    Chapter 29 | Creating Freedom + Spaciousness with Melissa Moffet, Empowerment Coach

    Chapter 29 | Creating Freedom + Spaciousness with Melissa Moffet, Empowerment Coach

    Tune in this week as I welcome one of my favorite online teachers and empowerment coach, Melissa Moffet! Her energy, offerings, and business mindset is incredibly inspiring and motivational and I'm excited for you to learn more about her. In this episode, we cover how Melissa uprooted her career path as an engineer and found herself selling courses online after building a supportive and engaging community based in her life experiences and things that she finds helpful on her life journey. We talk on what led her to be where she is today and about how she believes that business can be for monetary gain, but should stem from genuine help for people as well - this is one thing she definitely does. 
    With courses and events based around mindfulness, leadership, money, and personal growth, Melissa has created a life for herself that is true to her, brings her success, and helps others become more successful as well. We touch on various ways of staying grounded in your journey and how that looks different for everyone, but she stresses the importance of finding what centers you and suggests you use it often. I hope you enjoy this week's chat as much as I did and definitely suggest that you seek Melissa out online. On her website, www.melissamoffet.com, she has many free offerings (PDFs, guides, workbooks), as well as her first "Worthy" eCourse, and other money and growth masterclasses in the works! 
    Find Melissa on IG @Melissa.moffet or check out her podcast Air + Earth.

We go on to discuss the future of the green beauty industry and his wildest dreams for Nini Organics - it's all about manifesting!
