Hello

After years of excelling in traditional corporate settings while feeling creatively stifled and professionally unfulfilled, Melissa made the bold decision to pursue the joyful expression that was calling to her. What started as small steps toward authenticity blossomed into a complete transformation, both personally and professionally.

​

When she began honoring her creative spirit, everything shifted. Her confidence soared, her style exploded into the colorful, bold expression she'd always craved, and she found the courage to leave corporate life behind to build something entirely her own. This journey from conformity to authentic self-expression became the foundation for her work as a Joy Guide & Coach.

​

Today, Melissa works alongside people who are ready to claim the freedom to live the lives they know they're meant for, in all the boldness, color, and vibrancy that feels authentic to them. She understands firsthand what it's like to feel your ideas dismissed and your creativity boxed in, and she's passionate about helping others break free from those limitations.

​

When she's not guiding clients toward their most joyful lives, you can find Melissa frolicking in the waters of the Oregon coast, belting out ridiculous tunes at karaoke (her philosophy: sing loudly when you don't have a good voice), and diving into whatever random craft or artistic pursuit catches her fancy.
