Doing the Best We Can
Hello, I’m

Melanie.

I’m so glad you’re here. 

 I’m a guest on Proverbs 31 Ministries’ podcast hosted by Lysa TerKeurst , along with our friend Candace Salamone,
talking about “Friendship Do’s and Dont’s” during hard times.
You can listen here and watch here.

Along with laughter, fun trips, and playing lots of Monopoly Deal, we’ve gone through the toughest season of our lives. We’ll be sharing some of our insights on how friendship helps during hard times.

 Sometimes it can be hard to know how best to support your friend going through a hard time. Check out my FREE downloadable resource, How to Help Your Hurting Friend: What to Say, What Not to Say, and What to Pray.

I’m a writing coach and editor for Christian nonfiction. You can find out more about my services here.

I wholeheartedly believe she’s the right coach for you too.”
