Special Guest: Mimika Cooney

Mimika Cooney is passionate about empowering and equipping Christian leaders to unlock their personal potential and become the leaders they were born to be. Mimika is a Motivational Speaker, Author, Leadership Mentor, and the host of the “Mimika TV Podcast”.

Her boutique branding and media company "Mimika Media" provides a turn-key marketing service for Christian Leaders to help them Position their Brand and Publish their Message through Books, Podcasts and Media.

Huffington Post nominated her as one of "50 Women Entrepreneurs to Follow in 2017". Podcasting Magazine nominated Mimika amongst the “Top 50 Moms in Podcasting” in 2020. She is an International Award Winning Photographer from her 12 years spent running a portrait photography studio.

After experiencing severe rejection, bullying and a broken childhood; Mimika spent years pursuing accolades and addicted to approval, in the pursuit of finding her worth, validation and confidence. Then God stepped in to heal her hurts, change her heart and awaken a passion for helping others seeking their purpose in life.

She is passionate about empowering and equipping Christian leaders to fulfill their God-given purpose by sharing the message of God's grace in a world lost in negativity, fear and doubt.

Mimika loves to spark honest conversations, blaze a trail where others fear to tread, and infuse positivity wherever she goes. She is known for building community, creating connections and helping others share their story with passion and purpose. Her persistence and tenacity toward overcoming struggles has equipped her to empower others to do the same.

Mimika is a native of South Africa and naturalized citizen of the USA. She is a ferocious reader and insatiably curious. She enjoys watching soppy romantic comedies with her dashing husband of 25 years (who is her childhood sweetheart), and vacations at the beach with her 3 kids (ages 21, 19 and 10). Her husband is the co-owner of a SaaS company, so startups and tech talk often make for dinner time discussion.

When she is not dreaming up creative concepts, speaking, training, writing books or hosting her podcast; she will be found perfecting her spins on the ice as a competitive adult figure skater. As a personal challenge, Mimika took up skating as an adult at age 33. She has made it her mission to retrain her brain and muscle memory to learn this new skill. It goes to show that you can teach an old dog new tricks!
