About
I’m Melissa Bright, a Certified Life Coach who knows firsthand what it’s like when life doesn’t go according to plan, and what it takes to keep moving forward and create something different.
I became a mom at 16 and raised my daughter while figuring out a whole lot of life along the way. At 25, I lost my mom, who was also my best friend and biggest support system. By 35, I had lost my dad too. I’ve navigated enormous loss, left a long-term relationship, started over, changed direction in my work, and made decisions that scared the hell out of me. I didn’t wake up one day and magically have a different life. I changed my life one choice at a time.
That experience is a big part of what led me to coaching. I know what it’s like to know something needs to change and still struggle with everything that comes up when it’s time to actually do it. Today, I help people work through the overthinking, fear, second-guessing, and patterns that keep getting in the way so they can take action and make the change they’ve been wanting to make.
Since 2021, I’ve also hosted more than 100 long-form conversations with leading experts in psychology, relationships, mindfulness, behavior change, and personal development. Those conversations have strengthened the way I listen, ask thoughtful questions, recognize patterns, and help people explore what may be happening underneath the surface. I bring that experience, my professional training, and a whole lot of real life into every coaching conversation. 🌻

What sets me apart
Why Choose Melissa
I bring together professional coach training, real-life experience navigating major change, and years of deep conversations with leading experts in psychology, relationships, mindfulness, and behavior change. I’m warm and supportive, but I’ll also ask the questions that help you see what you may not be seeing on your own and turn those insights into action.
Methodology
My Coaching Approach
My coaching style is warm, honest, curious, and action-oriented. I’ll ask thoughtful questions, listen for patterns, and help you look at what may be happening underneath the surface. I’m supportive, but I’m also willing to challenge you when needed.
We’ll talk about what you actually want to change, what keeps getting in the way, and what you can do next. I don’t believe you need to have everything figured out before you move forward. We’ll work with what’s coming up in real time and keep bringing the conversation back to the choices and actions that move you toward the life you want.
You can expect real conversations, practical next steps, accountability, and someone firmly in your corner as you follow through.
Best Fit
Who I Help
I work best with people who know there’s something in their life they want to change, but keep getting in their own way when it comes to actually doing it.
Maybe there’s a decision you need to make, something you want to start, a situation you’re ready to leave, a boundary you need to set, a conversation you need to have, or a goal you’ve been thinking about for months or even years. You may find yourself overthinking, second-guessing, procrastinating, waiting until you feel ready, worrying about making the wrong choice, or talking yourself out of taking the next step.
You don’t need to come to coaching with everything figured out. You just need to know that you want something to be different and be willing to work toward making that change.
