A message from Dr. Melissa

As we consider how our social location impacts the world around us, we need to stay connected to ourselves and each other. I believe exhaustion and overwhelm often get in the way of being mindfully engaged in our lives. It would be a joy to walk alongside you & your team as you create time to connect with yourselves and each other in a meaningful way. 

My approach to speaking engagements and trainings is decolonial. When you hire me, it is my privilege to  be in community with all those who attend, offering skills to support empathy and wellbeing. Together we will explore ideas, concepts & practices empowering you to walk away with a deeper sense of self-awareness & intention.

My speaking fees range from FREE (for grassroots social justice spaces) to $3000.00 for virtual and in-person trainings, keynotes, and corporate gatherings.

​Looking forward to learning & unlearning with you. 

With goodness,
Melissa
