Melanie M. Shelby
Entrepreneur, Board Member, Professional Fixer
"I often share if you left the pandemic the way you entered, you missed the lesson. Notably, the opportunity to rest, reflect, reimagine, and set clear intentions for the future.
Over the past 10 years, I launched the discovery of seeing myself the way God sees me. This journey required addressing my mental, spiritual, emotional, and physical well-being while healing past traumas to engage in new experiences. The pandemic culminated the focus of this work, while clarify the calling over my life.
As a professional fixer, I’m skilled at creating structure, order and focus for others; however, I knew I required assistance to navigate the complexities on this phase of my journey. I shared my concerns with friends to identify support, and through one of these conversations I was introduced to Sara. It was nearly 2 decades since I worked with a leadership coach and knew as an entrepreneur, I was overdue to invest in myself.
Upon my initial interaction with Sara, I recognized life coaching, and spirituality would inform our work. Sara inventoried my progress to date, and provided tools and resources to deepen my awareness and practice. The support informed my evolution to create new priorities while establishing clear professional and personal boundaries to achieve my goals.
As a result, I now exemplify grace, mercy, and gratitude in pursuit of creating jobs and investing in underserved communities while using my gifts and passion for service to change lives and disrupt the status quo.”
