfillment you never even knew existed.

There’s a reason you are the way that you are.

It’s time for you to be making your money in the aligned ways that will lead you to thrive in business as a sensitive entrepreneur, by doing business on YOUR terms.

"Working with Michelle is like a balm for the soul you didn’t even know you needed."

Almost every appointment had real mind-blowing revelations that really helped shift and change my perspective, how I see myself, and heal my relationship with myself first and foremost. She has such a way of connecting all of the dots in a way that is completely personalized, easy to understand, and the really makes sense. She’s really gifted at hearing what is being said and what that means in terms of my needs.

Michelle’s energy and calming presence makes this work not feel like work, but a gentle transformation into coming back to yourself. She is a gentle guide, a calming force through these rocky waters. This has been an eye opening, life-changing experience, I gained more than I ever thought I needed working with Michelle. She is gifted beyond measure in her wisdom, compassion, and insight. The personal change she facilitates is nothing short of miraculous.

Working with Michelle will be the most important thing you can do for yourself and one of the most challenging in equal measure. If you truly want to learn how to be your best self physically, mentally, and emotionally, Michelle will help you find the way to your truth and your answers.

The benefit of reconnecting to your true self and owning who you are from the inside out feels like a cloud has dissipated from your conscious and you become truly free to live your best life.”

Who this is for

You’re a sensitive, empathic, and intuitive entrepreneur with a deep calling to serve others with your skills and gifts. 

You’re not a fan of smalltalk, but prefer deep conversations, and want more of those types of connections in the work that you do.

You want to feel more comfortable saying ‘no’, and communicating exactly what you need.

You want to fall in love with your business all over again, this time doing things from a place of thriving, instead of operating from survival behaviors, like you had in the past.

You want to feel successful in your work, not just because it makes good money, but because you’re doing something that feels aligned, enjoyable, and valuable – contributing to something big, meaningful, and impactful. You want to leave a legacy.

You want to get crystal clear on who you are now, and what you truly want, instead of following what you had thought you ‘should’ out of obligation or expectation. 

You want to cut through the noise of all the things going on in your life and business, and clarify what it is you really want to provide that feels most aligned with your soul. And establish exactly how to make the next step.

You no longer want to pretend to be someone you’re not in order to fit in, or be like other entrepreneurs. You know you’re here to do things differently, and you want guidance, accountability, and a strategic action plan, built and personalized to you, in order to achieve it.

You want a mentor who’s also a sensitive soul who’s gone through this journey, understands your unique challenges, and can lead from experience.

Someone who can point you in the right direction and show you how to make a transition like this, and make it faster and easier than if you try to figure it out on your own.

The work I did with Michelle was life changing for me. I’m so grateful that I connected with her. I give 5/5 stars.

My particular framework contains a blend of many different approaches and modalities I’ve learned and intuited over the years, from my naturopathic days all the way to the plethora of additional certifications I’ve received since.

Here’s a list of some of the different modalities and styles I use. I do not rely on one tool or modality, but rather a blend, which is tailored to your specific goals and desires:

  • Intuitive reading and psychic clairvoyance
  • Nervous system support
  • Social Unconditioning

  • Individuation
  • Compassionate inquiry
  • Subconscious rewiring hypnotherapy and breathwork

  • Astrology and Human Design
  • And many more

If you identify as an ambitious Highly Sensitive Person, neurodivergent, empath, or INFJ, you might still be a fit for this program. Especially if you want to align your life more fully to your inner sense of purpose, regardless if you’re an entrepreneur.

You can go ahead and fill out the application, indicating you’re not an entrepreneur, but that you resonate with my approach. Alternatively, you can send me a message, either by email, michelle@michelledowker.com, or through Instagram DM @michelledowker_wellbalance and we’ll have a friendly, no-pressure chat to determine if my approach feels aligned for you and your goals.

The positive changes I’ve experienced have been honestly life-changing

“Michelle helped me more deeply understand and accept my sensory and emotional needs as a person with autism. And how to set healthier boundaries and prioritize my own needs and desires. I no longer beat myself up if there’s something I can’t do. I accept this part of myself rather than hating or hiding from it.

