Hi, I'm Mel
For many years, I lived behind a mask, letting the “shoulds,” “supposed tos,” and comparisons dictate my life. I became completely disconnected from who I truly was.
​
I was a perfectionist, people-pleaser, and busy mom, hiding the imperfect side of my life—the burnout, negative self-talk, and lack of self-worth. I kept this up until I could no longer hide.
In 2017, I began experiencing debilitating panic attacks and was diagnosed with depression, osteoarthritis, and an autoimmune thyroid condition. My body, which I had neglected for so long, forced me to stop.
That was my wake-up call. I realized I needed to reassess my life and well-being to live authentically, fully, and happily.
I discovered yoga and meditation and began prioritizing time for myself. I embraced practices that nourished my soul—walking in nature, journaling, listening to music, resting, and creating space for stillness. Gradually, my energy returned, and I began to feel motivated, inspired, and excited about life again.
Healing also meant looking within. I delved into the layers of beliefs and conditioning that had dimmed my inner light. I uncovered the patterns of self-doubt and perfectionism that had held me back and began cultivating a deep sense of compassion, self-worth, and alignment.
I learned to set boundaries, speak kindly to myself, and trust my inner wisdom. Most importantly, I began to believe: I am enough, I am worthy, and I am powerful.
Now, it’s my greatest passion to guide others on their journey back to themselves. Through soul coaching, yoga, and heart-centered practices, I help women reconnect with their authentic selves, find their inner peace, and nurture their body, mind, and soul.
Let’s create space for you to rediscover your magic and live the life you truly deserve.
With love,
Mel x
