Hi, i’m melitta
I'm a strengths coach, leadership practitioner, mum of two girls, and the founder of Strengths.
For more than twenty years I've worked with leaders and executive teams, helping them understand what drives behaviour, confidence, performance and relationships.
But some of the most important lessons I've learned haven't come from boardrooms.
They've come from raising my daughters.
Like many parents, I've watched friendship dynamics become complicated. I've seen confidence wobble. I've listened to the questions, worries and emotions that can emerge during the tween years.
What changed everything for us was strengths.
Not because strengths fixed anything.
But because they gave us a shared language.
A way to understand motivation, confidence, emotions and difference without judgement.
A way to move from reacting to understanding.
A way to stay connected when life felt messy.
Today, I bring together two worlds:
My professional experience helping people understand human behaviour and performance.
And my personal experience as a mum navigating the realities of raising tween girls.
My hope is simple:
To help girls understand who they are, trust themselves more deeply, and build confidence that comes from within.
And to help mums feel more equipped, connected and supported along the way.
My Belief
Confidence isn't something we give girls.
It's something we help them discover.
Because when a girl understands who she is, she can navigate almost anything.