Now, I feel amazing! I feel healthy for the first time in my life. And I’ve been promoted at work and now I manage my own department, which I never thought I could do before. Now, I love what I do.

There’s nothing I can think of that would make this program better. It’s so well rounded. Michelle made me feel completely safe and understood. She has a very warm and comforting presence and I could tell she genuinely cared. She put so much effort into our sessions and each one felt incredibly productive.”

What's my story?

In those early years of my career journey, I used to think being a sensitive person was a trait I needed to change, hide, or fix. I wanted to feel ‘good enough’ in other people’s eyes, so I resorted to over-working and people-pleasing in order to gain approval and feel valuable.

I had a hard time saying ‘no’ and I would overcommit, which left me feeling tired and drained.

I had a packed schedule that left little to no time to do what I actually wanted, leaving me feeling frustrated, irritable, and resentful.

My sense of identity was slowly getting buried under all the commitments and demands I had taken on. And I was feeling pulled off centre and overwhelmed by other people's moods, reactions, and energy.

As I continued in my business, I realized I enjoyed deep, transformational conversations the most. And I loved working with patients who valued radical self-responsibility, personal growth, and inner evolution.

But not every patient was ready or willing to go there. It made them uncomfortable, and at times, offended. Or, in less severe circumstances, they’d tell me I’m ‘weird’, quirky, or ‘too much’.

I was so afraid of upsetting and losing patients, that I tried to hide these parts of myself. I sacrificed my identity and priorities in order not to rock the boat. I said yes to opportunities I really wanted to say ‘no’ to and bent to their demands and desires, even if they went against my own.

My back-to-back patient schedule felt so overwhelming, that I was constantly exhausted and struggled with endometriosis flare-ups. I used my evenings and weekends to try to recover, putting my hobbies on the back burner.

And repeating the basics about diet and lifestyle over and over again to people who had never before explored making any changes in their lives, although important, was starting to feel mundane and uninspiring.

Major change happened...

Then, my mom passed away, and it felt like my whole life had been turned upside down. My health took a turn for the worst, and I was left bed-bound, for months. This was the start of a complete transformation for myself. I had no choice but to look within and do the deeper levels of inner healing I hadn’t yet looked at.

I began to take training programs to become a spiritual coach, where I led myself through deep shadow integration work, inner child healing, and learned many more modalities to add to my toolbox, like breathwork, hypnotherapy, Human Design, Astrology, and so much more.

This was the prep work for what came next. I met with a medium, who connected me to my mother’s spirit. What unfolded was life-changing. The healing I did through connection with my mother’s spirit became the catalyst to a whole new level of access to my intuition and psychic gifts.

I realized that I could see things, in black and white, in the lower right hand corner of my periphery. I didn’t trust myself or these visions at first, but once I did, and I began to share what I was receiving, everyone’s minds were blown.

I started to communicate what I saw to my clients, even if it made absolutely no sense to me. They would instantly have lightbulb moments that led to huge breakthroughs I’d never seen before when I was working as a clinician.

So many have told me things like “that’s exactly what I needed to hear right now”, and “you just solved the problem I’ve been trying to figure out for years, in five minutes”.

These breakthroughs gave them crystal clarity on who they are and what they actually want. And created the inner shifts within to inspire them to follow the inner call of their soul, unapologetically. No matter what other people are saying or doing.

At first, I kept talking myself out of using my gifts. I was using them secretly with my clients, but I wasn’t communicating these gifts publicly or including them in my public facing offers.

I was afraid my audience wouldn’t understand. I worried that they would be so turned off by my spiritual, psychic, and intuitive side that they would all leave in a mass exodus, that my business and livelihood would crash and burn.

But it became increasingly obvious what my soul wanted: to bring my sensitive, intuitive, and psychic gifts front and center in the work that I do.

Some of my clients absolutely loved it. And some peaced out.

At first, I was sad I lost clientele, but reminded myself that it doesn’t serve any of us for them to stick around if they’re not on board with who I am and my approach. And hiding these parts of myself for their sake keeps me from creating the meaningful impact I know I'm here to make, and from working at my fullest potential.

