Michelle Foulia — Entrepreneur, Writer, and Changemaker

Michelle is a visionary entrepreneur, writer, bibliotherapist, unschooling mum, and educator on a mission to empower young people to build businesses that create both freedom and impact. As the co-founder of Young Entrepreneur Start-Ups, she is passionate about equipping teens with the mindset and skills to thrive in an ever-changing world.

A storyteller at heart, Michelle weaves personal experience, ancestral wisdom, practical entrepreneurship, and her therapeutic training into a movement that challenges outdated systems and inspires a new generation of ethical, purpose-driven entrepreneurs. She believes that business should be a force for good, and through her work, she helps young people turn their ideas into meaningful ventures that shape the future creating a new movement for a better world.

When she’s not coaching young entrepreneurs, Michelle explores the deeper layers of transformation, healing, spirituality, and legacy—whether through writing, nature, or her connection to ancestral wisdom.

Empowering people with gusto

“The critical thing is empowering people and part of empowerment is making people understand their legal rights more and it’s theirs, being able to identify the persona in authority to make a decision and having the elbow when somebody says “no” to say “well I’m sorry..” and those are the three things and I think you do that with gusto and are an example in that regard.”

“How to Complain

Helen Dewdney’s How to Complain is a masterclass in asserting your rights with wit, precision and just the right amount of righteous fury. It’s the book every consumer didn’t know they desperately needed – until now.”

“101 Habit of an Effective Complainer

If complaining is an art form, Helen Dewdney is Rembrandt. This book is easy to follow, beautifully written and – above all – teaches us that complaining effectively doesn’t require rudeness or angry sharp elbows. Dewdney’s book is a brilliant reminder that being a successful complainer (or getting what you were entitled to in the first place) is simple to achieve and can even be fun. Her superb how-to guide isn’t for ‘complainers,’ it’s for anybody who has ever been a consumer and been let down – it’s for all of us.”

“How to Get Free PR and be Paid for it

Helen Dewdney writes with fearless clarity and she’s done it again… She’s one of my few and regular go-tos, especially for how to approach consumer issues or in the event of an urgent sense check. This book is packed full of great and creative ideas for building up excellent PR, establishing yourself as the expert and keeping the momentum going. She is – hands down – a mega star in the world of consumer affairs and in this latest book, on PR, she shares how you can do it for yourself.”
