Rave Reviews
“Every conversation became an invitation to connect the dots…”
I could talk to Melissa all day! She sees things and is so in-tune and observant. She has a true gift! I’m shutting out certain voices and listening to myself more. As a mom, we are so used to putting everyone first. Melissa has helped me to truly listen to my inner voice. I have great ideas and thoughts. My goals are important. My family benefits when I’m happy and healthy. I had no idea some of the negative language I use thinking of myself. I can now see when self doubt has crept in and I can change it by remembering techniques Melissa has taught me. I have had many aha moments with Melissa!
Over the course of my coaching journey, I have made impressive strides in aligning my family life with my core values of love, structure, and fun. I am cultivating a home environment that reflects my belief in teamwork and shared ownership. My parenting approach is evolving from protective to empowering, reinforcing healthy habits and systems that support my long-term vision. I have successfully created a thoughtful and balanced summer schedule that supports both my daughters’ development and my own work-life balance.
Melissa has been a steady force during a season when I needed to rethink not just what I do—but how I do it, and why. And I say “professional” loosely, because she doesn’t let you separate the work from the person…..Every conversation became an invitation to connect the dots—between my values, my gifts, my doubts, and the kind of life I actually want to build. I left those conversations feeling lighter. Like I’d finally said something out loud I didn’t know I needed to say. Whether it was about work, family, or (most importantly) myself.
