DUNDEE, UK. August 28th, 2025 – A Scotland-based entrepreneur who went from feeling burnt out and unfulfilled in her corporate career to running multiple 6- and 7-figure businesses is celebrating a milestone year, marked by a bestselling book, international recognition, and the rapid growth of her coaching community.
Michelle De Almeida, founder of MDA Business Coaching, became an Amazon No. 1 bestselling author earlier this year with her contribution to the anthology From The Heart: The Heart-Led Way To Get Unstuck, Find Your Purpose And Live Your Passion. The book topped multiple categories on Amazon and is raising funds for Business Women Connect Futures, a charitable initiative supporting young women to start their own businesses.
Michelle’s chapter shares her personal journey through infertility struggles, burnout, and a pivotal career change that led her to launch her own business in December 2021. She now runs three companies and works with entrepreneurs worldwide to create profitable businesses that align with their purpose.
This year has been a turning point for Michelle. She launched Limitless, a free business community in February, which has already grown to more than 1,200 members. In August, she unveiled a new 7-figure coaching programme to meet growing client demand. In October, she will make her international speaking debut at The Global Icons of Impact 2025 conference in Dubai, joining world-class leaders and entrepreneurs on the global stage.
Michelle has also judged the 2025 BWC Edinburgh Athena Awards, celebrating women in business across Scotland, an event where she was previously a finalist twice.
“Looking back, every challenge and victory has brought me to where I am today, and it’s a place of purpose and empowerment,” said Michelle De Almeida. “I’m passionate about making committed decisions and taking action, which can help business owners who feel like I did break free from overwhelm, reclaim control, and step into a life they love. This year’s achievements are proof that investing in yourself is worth it.”
Michelle’s journey is a powerful reminder that it’s possible to turn adversity into opportunity and generate life-changing results. She now dedicates all facets of her career to empowering other business owners to do the same.
