Say hello to your new secret weapon.
I help overthinkers overcome ‘analysis paralysis’ so they can successfully shape, start, and complete their project goals.
Does this sound like you?
You’re an overstretched company-of-one with big goals, but you’re running on fumes and thinking wistfully about all those half-developed ideas on your boulevard of broken dreams (I know you mentally sang that last bit).
You’re worried about whether you’re doing the ‘right’ things, especially compared to your peers and competitors. Sometimes it feels like you’re missing something, because “basic” things seem like such hard work.
You’re terrified that your project will be a complete failure, which will make YOU look like a failure (especially to your old colleagues who are still in their cushty corporate cocoons).
Getting to the outcome of your project feels like a long, hard road ahead. It looks like there’s lots to do, but not enough hours in the day – plus so many variables and things that could go wrong. And all of that is… A LOT.
You have trouble trusting people because those who have offered to help you in the past have either misunderstood you or have made no efforts to understand you – OR they’ve tried to force you into someone you aren’t or something you don’t want, which is condescending and frustrating.
If it’s a yes to at least one of the above, you’re probably doing too much right now. But you definitely don’t have to do it alone.

I’m Melody, also known as the Engineer of Calm®. As a Project Coach, I specialise in helping solo business owners – like you – turn your ideas into straightforward, structured, and profitable projects that expand your influence and growth.
With over a decade of experience supporting senior leaders in all things ops and compliance, plus five years running my very own micro business, I’ve developed flexible strategies that work. Now, I’m here to share and to tailor these methods to you.
So if you’re looking for a dependable partner to keep you on track while you focus on getting your project off the ground and into action, look no further.
How I can help you.
Project coaching helps you set and achieve specific project goals by providing structure and motivational guidance, so you can get to the finish line without unnecessary stress – this mainly involves us working together to put personalised helpful systems and practices into place to simplify the process for you.
Our one-to-one project coaching sessions could work on starting your new business venture or passion project, hiring a new team member to grow your business, pivoting your business direction, and many more ideas like this.
Each action session will involve breaking down your ambitions into manageable steps and then keeping you accountable so you overcome tempting focus obstacles and shiny object syndrome.
And we will always work on one intention at a time, so you don’t get overwhelmed.
To help you, here are three affordable set service packages designed to provide the clarity, structure, and encouragement you need to take your projects from initial vision to final execution:

Why you can trust me.
I speak your language
As a solo business owner myself, I've been on both sides of the table in terms of overseeing projects and looking for the right support to help me manage them, so I know what it feels like trying to do a lot with relatively little.
You can depend on me
I always aim to ask the right questions, set expectations properly, and follow through with my promises. I also believe in quality client relationships - if I notice that you’d be better off with a different solution, I’ll be honest with you upfront.
You're in control
Running a business can be emotionally taxing, especially when you don’t have a co-founder to bounce ideas off. I’ll lend you a zero judgement pair of ears and will never force you to be someone you’re not, to fit in with other business owners.
But don't just take my word for it…
This service probably isn't right for you if...
- You’re not ready to trust the process of getting external help.
- You feel trapped by structure and organisation, and prefer complete flexibility to go with the flow.
- You aren't willing to invest the upfront time and effort in talking about your vision to create a proper strategy.
But, if you...
- suspect your project will move faster if you stop trying to micromanage everything…
- don’t know how to find support from the right sources…
- want to work with someone who genuinely cares about your wellbeing and has your back in all aspects…
…then this service is definitely for you!
