Dr. Mel walks the talk and helps others live their truth. Many are wandering, living inauthentically, and unsure of their purpose. She guides you back to your authentic self and gives you tools to embrace the new path courageously. I've been fortunate to attend her workshops, have one-on-one sessions, as well as, read her books. Regardless of the platform, Melanie pours fuel into your soul and ignites the fire within to live the life you're meant to live. I'm forever grateful for her ability to focus on your strengths and draw out your greatness.
