Meet Melissa

I’m Melissa Thomson - a heart-led leader, transformation coach, and wellbeing facilitator with over 20 years of experience guiding people through personal and professional growth, and bringing the joy in the process.

I’ve had the honour of building and leading organisations, navigated loss, and risen through life’s challenges with the belief that even in our hardest moments we have the power to find joy, and to lead with courage and strength.

I’m passionate about creating opportunities for you to experience and connect with your most authentic way of being in the world - to cultivate a life you love living, and to create the future you’ve always dreamed of. Whether that be through a workshop, retreat, coaching session, or course, I look forward to connecting soon!

Speaking Engagements

Heart-led Leadership is about leading with authenticity, compassion and a deep sense of purpose.

It’s not just about achieving goals or driving results - it’s about connecting with others on a human level and inspiring them to bring their best selves forward. This requires looking inward, understanding your own values and aligning actions with what you believe in.

When you lead from the heart, you create an environment where people feel valued, heard and empowered. This fosters a culture of growth, trust and a sense of shared purpose. It also creates space for creative and innovative thinking, for inspired vision and collaboration.

Heart-led leadership challenges us to move beyond transactional relationships, and systems thinking, and step into something more meaningful and transformational.

I’ve found leadership to be a journey - a practice of showing up, being vulnerable, and courageous in staying true to what you stand for.

When you lead with your heart, you don’t just inspire others - you create a ripple effect that can transform teams, communities and maybe even the world.