I knew I was being called to change.

I hired mentors to help me shift my direction and really get focused on the types of clients that I was feeling a deep soul calling to serve with my intuitive gifts.

I was seeing a trend that once I helped people come out the other side after doing the deep inner healing work that improved their lives and their health, many of my clients recognized that their careers and businesses were no longer aligned with their newly evolved self.

I discovered that it lit me up the most to guide them to continue the work to better align their business to their deepest sense of soul purpose, and craft their work in a way that aligns most with who they truly are.

In order to lead by example, I knew I had to make my own shifts to do the work that felt the most purposeful and fulfilling for me. Because that’s how I can make the most meaningful impact for humanity in the way that I can.

I shifted my niche, making my intuitive and spiritual work part of the core curriculum of what I do. I changed my logo, upgraded my website, and announced to the world that “this is who I am”.

Once I truly understood what I wanted, owned my sensitive gifts, and started doing business my way, so much transformed.

I stopped questioning myself, worrying that I’m an impostor, and became increasingly more confident in the work that I do and the results that I facilitate for my clients.

Now, I lead from a place of inner power, owning my sensitive gifts and putting them front and center in the work that I do.

As I learned more about my sensitive gifts, I began to understand that I not only have strong intuitive and psychic abilities, but also sensitive gifts and skills like:
  • Keen and accurate pattern recognition
  • Picking up on subtleties and nuances most people can't
  • A Sherlock Holmes level ability to sleuth out puzzle pieces and put them together
  • Innovative out-of-the-box problem solving
  • Ability to hold safe, healing space that helps facilitate profound transformation.
Using and harnessing my sensitive gifts in my work helps me guide my clients to deeper, more impactful and transformational results than just relying on my professional skills alone.

Instead of seeking more degrees and certifications, I see now that my assets that make me shine outside of my professional skills I already have are the innate sensitive gifts that I've always had within me. I just needed to learn how to leverage them.

I’ve unapologetically established boundaries and standards in my business that work for me and the way my nervous system operates. My schedule is on my terms now. With plenty of space for me to have the alone time that recharges my energy.

And I no longer take responsibility for other people’s reactions or emotions. Or allow their reactions and moods to overwhelm me and derail me for days, like they used to.

I have the schedule flexibility to go on impromptu dates with my husband, experiment in the kitchen with wild and foraged foods we hunt and gather from our homestead, escape to off-grid retreats at our cabin in the forest, and enjoy long jaunts in the woods with my Husky whenever my heart desires.

In those moments when I do have a health flare-up, I know I can take the time off to give myself what I need, so I bounce back in a matter of days, instead of weeks, months, or even years, like I had experienced in the past.

I’ve determined who my soul clients are that align best with my particular approach and enjoy the same level of depth and personal evolution as I do.

And I’ve established the financial freedom to only take on clients that are energizing to work with and to never work another exhausting and overwhelming 12-hour client day, ever again.

My Business on My Terms

Because I’ve set the standard to work only with clients who are fully aligned, we both feel energized, lit up, and passionate whenever we connect.

The results my clients achieve from the work we do is more phenomenal than anything I’d ever witnessed as a clinical naturopathic doctor before I made these changes.

And when we all get together on group calls, everyone loves the level of connection we create with like-minded souls. It feels validating, supportive, and empowering for everyone.

I see the deep levels of healing and transformation my clients experience.

As a highly sensitive entrepreneur, I now experience more joy, time freedom, and financial fulfillment than ever. While doing the work that feels deeply purposeful and meaningful.

Now, I do the exact work I would have appreciated someone guiding me through when I was working through business pivots and searching for deeper alignment. While my own mentors have been an amazing source of guidance, none have completely understood the nuances of pivoting and aligning a business as a neurodivergent, sensitive entrepreneur.

I could never imagine how much joy, freedom, and true fulfillment I could have in my work. I’m so grateful I followed the call of my soul and made different choices in my business.

All of this happened because I decided to do business on my own terms.

