Dr. Minnie Young - Educator and Author (USA)
I was amazed that after just the first session, Coach Mel had already helped me move from a place where I was unsure of what to do with myself to having a clear vision and a path for my life. Through her skillful questioning, she gently guided me from one insight to another and from one breakthrough to the next. After only a few weeks, I felt empowered, hopeful, and confident that I would achieve my goal, something I initially thought was out of reach!
I truly look forward to our conversations. With her, I feel I am in a safe, non-judgmental space where I can be myself without apology. She helps me sort through my muddled thoughts and turn them into clear, manageable next steps. Making progress each week only increases my motivation and my belief that my goal is indeed achievable. I love having someone to “report” my wins to and celebrate my progress with.
I could not do without Coach Mel’s practical guidance in looking at my challenges in a different way. She helped me recognise my strengths and own my accomplishments. She rebuilt my confidence and with it, my satisfaction with myself. Since working with her, I have been more productive, more motivated, and genuinely happier.
What a gift she has given me!
Mariane R. - Corporate Planning Lead (Philippines)
I was having a hard time knowing what I really wanted. I was full of doubts about my capabilities and felt stuck in a career path that didn't feel right. I needed clarity on my strengths, but mostly, I just needed to know if I was on the right track.
Getting coached was a turning point. The sessions felt warm, safe, and completely non-judgemental. For the first time in a long time, I felt truly heard.
Coach Mel gave me the push to love myself and recognise my worth—not just professionally, but personally.
The result? I was able to leave my old job and find a career that pays my worth—and actually excites me. Now I have a concrete game plan for my goals. I have a clear understanding, awareness and acceptance of myself. I’m now a person who knows her worth and is determined to pursue her chosen path.

Mel isn’t just a skilled coach—she genuinely cares. You can feel her commitment to helping you from the moment the conversation starts. She has this way of seeing beyond what’s said, getting to the heart of the situation, and asking the kinds of questions that make you pause, reflect, and uncover what’s really going on inside.
My sessions with her opened doors to self‑awareness I didn’t even realize I needed. She helped me understand the roots of my challenges and guided me toward clearer, more intentional actions. What I appreciate most is how her own life experiences come through in her insights—she speaks with depth, empathy, and authenticity.
Working with Coach Mel has been grounding, clarifying, and genuinely transformative for me.
Cara G. - Business Owner (Philippines)
No one cares about your survival story until you've survived. No one cares about your struggles until you've shown success.
Coach Mel had a huge part in crafting my survival story and making sense of my struggles. She taught me how to recognize the wins, big and small, cheering me on every step of the way.
Thank you, Coach, for guiding me home to my truth.
Eugene Neborak - Solution Architect & Mindset Coach (Australia)
Working with Mel as a coach has been an amazing experience. She has great attention to detail and is able to uncover the underlying cause of challenges, obstacles and goals in a very quick and methodical way. Mel is able to keep you accountable, motivated and keep moving you towards your desired goals! She creates a safe space where you will open up more to her vs your best friend as you feel safe, don't feel any judgement and she listens to everything you say and plays it back to make sure nothing is missed. I would highly recommend Mel as a coach to anyone seeking to grow, do any self development and level up to the next stage.
Uyen Tran To - Campus Manager (Vietnam)
I experienced Mel’s coaching during a time when I felt uncertain about my next steps and needed greater clarity in my direction. With her strong background in people management, the coaching approach was both practical and insightful.
Through thoughtful questions and attentive listening, she created a supportive space for reflection that helped me look at my situation from different perspectives. She guided me to reconnect with my own priorities and identify clearer actions moving forward.
What I particularly appreciated was that after the session, Mel also shared relevant research references and insightful resources that I could further explore and apply in real life. These materials made the reflection more actionable and helped me continue implementing the insights beyond the coaching conversation. The session helped me regain clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of direction.
I would highly recommend Mel to anyone looking for a thoughtful coach, especially when navigating career decisions, leadership challenges, or moments of transition.
