About Me
Approachable Badass
& Chief Visionary
Behind the Scenes
Branding Meets Speaking
Brand is in my blood. I tried to escape it by burning Sisarina, my brand strategy agency, down and calling myself a recovering brand strategist, yet it runs through my veins.
With over 20 years of experience building business brands and personal brands, I launched Confidancia – an agency helping rebels discover their brilliance and spark their revolutions.
They say you have to walk the talk – and if I can toot my own horn for anything, being on brand is something I do well – in business and in life.
Since my personal brand is Approachable Badass, I live and breathe helping you find your own branded language, style, and purpose by being approachable enough to learn your heart, then turning on the badass to help you show up & show off for yourself and those you’re here to serve.
“I’m profoundly grateful for the opportunity to connect back into my body, heart, and purpose. I came in feeling disengaged with my life and my business and I am leaving feeling a deeper appreciation, appeal, and love for who I am and who I am called to become.” – Kayleigh O’Keefe, CEO of Soul Excellence Publishing
I know I am not for everyone. Only for those who are ready to show up for themselves. You can find me speaking on big stages all over the world, playing at corporate trainings for companies big & small, and creating curated retreats for our private clients.
It took me 20 years to figure out who I am and I’m still stepping into who Melanie will be. So, I’m right here with you as we walk this beautiful journey called life.
