Hello, world, welcome to discover your talent, do what you love.

who's discovered their talents to do work they love to create a life of success, satisfaction,

Melanie Curtis is the life coach for people who don't like life coaches.

Well, Melanie, that's a pithy summary of your career.

Tell our listeners around the world what you're engaged in now that has you excited and motivated, if you would, please. I love that my pithy little bio is of use
