My name is Melissa and I became debt-free so I could pursue my dream of meeting Elton John!
My dream, since my very first concert in 1992 has been to meet him in person!

The dream hasn’t come true yet – but I’m closer to it being realized NOW that I have ever been.

I’m a Christian, wife, mom, dog owner, volunteer, sports fanatic, and weather nerd. My three favorite food groups are coffee, carbs, and cookies and although I don’t really enjoy exercising, you can find me out riding a bike most mornings. I love to travel – especially to see Elton John in concert! My favorite city to travel to is NYC.
We live near the beach but my favorite vacation spot is the NC mountains.

I’m a speaker and author with a mission to motivate, inspire, and provide actionable steps for people to pursue their dreams.

My husband and I paid off over $43,000 of debt in less then 4 years. Three years, eight months and 27 days to be exact.

How? God did it.
I firmly believe and can attest to the things that happened in our life during that time that God was a part of our story. He IS a part of our story.

God has given us ONE life, one purpose.

I believe that we are meant to live extraordinary lives.
I believe that we are meant to live life on purpose.
I believe that if we have faith as small as a grain of mustard, that anything is possible.  (Matthew 17:20)

I know that our dreams matter and we are meant to pursue them.

I share my story to inspire and motivate others and teach lessons through storytelling.
