TRUSTED BY

  • I’ve had the privilege of having Melinda as an invited speaker at several of my leadership trainings, where her insights and transparency have been truly inspiring. Melinda fearlessly shared her own leadership journey, delving into the highs and lows with honesty and authenticity. What struck me the most was her willingness to discuss the challenges she faced in maintaining work-life balance, and how candidly she spoke about the strategies that helped her on her journey. Her openness created a genuine connection with the audience, fostering an atmosphere of trust and understanding. I highly recommend her as a speaker for any leadership event, as she brings a refreshing blend of honesty, transparency, and relatability that is truly exceptional.

  • Your presentation at the C&I show was very authentic, motivational and inspiring. Myself and the team loved what you presented and you really did make a positive impact, especially on the younger women in our team who are at the beginning of their careers.
