    Melody Garner

    Melody will walk you through her journey while highlighting the importance of how mentors and being a mentor has helped her embrace her power. Her power has given her the ability to manage change, deal with extreme situations, and become the sassy, classy, and a (bit) bad-Assy female she is today. Come and be inspired to swallow the lump and jump into your life because nothing is stopping you but air and fear!
