MEET THE FOUNDER

Hi, I’m Melissa

For years, I helped Fortune 500 companies lead transformation at scale. I sat at strategy tables, designed culture change, and guided executives through the complexities of leading systems. But no one teaches you how to lead yourself through a system that was never built for you.

After having my second child, postpartum depression forced me to confront a truth I had long been avoiding: I wasn’t thriving. I was surviving. Therapy gave me the courage to redefine resilience not as enduring the impossible, but as having the strength to stop, heal, and rewrite the narrative.

Then came a layoff. And with it, the unraveling of a professional identity I had built over two decades. I felt lost. I searched for a space where I could process not just the practical next steps, but the emotional ones too and I couldn’t find it. The kind of community I needed didn’t exist.

So I created Malu.

Malu bridges the worlds of coaching, therapy, and organizational wisdom because transformation isn't just for companies. It’s for the person, the individual, the human. For women navigating reinvention, questioning who they’ve been told to be, and daring to define success on their own terms.

This is your space to reclaim, rebuild, and reimagine. Not as a project to fix but as a whole human ready to lead life differently.
