ABOUT

Hi, I’m Melissa!

I’m the founder of The Love Revival, a transformative movement dedicated to Awakening Love in the most “unlovable places”—within the body, psyche, sex, and relationships.

As a VITA™ certified Sex, Love, and Relationship coach, I specialize in Female Sexuality and Relationship Transformation, helping women and couples restore erotic intimacy, deepen their connection, and create lives and relationships that turn them on from the inside out.

I’m deeply committed to guiding my clients into their most authentic sexual expression and power through my world class methods. Together, we alchemize pain, numbness, and habitual patterns, transforming them into lasting, fulfilling love. My work is a fusion of deep somatic and energetic healing, spirituality, and practical tools that empower you to be liberated by love.

My Personal Healing Journey

My path began in a seemingly different world—while pursuing a career in modeling. I was obsessed with achieving external perfection: calorie counting, striving to be skinnier, and constantly comparing myself to supermodels. But despite my external success, I felt hollow inside—disconnected from my body and my true self.

In the midst of this struggle, I stumbled upon You Can Heal Your Life by Louise L. Hay, which opened the door to personal development and a new way of living. Shortly after, I faced a pivotal choice: continue pursuing my modeling career and relocate to New York City or stay in San Diego to follow my growing passion for yoga and holistic healing. I chose to stay, and during a hot yoga class, a life-altering realization hit me: “It’s not about how it looks, it’s about how it feels.”

This insight became my healing mantra, leading me to true freedom and confidence from within. After earning my Yoga Teacher Certification and becoming a certified Holistic Health Coach, I began guiding women through their own healing journeys—helping them reconnect with their bodies and reclaim their confidence.

The Evolution into Sacred Sexuality

While working with women on body image and food issues, I discovered that so many of us carry deep wounds from childhood and sexual trauma, leading to disconnection from our bodies. My desire to heal from my own sexual trauma and to not rely on a vibrator to orgasm led me to the world of Tantra, sacred sexuality, and feminine embodiment work.

I trained under world-renowned Tantra expert Layla Martin and became certified in the VITA™ Method for sex, love, and relationships. Through this journey, I moved from numbness and dependence on external tools for pleasure to experiencing transcendental pleasure and radical, unapologetic self-expression in my relationships.

On Healing While In Relationship

As you know by now, Alex is my high school sweetheart. We started dating in 2009 - when I was 17, and he was 18. This means I’ve been blessed to have him by my side for the majority of my healing journey.

He has been by my side, through all the 1,000 different women I have been and continue to be as I shed, evolve, and be reborn anew. This keeps him on him toes, present with who I currently am and excited for the next version of me.

Through our relationship so much healing has taken place. For the longest time people would ask us “when are you two getting married?” To my response, “in no hurry…'“ fast forward 10 years and begin to question why I was so afraid of commitment and marriage - even though I knew he was my person. This manifested in me self sabotaging myself and the relationship - we broke up three different times prior to me being ALL IN… however my fear of commitment was at the root of it all. Eventually I was able to face this fear of commitment in the face and heal from the several ruptures that had taken place in our relationship.

As our relationship has grown and evolved, so have our roles in our relationship. With the tools I use we’ve been able to alchemize any fear, distance, resentment, criticism and pain into love, unity, healing, intimacy, connection, and appreciation for one another.

Today

Now, I’m on a mission to help women and couples create lasting, passionate, and fulfilling relationships. Through private coaching, online programs, The Love Revival podcast, and my Instagram community, I guide you to reignite your passion, restore trust, and experience a love that’s deeply connected and wildly fulfilling.

As a wife of nearly 4 years and partner to my high school sweetheart of 15 years, I know firsthand the beauty and challenges of long-term love. I bring this personal wisdom into my coaching practice, where I empower others to nurture their relationships holistically—mind, body, and spirit.
