dOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?

 

You are educated, driven, and high-achieving. 

 

Dare I say, its even giving Bad Bitch Energy?! 

 

Your life looks amazing on the outside. 

But privately? 

 

There are parts of you that still feel starving.

You’ve done everything right but when it comes to your burning desires - they always seem to fall to the wayside.

Whether its the book, the retreat, the house, the travel, the relationship - you always seem to land back at "good enough."

And I know you have read the books, done the therapy, attended the retreats, you probably have tried every modality under the sun. 

So you start to wonder if it is universe redirecting you, if it is timing, or if it is just not meant for you.

It is not any of those things.

It is that your body has not yet given you permission. 

The invisible ceiling is not in your mindset - its in your nervous system.

And I have been exactly where you are.

 

this is not another mindset course 

Nor is it surface-level healing dressed up in pretty language.

The Release & Reclaim 1:1 coaching experience is where nervous system science, somatic embodiment, and belief identity surgery meet — so you can stop cycling through information and finally step into the identity of the woman you have been fighting to become.

Most coaches pick one lane. I use them all at once.

Because lasting change does not live in your head — it lives in your body, your beliefs, and your capacity to receive what you say you want.

After working with dozens of women, I have met so many wise and well-informed women who had invested thousands of dollars into their own healing and development - yet who are sleeping on their dreams 

And what I found is that taking a body-only approach or a mindset-only approach does not work.

You need:

  • Nervous system rewiring 

  • Somatic experiencing 

  • Belief and identity surgery 

  • Emotional release 

  • Authentic expression

This method was developed specifically for the woman who already has the information.

Sat in ceremonies, cried through breakthroughs, had endless ah-ha moments that took the stage for the day, only to end up back in the same loop

 

She has the knowledge.

She has the tools.

She has done the inner work. 

What she is missing is integration, embodiment, and a nervous system that actually feels safe in the new identity.

The identity of a woman who creates the business she wants. 

Who uses her voice without shrinking. Who books the retreat, writes the book, takes up space without apologizing for it. Who stops landing at "good enough" and starts receiving what she has always known she deserves.

A version of you who doesn't settle in relationships, radiates confidence, charges her worth and is in a state of over-flow. 

That woman is not out of reach & she is not waiting for more healing. 

She is waiting for her body to catch up to what her soul already knows.

That is exactly what we build here.

 

Release & Reclaim Method is proven system that combines:
Emotional release
Neuroplasticity
Somatic expanding of the nervous system
& Energetics 
 
to create lasting change and to bridge the gap between what you KNOW you desire and what your body feels safe holding

This system is designed to take you from knowing to action and dreaming to creating 

 

Here is what you can expect over the course of this program:

CLARITY & VISION MAPPING 

 

Get radically honest about what you actually want vs. what you've been performing wanting.

 

We excavate the real vision developed at a SOUL level. We breathe life into the desires that light up and get you turned on by life.

RELEASE - THE NERUOSCIENCE OF YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM 

We work to understand why your body has been blocking expansion.  

  • ​Where is your body tensing when you start to express yourself? 

  • ​Why does success feel scary?

  • ​What do you feel you have to lose in order to have your dreams come true?

We work with the science, not against it.

EXPAND - NERVOUS SYSTEM CAPACITY & REWIRING

In the Release & Reclaim method - we build the actual capacity to hold the life you desire by somtically introducing new experiences into the body and teaching it a new normal. 

CREATE - INSPIRED ACTION & AUTHENTIC EXPRESSION

 

Now we build. From the new identity, with a real plan, into the business, the community, the life that belongs to you.

BELIEF UPGRADE & IDENTITY SURGERY 

 

Identify the outdated beliefs keeping you small, performing, rejecting your authenticity. 

We don't just reframe them — we replace them at the root while working with the nervous system to 

SHIFT FROM FEAR & LACK TO TRUST AND ABUNDANCE 

We use somatic practices and emotional release to rewire the fear response and create safety in receiving more.  

 

I want to be clear - we do not delete the experience of fear and where it is coming from. 

 

We work WITH it and learn how its serving you and how to move through it regulated and embodied so that it no longer keeps you stuck. 

INTEGRATE - SHADOW WORKS, PARTS WORK AND SELF LOVE

 

Meet every part of yourself — the inner child, the shadow, the saboteur — and turn each one into your greatest asset.

I started working with Melissa during one of the hardest seasons of my life — fighting breast cancer and going through chemotherapy.

She helped me create a clear, realistic action plan that gave me a sense of control and hope when I needed it most — all with compassion, patience, and zero judgment.

