Speaker,author, artist, coach.
Speaker at Salon Smart 2025, London.
' Doing it better - How salons are uniquely positioned to deliver what everyone is searching for.'
I am Mikyla Limpkin, a problem-solver, creator, and storyteller championing kindness and connection. As a Speaker and Group Coach I'm known for my vibrant energy, deep empathy, and inspiring perspective, providing the tools and encouragement needed to make meaningful change. I am currently solving the problem of working with a new webhost and new web-builder tools, so I am practising 'imperfect action'. Fingers crossed that mastery will come before a 1000 hours of practise have passed...
I am an expert-by-experience having spent many years working in Community Development. My experience of PTSD led me on a deep research dive, which culminated in my first book, How to Love and Be Loved. I promote a philosophy of wellness and regularly share tips in my newsletter, which you can sign up for below.
As well as an author, I am an artist, and much to the amusement of my family, can't leave home without a notebook, pen, sketch pad and drawing inks. I recently started painting in oils. My muse continues to be a character called 'Indigo Violet' who climbed out of my sketch book during lock-down. I post my art on my Instagram account just to challenge myself to draw every day.
My mission is to inspire the discovery that love is always within reach, waiting to be seen, felt, and shared, and my wish is that you will always be in the company of smiles.
I am passionate about kindness and local economies - this website is kind to dyslexics, (following guidelines of the British Dyslexia Association) and hosted by a UK company running on green energy.
Author:
How to Love and Be Loved, is a transformative guide to finding love and connection in the small, everyday moments of life. My heartfelt belief is that profound change starts with tiny, intentional steps.
Drawing from my experiences, and a background steeped in mindfulness and self-discovery, this book is a blend of womanly wisdom and practical guidance to help you nurture deeper relationships — with yourself, your community, and the world around you.