I used to struggle with issues related to my highly sensitive and deep nature and accepting myself as a person. My people pleasing tendencies were having negative impacts on my life, as well as my fear of what other people thought, and how people might react if I expressed who I truly was. It impacted my work as well as relationships.

Now, I reclaimed my personal power. I have experienced more profound peace and self-acceptance than ever before in my life. It’s night and day to how I was operating before.

This is truly deep transformative work that heals from the inside out. To anyone thinking about working with Michelle I would say that if Michelle’s work resonates with you on any level at all, do yourself a favor and reach out and begin the process.

I was stuck in a hamster wheel of people-pleasing to show I was valuable and worthy. I was struggling to reconnect with myself and repeating patterns of shaming and blaming myself for things that were not mine to own.

I tried all the modalities, therapists, doctors and remedies to try to ‘fix’ or change myself. The bottom line was I could not keep going or working this way. I stumbled across Michelle and instantly felt seen.

This work is perfect for the highly sensitives who feel lost or like they don’t belong, and they find themselves repeating life patterns and behaviors and don’t know how to stop the cycle. And most importantly, for those who want to reconnect with the stranger they once knew as themselves. This work is challenging, but it is the most rewarding and important work you will ever do.

When you unapologetically embrace your true self and pursue what truly ignites your passion, you not only make a meaningful impact on others but also find financial success that aligns with your fulfillment. That's the journey to becoming Aligned & Fulfilled.

Do business on your terms as a neurodivergent entrepreneur, so you can thrive in work, life, and beyond

Michelle Dowker

When you own all of who you are, unapologetically, and give yourself permission follow the call of your soul and what truly lights you up, even if it doesn’t make sense to the people around you, you make a deeper, more meaningful impact in the world with your work, in everyone’s lives that you touch. With fulfilling financial success to match. This is how you become Aligned & Fulfilled.

 “The results I’ve experienced are amazing. I am more myself than I have ever been. The moment when you feel yourself coming home to yourself is life-changing. I am more aware of who I am, and am more calm and connected with myself. I feel free from the shackles society had put on me, and that I had put on myself. I see things very differently now, I don’t react to people or situations the way I used to.

Michelle is gifted at connecting with you, and she picks up on things that you would never see. That helps me grow and helps me dig deeper into myself and my healing. She really has a way of understanding you, and is able to tap into what you need and what will help. Her revelations about me were spot on. It’s like she has a 6th sense. She’s calm and funny and down to earth and very easy to work with and easy to talk about everything.

I’d suggest to anyone considering this work to do it! Don’t hesitate. Everyone can benefit from working with her, even if you think you are good, the layers that unfold are insightful. Those who would benefit the most are those who are highly sensitive, empaths, especially those who struggle with autoimmune, and anyone with trauma.

This work can be uncomfortable at times, but once you get through that it’s life-changing. You will never be the same person, you look at the world with a new set of eyes. It’s almost like you’re reborn, but you’re really just finally learning about the real you, and understanding the authentic you. You become free!”

"Unshackled"

 “Before working with Michelle, I was struggling to reconnect with myself and repeating patterns of shaming and blaming myself for things that were not mine to own.

Because of this work, there was a shift in my outlook, my soul felt lighter and I am treating myself with more compassion. Because I am more compassionate with myself, I feel like I have more patience with my family members.

I don’t think practically, there was anything that would make this offering better, I really enjoyed working with Michelle and doing the work to be free of my familiar patterns as well as having what I felt like unfettered access to her support.

Michelle’s accessibility was wonderful. She truly appreciated each milestone and was able to push me to dig deeper. At the time, it can feel daunting to do the inner excavation, but each time I did, I gained new insight and she celebrated with me.

It is deep, hard, soul-searching work, but so incredibly valuable and life-altering.

If you’re stuck on the hamster wheel of repeating life patterns and behaviours and you don’t know how to get off the wheel, Michelle is for you.

Jeanette

The positive changes I’ve experienced by doing this work with Michelle have been honestly life-changing. 

