About Melissa

I’m Melissa Gordon, a Wellness Coach dedicated to helping women make the second half of their lives as exciting as the first half.

As founder of Life-SMART Coaching, my mission and purpose is to inspire women to live, work, and play happier. I’m passionate about helping women actively choose to live life on their own terms while making self-care a priority, maintaining strong personal relationships, and building a career they love.

Balancing your personal and work obligations with your own self-care can be challenging. I know! A few years ago I suddenly found myself a single mother of two with no career options on the horizon. My first priority was to my kids, ensuring they survived the change emotionally and physically healthy. But I quickly noticed that I wasn’t fairing so well, and my ability to take care of my kids as well as function effectively at work was waning.

That’s when I realized that my number one priority had to be me. I was not managing my stress during this very painful time. So I took steps to ensure that I had time in my schedule each day to exercise and relax. Eventually I was able to design a life that I love and create a balance between family and work obligations. And I can help you do the same.

With a BA in psychology and training in behavioral medicine and stress management, I bring a unique multidisciplinary approach to coaching. I’m committed to helping women create the energy to make their 40s and beyond as playful, happy, and exciting as their 20s.
