Not Feeling Like Yourself Lately?
You’re not alone — and you’re in the right place.
If you’re here, it might be because something feels off
— maybe you’re overwhelmed, unfulfilled, or simply running on autopilot. You might be longing for more meaning, deeper connection, or just a moment to breathe.

Hi, I'm Melissa.
Just like you, I wear lots of hats! I am a mom to three teenage boys. At home, I’m the chef, baker, laundress, chauffeur, travel agent, medic, and general concierge.
In terms of paid work, I also wear a lot of hats. I work 1:1 with women to help them find more joy in their lives. It’s an awesome job! I lead multi-day retreats for women and one day retreats for mothers and daughters. I wrote a book (I kind of can’t believe I did) several years ago called The Path to Joy and I have a twice-a-week podcast also named The Path to Joy with over two hundred episodes!
Why I Created JOY SCHOOL
”I've been where you are — feeling lost in the middle of my own life, wondering if this overwhelming, joyless feeling was just how midlife was supposed to be. It's not. I created JOY SCHOOL because every woman deserves to feel like herself again, without needing to completely overhaul her life to get there."
