It’s been five years since Melissa stopped drinking alcohol, and life has transformed completely. She now navigates anxiety and stress by managing her mental health in a much healthier way, recognizing triggers without letting them take over. When she wakes up in a dark place, she dives deep into her life, getting radically honest with herself. To truly evolve, you have to be willing to do the work, change, and tap into what brings you joy and a strong sense of self. Instead of forcing things, it’s about connecting to source, remembering that you’re the creator of your life. Melissa suggests making a "joy list" and returning to those things whenever you feel disconnected. She’s discovered what elevates her mood without spiking anxiety and even has a favorite go-to for making non-alcoholic drinks.

In this solo episode, Melissa explores the concept of change and our natural resistance to it. She reflects on her recent work with a transformation coach which has led to profound insights, emphasizing that true transformation only occurs when we confront and move through challenges and learn to focus our energy on what fuels us. She discusses the importance of being radically transparent with self, especially when you start to feel disconnected or drained. This self-awareness is crucial for identifying what isn't working and when it’s necessary to make changes. Living in a neutral, easeful state is the goal, and it requires understanding what shines your light and what dims it. Remember, you're in the driver's seat of your life. Evaluate how you spend your day, even with the small things, and follow what feels good to cultivate happiness. Change is a constant, and it's essential to listen to the signs as they guide your path.Limited Time Offer: Use code movewithheart when you sign up for a monthly membership to get your first month FREE on melissawoodhealth.com.Use code MWH25 for 25% OFF your first month’s supply at seed.com/mwhTo work with Melissa’s energy coach, Heath Ellis, reach out to him at hello@thrivetransformation.co or follow him at @heathellis_transformation and check out his work at thrivetransformation.co.Melissa Wood-Tepperberg, founder of MWH and host of the Move With Heart Podcast, is a meditation teacher, certified yoga and pilates instructor, certified health coach, and beloved by the diverse community she’s cultivated through her unique approach to fitness and mindfulness over the years.

In this solo episode, Melissa explores how we can all learn to deeply trust ourselves, no matter what questions or challenges life presents. Inspired by a Q&A from Instagram, she shares insights on building a strong relationship with yourself, allowing you to show up as the person you aspire to be each day. Melissa emphasizes that doubt is inevitable, but instead of going opinion shopping, we should sit with it, look inside ourselves, and let the answers reveal themselves. If overwhelm hits, it’s ok—own it and don’t hesitate to ask for help. Radical transparency is essential to cultivating trust—both within yourself and in your relationships, because without self-trust, trusting others becomes impossible. When you do find clarity, move forward with confidence. Melissa encourages us to follow our instincts when change is necessary and to use moments of clarity as fuel for growth.

In this fascinating episode, Melissa sits down with Bill McGowan, Founder and CEO of Clarity Media Group, to explore the art of communication. Bill breaks down how the way we speak in everyday situations profoundly impacts those we interact with. He highlights that public speaking is often the number one fear for most people, but this can be alleviated through breathing techniques and having a clear direction for your message. Melissa reflects on her transformative experience with Bill when she sought his expertise to prepare for officiating the wedding of her dear friends, Simon Huck and Phil Riportella. That single session forever changed the way she speaks and communicates. Together, they discuss how in interviews, you can steer the conversation in your desired direction without needing to answer questions exactly as they are posed. They also discuss the common patterns in human language, the psychology behind filler words, and the importance of listening with genuine intent—valuable tools for anyone tuning in.Limited Time Offer: Use code movewithheart when you sign up for a monthly membership to get your first month FREE.Visit Ritual.com/movewithheart and 25% off your first month of Ritual will automatically be applied at checkout.Use code Melissa25 for 25% off CBDistillery at www.cbdistillery.com/melissaMelissa Wood-Tepperberg, founder of MWH and host of the Move With Heart Podcast, is a meditation teacher, certified yoga and pilates instructor, certified health coach, and beloved by the diverse community she’s cultivated through her unique approach to fitness and mindfulness over the years.
