Welcome!

I’m Melissa, with over 10 years of experience in Recruitment and HR, I have developed a deep passion for helping people. As a mother of a toddler myself, I understand firsthand the challenges and overwhelm that come with returning to work after a break. My personal experience highlighted the need for dedicated support during this transition, inspiring me to establish Transition Hub Coaching.

At Transition Hub Coaching, I combine my extensive professional background with a heartfelt commitment to supporting individuals who are at a career transition period ranging from looking for a new role, wanting a promotion and also a keen focus on parents re-entering the workforce. My mission is to provide the guidance and encouragement I wished I had during my career as well as my own return to work after maternity leave.

I aim to ensure others can confidently and successfully navigate this important phase of their lives. Let's work together to achieve a balanced and fulfilling career and family life.

Approach

Focusing on setting clear, achievable goals and envisioning a fulfilling future. I begin by understanding your unique aspirations and challenges through a comprehensive initial assessment. Together, we identify short-term and long-term career and personal goals that align with your values, personal and family needs.

I help you develop a positive mindset and build confidence, encouraging you to envision and strive for a balanced and satisfying future. Through regular check-ins and ongoing support, I ensure you will stay motivated, accountable, and on track to achieve your desired outcomes.

Testimonials

  • "Through my coaching with Melissa I have navigated an international move with two small children and managed to carve some time into the chaos of day-to-day life just for me. Through her calm, clear and thought-provoking coaching I was able to see that life wasn't just about getting one thing done after another: I am also a priority and the impact my wellbeing has on my family is incredible. Thanks Melissa - I'm still meditating and breathing fresh air, and everyone is better for it.”

  • "Before starting my coaching journey with Melissa I was at a crossroads. I hadn't realised how much self-confidence I had lost and how much doubt had developed, but working with Melissa gave me the license to explore my goals and motivations, as well as redefining the direction that I wanted to go towards in a neutral environment. I truly appreciated Melissa's structure and approach to the coaching; any probing was done with care and she was always able to help me build simple but effective targets. As a result, I felt empowered to reach out to my network and successfully gained a new trainee position in a completely different industry. Although I only had six sessions with Melissa, I truly feel that my confidence has returned. I'm able to identify what drives me, and the things that I should attract and avoid, and most importantly, I feel better equipped to take action. I would recommend Melissa to anyone who feels stuck in life or career, and hoping to refocus and regain their power.

  • "I worked with Melissa over the past few months. Before working with Melissa, I was very disorganised and didn't really have a focus or a specific area to work on. I was however very interested in finding some improvement to my life . Melissa helped me think about different key areas for focus in my life and made me aware of some behaviours within some of the areas that I hadn't been aware of. As a result, I was able to make some shifts in behaviour and be more conscious of negative patterns of behaviour . I would definitely recommend Melissa to anyone looking to improve their quality of life and find some greater purpose to daily living. Working with Melissa was really illuminating. She is very calm and patient and really helped me to see things more clearly, I am very grateful to her and found the whole process extremely enlightening."

  • "I want to thank Melissa for the time we spent together, during our sessions she helped me to gain total clarity on what it was I felt I was missing and what I was able to focus on to help me achieve the goals I have for myself. It felt as thought I had a consistent accountability partner who helped me decipher what it was I needed to do to achieve what sometimes felt like mammoth tasks. Melissa did this by helping me work through things in a methodical order, breaking them down into smaller chunks which removed the angst I was feeling and helped me produced incremental changes and successes ... Thank you Melissa for helping me gain clarity and momentum where I was lacking it previously!

  • I worked with Melissa over the past couple of months and has been the best decision and investment, I cannot thank Melissa enough for all the hours she’s spent with me helping me refocus and realign my dreams and turning them into reality. Before working with Melissa I hit a crossroad which I had been stuck at for a while. I didn’t know where to go next in my career where I felt unfulfilled in my job but with plans of wanting to start a family ... We covered what my values are and what truly provides me joy. With worries discussed, and a plan put in place. I no longer have such resentment towards work and feel more in control of my career pathway and next chapter in life. I would 100% definitely recommend Melissa."

  • "I worked with Melissa for 5 months over 6 sessions focusing on a number of areas including creativity and mainly coaching around career aspirations. Before working with Melissa, I was struggling to see the possibilities beyond my current situation and seeking support with what was practically possible with my skills set. Melissa has beyond helped me in a number of ways with this .... As a result, I was able to feel confident about approaching a new career, identify strong transferrable skills and build a strong plan to bring this into fruition. I would unreservedly recommend Melissa to anyone looking to change theire career following motherhood, review life goals in relation to job expectations and consider personal wellbeing. Working with Melissa was life changing, there are things I have be able to consider that i never knew were possible prior to our sessions. The future is beyond bright and full of endless possibilities!"
