Melissa grew up with a strong work ethic and the desire to help others anyway she could. She also grew up with a deep connection to church and her faith. These connections served her well later in life.

Melissa knew that she wanted children and to be a mom, but first, through a series of events, she became a nanny to two other children first. She eventually wed, and even though Melissa’s first marriage did not end well, she did become a mother because of it. She has now been married to her current husband for over 15 years and is a mother of 4. But it wasn’t easy. Along the way, Melissa has suffered several miscarriages and through her faith, has been able to remain strong.

Melissa sees herself as a lightworker in the world surrounded by darkness. She is always seeking to improve the environment around her and to continue to bring out the best in everyone she can.

Tune in to hear an amazing soul share her journey and how she was able to remain better when the world could have made her bitter instead.
