Meet the working mom behind WorkMom

Hi! I’m Mel.

Over the last 15 years, I’ve built sales teams from scratch and coached hundreds of leaders and professionals at some of the world’s most reputable tech companies in my quest to climb the corporate ladder.

But everything—and I mean, everything—changed when I had my first baby: my priorities, ambition, sense of purpose, and identity. When I went back to work, I felt overwhelmed, insecure, and lost (not to mention: so sleep-deprived I couldn’t remember my computer password). Does that sound like you? If so, I’m thrilled you’re here!

I created WorkMom for new mothers just like you going through this intense life transition. I can’t wait to help transform the way you think about balancing career and motherhood.

xoxo,
Mel

My mission is to help make your life 1% easier than it was yesterday.

The WorkMom philosophy

a unique approach to working motherhood

There’s a lot of noise out there about how hard it is to juggle career and motherhood—but no one to tell you how to actually do it successfully (without tearing your hair out). At WorkMom, we cut through the cliches and offer actionable tips and proven strategies to actually transform your life as a working mom. 

Our WorkMom philosophy is based on these three foundational tools, the backbone of everything we offer.

  • Identifying your unique core values—the handful of uncompromising principles most important to you—is the single most effective step to simplify your life, eliminate the unnecessary mental clutter that’s wearing you down, and help you say "no" to energy-draining, time-sucking stressors.

  • You’re working hard, no doubt, but what are you working toward? Once you identify your personal North Star (your dream vision for your life), it’s that much easier to get there and your life will feel significantly more purposeful. Armed with a roadmap and a single, clear purpose, your career path becomes more frictionless.

  • No more getting pulled in a million directions every waking moment of the day. I’ll help you create flexible and adaptive organizational systems designed to get you out from under the crush of the daily to-do list and put you back in the driver’s seat of your life.

  • “I am forever grateful for Mel’s unwavering support and guidance I received as I navigated my transition back to the workforce. Her invaluable advice on juggling family responsibilities and career aspirations helped me find my confidence and create my own version of a work-life balance.”

It’s far easier to stay in the status quo simply because you’ve been doing it for so long or because you’re really good at it. But it’s a heck of a lot more fulfilling when you listen to your gut instinct and do the thing that
