It's time to feel CREATIVELY ALIVE in your business
You know your work matters—but every time you think about sharing yourself, your business and your offerings...
Design and canva feels overwhelming and stops you in your tracks.
You spend hours tweaking your designs, second guessing everything, and end up posting nothing at all.
You feel you have outgrown your brand, but feel stuck and unsure how to evolve it yourself without starting from scratch or outsourcing again
You get tired of waiting for support or the perfect time. Tech and Design feel like barriers between you and showing up.
Here is the thing ...
Design isn’t just a skill. It’s your creative freedom.
When you know how to bring your ideas to life—without waiting for a designer, the perfect timing, or someone else’s permission—you unlock a whole new level of freedom in your business.
I don’t just teach Canva. I teach you how to trust your creative voice, build your brand with soul, and move confidently as your ideas evolve.
What if learning Canva and being able to do your design work wasn’t just about saving money.... But about reclaiming your creative freedom?

No more playing small because the tech felt hard.
No more pushing your offers to "someday."
This is about taking back the radical responsibility of your brand, your ideas, your momentum.
Because you deserve to feel empowered and creatively alive in your business.

Hi I'm Mel.O
I believe that knowing how to bring your ideas to life is a form of liberation.
I teach Canva not just as a tool—but as a portal to saying YES to yourself.
Because when you learn to design your own brand, your offers, your voice — you stop waiting.....
... Waiting for permission.
... Waiting for the “right time.”
... Waiting to feel brave enough.
You don’t need to wait.
You just need a safe space to begin.
And that’s what I offer:
A space to learn, to play, to express.
A space to design your way into deeper alignment
A space where your visibility becomes a joyful, empowered act of freedom.

So why trust me, Mel?
Allow me to share a little of my story!
My upbringing was an experience of contrasts. My mum was my fierce champion, fighting for my freedom and independence at every turn. My dad, on the other hand, was afraid of the world. He tried to shield me from it by stifling my independence—condemning friendships, dismissing emotions, ignoring milestones like birthdays, and refusing to teach me essential life skills like driving or getting a job. Yet, I fought back with a willpower that surprised even me, fueled by my mum’s unwavering support. That journey shaped me deeply. It’s why I hold such a profound desire to help others feel heard, held, and capable of living their most passionate lives—I value and admire good communication skills, support networks and safe spaces in which it feels safe to be seen, as I know these are what kept me moving forward towards my truth.
The Journey
For much of my life, I lived in the shadow of silence. As a child, my voice was not welcome. If I showed emotion, my father would storm out, calling my mother and me “mad women.” If I spoke while he watched TV or sat in the room, I was shushed. I wasn’t allowed to have friends over or spend time with them outside of school. When I sang Christmas carols, I was told, “If you can’t sing, don’t sing.” So, I stopped using my voice, around his presence, it no longer felt safe or welcomed to do so. It didn't feel safe to express myself in my own home. But my heart still needed to express itself. I turned to art and writing, pouring my emotions onto pages and canvases. Later in high school, I found photography - a powerful way to see others and, in turn, see myself & Graphic design my happy place where I became CREATIVELY ALIVE and empowered as I had an outlet and skills to bring my ideas to life.
I’ve spent my life reclaiming my voice, actively learning about self and putting myself in challenging but exhilirating and creatively alive experiences and now I help others do the same. Through my experiences and qualifications in:
❤ Holistic Integrated Creative Arts Therapy & Holistic Counselling – Healing through creative expression, just as I did.
❤ Human Design Coaching – Understanding the energy that makes you uniquely you.
❤ Being an Primary school educator for 20 years, I've learnt how to deliver and guide in deep and profound way. Teaching Art and Design for the past 10 years
❤ 250hr Yoga Teacher Training – Anchoring into calm strength, guiding others to feel safe in their own presence, a deep philosophy and framework of self understanding and love
❤ Photography, Art & Design– Helping people see themselves through my lens, creativity and design
❤ Having my own Podcast "Grab your keys and go" with my Best Friend, in which I practice sharing my voice, thoughts and feelings weekly
❤ Attending a weekly Womens circle which has given me so many rich opportunities to share my truth, grow and hold space for others.
❤ Ongoing life long learner in small business courses, photography and art short courses
❤ Owner of a variety of past small businesses in Custom Art, Handmade Jewelry and Signature creations
Through all of this, I’ve built a business and life rooted in freedom, creativity, deep connection and self-expression. I'd love to extend this joy and empowerment of creative freedom to you through these courses.
"Visibility isn’t just about strategy—it’s about healing what’s kept us hidden and learning to feel safe being seen. I live and work in the space of freedom, guided by a deep love of lifelong learning that keeps me aligned, energised, evolving, and creatively alive"
LOVE NOTES
from some of my heart led tribe
Hey there dear Heart Led,
I see you.
You—who pour love into everything you create.
You—who care more about connection than algorithms.
You—who dream deeply, serve soulfully, and want your business to feel like you.
And I know something else, too.
You’re holding powerful ideas.
Big, beautiful visions.
The kind of offerings that change lives—not because they’re flashy, but because they’re true.
But somewhere between the dream and the doing, it’s easy to get stuck.
You second guess your designs.
You wait for the “right” moment.
You want freedom—but you don’t want to hustle.
Here’s what I want you to know....
Learning design isn’t about looking good.
It’s about feeling free.
Free to express yourself.
Free to bring your ideas to life the moment they land.
Free to show up consistently, confidently, and in alignment with your values—without needing to outsource your voice or wait for permission.
That’s why I created these courses.
Not just to teach you Canva shortcuts (though there are plenty!)—
But to give you the tools and confidence to take creative control of your business, your brand, and your visibility.
The world needs your message.
The people you’re here to serve are already searching for you.
And your ideas? They’re worth building momentum around.
So if you’re ready to stop hiding behind fear, perfectionism, or “not being a designer”—
If you’re ready to honour your voice, take up space, and bring your gifts forward with clarity and joy—
Then say yes to this invitation.
Say yes to learning the skills.
Say yes to showing up with intention.
Say yes to your own creative freedom.
I’m right here beside you.
Let’s light the way together.
With love and belief in your magic, Mel.O xoxox