If you're looking for someone who understands trauma and helps you transform pain into purpose, she is absolutely life changing."

kelly 

1:1 coaching client

"I was completely lost and unaware of what was happening in my body when i started working with melissa. 

I was afraid of everything and full of anxiety. 

Working with melissa helped me connect to all the stored emotions in my body and release them.

 

I learned how to set boundaries & regulate my nervous system

This changed my life"

jo 

1:1 coaching client

“My coaching experience was indescribable. Working with Melissa felt like coming home

I met all versions of myself and all masks that I wore

I healed so many layers 

I was able to start my business, set prices for my services and I stopped running from my power and started running towards it ”

At 32 years old, I was working at Panera for $9.25 an hour. I was wearing thrifted shoes and crying at the fact that I had to serve bagels to women living a life I could only dream of 

 

Fast forward to today, I became the women I used to only dream of becoming 

 

I live a full, romantic life. I travel the world, I've built a successful coaching business, I host sold out events and international retreats. 

The dreams that were once "too good to be true" have become my new normal.

frequently asked questions:

I am afraid it will not work for me.

I hear you. And I want you to sit with something for a second — that fear? That is your nervous system doing exactly what we are here to change. It has kept you safe by keeping you small, and right now it is telling you that wanting more is dangerous. That is not the truth. That is a pattern.

Every woman who has transformed has stood exactly where you are standing right now, looking at the edge, unsure if she can jump.

The question is not whether this will work. It is whether you are done letting fear be the one making your decisions.

 

I do not have the money.

First, I want you to get honest with yourself about whether this is a practical concern or a nervous system response to something feeling too big, too good, too much. Because those are very different conversations. If it is a genuine financial constraint, we have payment plans designed to make this accessible. But if the money fear is the same fear that shows up every time you are about to bet on yourself — that is actually the most important thing we would work on together. Book the discovery call. Let's figure out what is actually true.

 

My husband or spouse does not support me.

This one deserves a real conversation, not a dismissal. And also — I want you to notice what it means that someone else's opinion is the deciding factor in whether you invest in yourself. That is not a relationship problem. That is an identity problem. The woman you are becoming inside this container does not need external permission to choose herself. If your partner's support matters to you, bring them into the discovery call. Let them hear what this actually is. But do not let someone else's comfort level with your growth be the reason you stay stuck.

 

I feel guilty spending this on myself.

That guilt is data. It is telling you exactly how far outside of your comfort zone it is to prioritize yourself — and that is precisely why you need this. The women in this container are not selfish. They are the ones who have given everything to everyone else and are finally learning that they cannot pour from empty. When you invest in becoming her, every single person around you benefits. Your kids, your partner, your clients, your community. The guilt is the old identity talking. Let's build a new one.

 

Life is really full right now. It does not feel like the right time.

It never will. I need you to hear that. There will always be a reason — a launch, a season, a family thing, a move, a transition. The women who wait for the right time are still waiting. And the women who said yes when it felt inconvenient? They are the ones who look back at this exact moment as the one that changed everything. This program is built with integration weeks and flexible support precisely because your life is full. You do not need more space. You need a container that works with your real life.

 

Let me DIY this for a little longer and see if I can figure it out.

How long have you been figuring it out? A year? Three? Five? I am not asking to shame you — I am asking because the definition of the loop you are in is trying the same approach and expecting a different result. Information is not your problem. You have plenty of it. What you are missing is integration, a regulated nervous system, and someone who can see what you cannot see about yourself. You can keep DIYing. Or you can decide that this is the year you actually get out of your own way.

 

I have tried coaching before and it did not work.

Because most coaching lives in the head. It gives you frameworks, accountability, strategy — and none of that touches the nervous system. If your body does not feel safe expanding, no amount of mindset work is going to override it. What we do inside Release & Reclaim is different at the root. We are not just talking about your patterns — we are working in the body, in the beliefs, in the shadow, and in the identity all at once. If what you tried before did not work, it is probably because it was only addressing one piece of a much bigger picture.

 

I have done nervous system work and I still do not have my dream life.

Nervous system work alone is not enough. You can regulate your system and still be running the same outdated story about who you are and what you are allowed to have. Somatic practice without identity work leaves a gap — and that gap is exactly where the dream keeps falling through. The Release & Reclaim Method works because it combines all of it. The body, the beliefs, the identity, the integration, the inspired action. One lane is not enough. That is why we use them all.

there is a version of you that you havent met yet

Your desires are NOT random 

They aren't here to tease you 

They are divine direction

Lets get your body on board so that extraordinary becomes your new baseline
