Heart Leaders
An Intuitive Approach to
Business Success

Hi I'm Melissa and I help purpose-led people who want to turn an idea into a business, or who want inspiration with marketing their business.  I also help founders who want more work life balance and who have lost touch with their 'why'.

  Through in-person events, creating community and one to one consulting,

I invite you to experience a heart-led way of working

Ultimately, everything I share is to help you connect to your inner knowing and hearts desire - so that you can live your greatest purpose, for the greatest good.

 

It takes more than an AI-generated strategy to make your business a success

Because success should never be measured just by your business turnover

It's about enjoying what you're doing and having a balanced life

It's about the peace of mind that comes from being confident in your decisions

It's about creating something you're so proud of, and passionate about, that it gives you the resilience you need when things don't go as planned

And I believe the only way to do that - is through your heart

One to One Sessions

Events & Group Workshops

We're living in a world where our senses are constantly overstimulated and overwhelm is almost the norm. We've been conditioned to believe that success requires endless growth and that if we're not busy, we must be doing something wrong.

Yet many of us are feeling a different truth.  That it doesn't have to be this way.

The way we work is inextricably linked to how we approach life in general. Our businesses are just one part of this beautiful (ugly), exhilarating (terrifying) journey. We can approach it as a pathway to learning, or as a rocky road filled with obstacles - which one do you choose?     I offer experiences, guidance and tools that I hope will empower you to feel:-

​If you’re seriously weirded out by what feels like a digital takeover of how we connect and market our businesses, then I offer a different way.

After many months of deep contemplation, I received 'Heart Leaders'. It is an approach

that underpins all that I offer.

 

 I believe in a world that is full of good and kind people.

This is my contribution to helping us lead the way to a better way of doing business,

with heart.

Staying motivated and on top of everything when you run your own business can feel very lonely and stressful - especially when you’re just starting out or navigating change. Procrastination creeps in, and it’s easy to get stuck, unable to see the bigger picture. Sometimes you just need a person to bounce ideas off, to help you recalibrate, or assure you that you're on the right path.

"Melissa's passion and energy for all things 'business' shines through this course. I benefited from her guidance, wisdom and enthusiasm greatly and I have already taken important steps to promote myself and my services.

 

I have realised how important it is investing my time 'a little and often' with regards to what I previously viewed as the mountain of marketing. Growing my business is my responsibility and with Melissa's support I am finding more pleasure and positivity in this role. I can hand on heart recommend."

"Melissa’s strengths are gentleness, experience and bringing people together and I really valued having dedicated time to spend on my business, learning business & marketing frameworks and connecting with like-minded people.  

 

I feel much more motivated and supported, especially being able to co-work with people that were also on the programme.  From the very first session, I felt seen, heard, and deeply supported.   The space was filled with genuine connection, soulful conversation, and practical insight that truly resonated with my values."
