Melissa Drake

Melissa Drake is the author of The Orgasmic Entrepreneur and TranscenDANCE. An entrepreneur, proud single mama, speaker, and coach who helps individuals and businesses find solutions and go further than they imagined. When middle-age and an empty nest presented a wake-up call in the form of two concurrent chronic illnesses and a job loss after a 25-year career, she turned to social media and dancing for a reprieve. The results included recovery from a lifetime of depression, a cross-country move from the Midwest to California, full-time entrepreneurship, and a TEDx Talk, "The Dance of Collaboration.”

An intuitive life coach and NLP practitioner with a BA in Business Management, Melissa has helped hundreds of coaches and healers to connect, collaborate, and heal through living their truth, seeking new adventures, writing their stories, and empowering others.

About Melissa Drake

Instead of questioning what can and can’t be done, like-minded people are busy finding solutions and pushing you to go further than you thought possible.

Melissa is known to challenge the status quo and encourage out-of-the-box solutions. When confronted with the idea that something can’t be done, Melissa’s response is often, “Why the f*ck not?” Of course, it’s said respectfully and in jest, but the challenge remains.

When surrounded by people who are inspired, motivated, and tapped into the limitless potential of this planet (and beyond), the jarring question “Why the f*ck not?” isn’t only rhetorical, it’s unnecessary. Instead, the question represents an invitation to think differently, dig deeper, and create new possibilities.

Brainstorming new solutions is most effective in collaboration with others. Melissa values collaboration and the creation of new and fruitful relationships. To make this work effectively, she stands for authenticity, integrity, and judgment-free interactions.

In Melissa’s mind, there are no problems, only solutions. She believes nothing should be held back, and everyone should GO BIG for their beliefs.
