"Melissa's visit to our Club was nothing short of remarkable. She not only captivated our team with her expertise and passion for promoting mental health (in the funniest and most approachable way) in the workplace but also led a thought-provoking book signing event afterward. The impact of Melissa's visit reached the highest echelons of our organization. We received overwhelmingly positive feedback from our C-suite, who collectively agreed that she was the best speaker our Club has ever brought in."

“Her messaging was simple and actionable, and the feedback from the many attendees was overwhelmingly positive.”

— VMware, Sheri Byrne-Haber, Senior Staff Accessibility Architect
“Starting a mental well-being conversation in a corporate setting of over 400 professionals can be challenging but inviting Mel to guest speak at our monthly call was a game-changer. She spoke in a professional yet down-to-earth and non-scripted manner that left everyone feeling refreshed and comfortable. We were amazed by the level of engagement that Mel brought out in our team and the positive response that we received following the session. She went above and beyond our expectations by sending written answers to the questions that we didn’t get to during the session so that we could share them with the team. We can’t recommend her enough.”

— Siemens, Steve Kanaplue, Director - Risk Management
“From start to finish Melissa was professional, flexible, genuine and an absolute wealth of knowledge in the mental health field. She worked with us on customizing content for a very specific audience - she nailed the message we wanted to convey and in a very authentic way. I was so impressed with Melissa's approach and expertise I purchased her book to learn more on my own about how to support my team with mental health conversations at work. Anyone that leads people or works in a team environment would greatly benefit from Melissa's resources and tools.”

— Aveda, Rachel Sawyer, Sales Director
“Melissa is a thought-provoking, entertaining, and talented keynote speaker who is an asset to any conference. She draws on her considerable professional experience but delivers it to her audience with a light touch that is palatable to non-specialists. She’s sparky and gently challenging with an energy which makes her ideal for opening a conference or lifting an audience when they are flagging.”

— BBC, Alistair Macdonald, AMTV Crisis News Management and former BBCTV Reporter/Producer
