Carline Bejin-Dye left her successful career of 15 years in corporate America to pursue a life she could be passionate about.

With a combination of laser coaching, mindset and relaxation exercises, women are able to complete life-changing journeys which enables them to live with intention, to listen to their inner voice, speak their truth, learn how to love themselves, and stop letting their situation define who they are.

Carline’s words of wisdom to go from being hopeless to being more than capable of walking into your purpose.


Carline’s Golden Phrases:
You may hate me right now but you are going to love me when you are able to get up, walk, run and were able to get through this.
As a mom you put your children first in everything you do and you don’t pay attention to what’s going on with yourself.
It’s not about having that perfect plan where nothing will ever go wrong because things will go wrong, but when you have that plan in place you know where to pick up from.
When you look at competition it’s not about how they do it, it’s about who they are because not everybody will resonate with you.
I had to come to the realization that whoever relates to me will resonate with me and who ever doesn’t, wont.
When I was laid off, I felt like I failed even though it wasn’t my fault. One of the things that I realized is that you cannot go through things by yourself; you have to surround yourself with positive like-minded people.
Fail forward! Let yourself fail so that you can get there.

Melina had a stellar career in corporate America, earning six figures as an advertising executive when she realized that working for the Fortune 100 corporation was not her destined path. Melina Bliss is a Wholistic Enlightenment Coach, an Intuitive Vibrational Guide, and a speaker with a passion for connecting people of all ages with their authentic selves, by unleashing their vibrational flow. Since leaving the corporate scene 13 years ago she has been coaching and guiding clients, as well as finding a creative outlet in web design and image creation. Melina’s company is Momental Bliss, focuses on connecting our innate creativity, compassion, and connectivity….one moment, one vibration at a time. An additional avenue in Melina’s spectrum of offerings entails providing Business Image Enhancement services that facilitate her assisting them in elevating their business image to the next level. You can join Melina on her Secret Super Power Hour Live Blog Talk Radio Show. While Melina wears many hats, the most joyful role that she is privileged to have, is being a single mother to two amazing young boys. One of her sons is special needs; she is happily committed to homeschooling them both. Melina doesn’t just teach and guide her children, she learns from their wise and loving tutelage as well.

Main Points:
Melina shares her story and how she uses her gifts to fulfill her purpose.
Making the transition from earning 6 figures to being her own boss.
Tapping into your intuitive nature.
The Secret Super Power Hour and how you can turn your power into a business.
Instilling the awareness of secret super powers into your children to better equip them for life.
Your BUT is not going to get you anywhere! How your language affects what you receive.

Golden Phrases:
We are all connected through energy; universally and we all have this intuitive nature within us.
Part of your secret super power is your intuitive nature and the ability to recognize the tiny little things that we overlook, dismiss, or take for granted; but instead we need embrace them so that they will give power to us.
When you use the word BUT you are putting the brakes on what YOU can receive as well as on what people can receive from you because that BUT stops everything.
Be conscious of that one little word, “but”, and the power it has. Try making that one little word go away so that so much more will come your way.
Release the whole “I don’t feel capable that I can do it” mentality because the language that you are putting out into the universe is saying, “I am not ready”.
Stop in the moment the minute you are having an overwhelming or nagging feeling, and breathe into it. Ask your God or universe to bring you guidance to follow your intuitive nature.
Silence is an answer, it is your opportunity to really sink in and get yourself ready. And after you work through the silence, then the answers will start to flow.

Erica’s Golden Phrases:
You know how they say when you go through a divorce your mourning the loss of something. That’s how I felt, I thought I was going to die from the pain and the separation; I just wanted to be normal again.
I put more fears in my mind by comparing myself to others and not really understanding my power and gift.
We have a tendency to overlook what comes natural to us and we discount it because being that it is so natural, we don’t have to work for it.
Once I got out of “my story” I was able to stand on that story knowing that I got through it so that I can help someone else get through it.
Tapping into your greatness requires you to make the decision and just do it. Believe in yourself first and know that you have what it takes or God wouldn’t have given you those gifts.
