Melanie Who?

I've long been convinced that I have both an elegant, sophisticated, driven, city-slickin', type-A executive and a laid-back, nature-loving, barefoot, hands-in-the-dirt, country girl inside of me vying for decision-making control of my life. I’ve always been a little bit of elegance and a little bit of dirt-under-the-nails. A little bit of Type-A and a little bit of laid-back. A little city hustle and a little mountain peace. Fast-moving days and slow afternoons in the porch swing. It took me years to get the lesson, but I did finally learn that my best life is lived when I allow all aspects of who I am to show up in harmony. {And the same is true for you.} And that’s what you’ll find when you connect with me here.

And what I hope you’ll also see is that underneath it all, at the very foundation of who I am, is a heart with a desire to make a purposeful, meaningful, everlasting impact in this world. A heart that desires to make a positive difference in the lives of people. A heart with hope and a drive to create a legacy for good, to leave the world better than when I joined it.  

If there is anything I know to be so very true, it is that life is a gift. Living right now is an experience unlike any other time in history. Right now we have more opportunity, more freedom, and more choice than at any other point in time about how we want to show up, who we want to be, and what we want to do with the God-given, unique talents within us. It truly is amazing.

It’s my heart’s desire to see people wake up to the true magnitude of the power of the life that is within them. I want to see women and men rising up and living their best and fullest lives – having that sense of satisfaction of making meaningful contribution to the world, the joy of feeling deeply connected, the peace that comes from living authentically, and the fulfillment of knowing they are truly living life with heart. I believe that the more we step into who we’re meant to be, the more we create space for others to do the same, and that’s a beautiful thing.

And that’s (at least partially) who I am.

If you’re looking for me, you may find me hustling through an airport, attending a personal or business growth event, or shopping. And if I’m not in any of those places, you’ll likely find me at home on the farm with my husband (Brett), my boys (Jackson & Benji), my dog (Queen Esther), my horses (Toby, Gideon & Aria), and my chickens (Bessie, Escape Jane, JoJo, Connie, Coco & Channing).

Or, if it’s easier (and it probably is) you can always find and connect with me right here.
