Meet Melanie - Award winning mentor, author and counsellor

Then

I found myself becoming a female entrepreneur quite by accident. In 2009 I started writing my own blog which rapidly and unintentionally transformed into a ‘petite’ business - Scarletta Media.

Being on the cusp of the social revolution I worked with small businesses and indie consultants all over the world on creating and teaching social media strategies, growing online communities and establishing authentic living brands.

I’d find myself working with remarkable women who just like me, were seeking more depth, purpose and meaning to their lives personally and professionally.

But as I approached my 40th year my life came to an abrupt halt. We sadly lost our baby daughter Grace Rose during my pregnancy and this changed everything. You can read more about this here.

As I began to grieve and heal, I eventually chose to awaken to a new way of being and showing up in the world. I learned how to let go of who I once believed I ‘should’ be and embraced the real me, the woman within.

This transformation naturally transitioned into my work as I began to connect and work with more women who felt as I did. Fed up of being ignored, belittled and shut down. And so in 2018 Scarletta Media closed and I launched a brand new business, in my own name, one which could grow, bloom and transform and evolve with me. And five years on here we are.

Now

My mindful and intentional work is immersed with divine feminine wisdom, led by mother nature and brings women, and sometimes men, back to themselves and know and trust in who they are really here to be.

As I tune into you I can then guide, encourage and empower you to fully reconnect to yourself, whilst expressing your divine femininity and true nature. You come home to you.

There are three values that remain firmly at the heart and soul of my work authenticity, connection to self and others and community.

I intentionally speak up and use my voice if it supports a good cause, shares valuable wisdom or insights and inspires others.

I passionately believe in encouraging and empowering women of all ages to be themselves, who they really are whilst building their lives on their own terms.

I actively support and mentor modern day women (and sometimes men!) through big and small life transitions including divorce, bereavement or their own mid-life awakening.

I believe - the only way to see and experience more positive feminine change and shift the balance is if we collectively stand together and use our powerful voices to speak up.

I know - we owe it to ourselves and all the women who came before us and all those who follow to lead the way and light the path ahead whilst being true to ourselves.

Because we can.

My mentoring style is infused with the feminine, mindful well-being practices and led by mother nature and seasonal life cycles.

I have a Diploma in the Divine Feminine and am MBSR certified from the University of Massachusetts - (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) which is incorporated into my mentoring work and services.

MINDFUL MENTORING INFUSED WITH DIVINE FEMININE AND NATURE LED PRACTICES

And I live among an abundance of wildlife and nature, our home sits alongside a Site of Scientific Interest (SSSI). Being here transformed my well-being and mental health for the better, leading to garden and nature therapy being fundamental to my healing work and offerings.

I love being outdoors whatever the weather, pottering about in our garden, walking in nature, writing, BE-ing with my loved ones; and I am currently expanding my skills and expertise with the benefits of sound healing.

And you’ll often find me sharing snippets and mindful moments on Instagram. Come and say hello.
