Meet MELISSA
My passion for speaking and teaching about emotional wellness stems from my own encounters with the challenges of emotional fatigue and burnout as well as the transformative outcomes I have witnessed in my audiences and clients. I spent nearly 30 years working in the helping professions, much of that in the field of early childhood education. After starting off as a direct service provider, I moved into other roles including those of trainer, coach, mentor and director. After ending up in the hospital twice for stress related illnesses, I knew if I was going to continue to do the work in the field and stay alive, that I had to do something different. For me, that difference was stress management, boundaries and self-care.
I am passionate about wellness, particularly for those who help others. I enjoy supporting the growth and development of others as they strive towards meeting their full potential while still maintaining an appropriate work life balance and a healthy sense of well-being.
