"Mel is a fantastic coach! The workshop was just full of tips and tricks I never would have come up with by myself. It’s the only workshop I’ve attended that I would 100% recommend, every word she said was a golden nugget of wisdom."

Doirann Gordon, PhD Student, University of Edinburgh

“The moment Mel walks into the room, it is clear that she practices what she preaches. She is authentic, interactive and worked constructively and with clarity to improve my style. I attended Mel’s workshops and spent a number of 1:1 coaching sessions with Mel working on a specific pitch, then on my general pitching technique. This coaching has made sharing complex information much clearer, I deliver it with more confidence and I sound more credible. Attending Mel’s workshops and 1:1 coaching is undoubtedly the single best personal development I have done to benefit my business & career.”