Michelle made me feel completely safe and understood. She has a very warm and comforting presence and I could tell she genuinely cared. She put so much effort into our sessions and each one felt incredibly productive.

Now, I feel amazing! I feel healthy for the first time in my life. Finally, after years of battling health issues and getting nowhere, I have answers and a way forward. I’ve also been promoted at work and now I manage my own department, which I never thought I could do before” 

Hannah

“After working with Michelle everything about me changed. She guided me towards a way of thinking that relieved emotional burdens that I have been carrying for years. Now I feel lighter and energetic.

I enjoyed the depth of Michelle’s knowledge, she was always prepared and always listened without judging. She provided tools that allow me to heal without requiring her presence all the time, that means healing can continue long after a person has done the program.

I want others to know that this program is life changing.

Louisa

My life has changed completely, and all for the better. Nearly all my symptoms have disappeared, but most importantly, I have changed on an emotional level. I have made huge strides professionally and personally since starting my work with Michelle.

I now feel as though I am who I was always intended to be, the best version of me. Someone who is in control and more at peace than I have felt in years. Michelle helped me heal from the inside out. 

This program is the kindest thing I have done for myself”

Amanda

 “After working with Michelle I feel more grounded, mindful, better able to cope with stress and more at peace with my life, and have a heart full of joy

I feel like I connected with Michelle more than any other practitioner that I have ever worked with. She’s gifted at connecting and seeing the bigger picture but breaking it down into manageable pieces, and knowing exactly what I needed at any given session. 

Working with Michelle has been one of the best investments I have made. I can’t thank her enough for all the positive impacts working with her has had on my life”

Krissy S

 “I don’t know what would have made this program better, it was better than I expected. I didn’t think it was possible to make that much progress in such a short time.

After working together, I feel more at peace with myself. I feel safer, more in control, an internal glow, happiness and confidence. I learned to trust myself, believe myself, actually love and respect myself and I’ve found faith in the world again. I no longer feel like I’m fighting my way through life. I don’t chase outcomes, I let them come to me. And it’s liberating.

I’m very sensitive and I felt openness and acceptance at every turn and like she genuinely cared. She helped me feel seen, heard, and safe.”

Natale

“Michelle is such a good listener and gentle, compassionate person. I found that I was able to talk with her about any issue in my life, and she was able to connect the dots for me in a way that was kind, non-judgemental, and encouraging. She is deeply knowledgeable and experienced, and provides extensive one-on-one attention that is very hard to come by from other practitioners

She helped me get to the source of my issues instead of just treating the symptoms. Over time, I felt better, stronger, happier. I’ve been able to move beyond stress management and into cultivating joy and fulfillment in my life. It’s been an incredible journey and very much worth the financial investment.”

Bess

I can’t think of anything that could improve this amazing program. The best part of working with Michelle was her generous and welcoming therapeutic style. I always felt very seen and valued.

My physical and emotional healing would not have happened without her kind and knowledgeable intervention. I am very thankful.”

Debbie

“I loved her kind yet professional approach, and the combination of very practical advice combined with gentle questioning of my own perception of situations and how to change it.

Michelle is honest and straightforward, and has a genuine interest and motivation to help you move forward. 5/5 stars.” 

Kate

 “If I hadn’t worked with Michelle, I’d still be feeling ashamed of myself. Now, I feel so much more confident about my place in the world. My biggest win was about seeing my past in a new light, and forgiving myself for events that had transpired. I came to realize if you change your belief, you change your life.

I liked that Michelle helped me see things from a different perspective. Once she got to know me, my history and issues, she was able to point me in the direction I needed in order to resolve conflict for myself. Michelle’s really gifted at helping me see a bigger picture, and that helps me get out of my own rut.

It’s an investment in yourself that will pay you back many dividends over years to come. But the price you pay is not just money, you need to be willing to put your own time in to use Michelle’s guidance to help yourself. If you’re open minded and ready to look beyond diets and pills, then you will benefit from this work.

I’m so happy I decided to work with Michelle. I have grown more in the last 6 months than I have in the last 6 years!! Maybe 20 years.”
