Glen Scrivener, CFL Alumni
“My name is Glen Scrivener, 12 year CFL alumni. I was informed of a study taking place via the CFLAA, under the direction of our CFLAA Executive Director. Upon contacting the office, I was greeted by Melissa who explained the general interest in the study. I informed her that I had little to no knowledge of the industry and she proceeded to ask me questions to assess my basic understanding. I really appreciated that Melissa never made me feel like a question was irrelevant and she made me feel like I had my own coach again. Melissa AKA Coach Soli has gone above and beyond in all her roles and continues to do so now years later. Melissa is compassionate and patient with a non-judgmental demeanor. Thank You Coach Soli for all you have done.”

Gemel Garrick, DJ Garrikz Music & Entertainment
“I met Melissa about 10 years ago through social media. Through the years Melissa has assisted with registering my entertainment business, teaching me marketing tactics, writing a business plan and how to search for grants and funding within the Jamaica government. She assisted with my US work visa and was always available for a conversation when I had questions. She also gave me the tools to gain clarity on issues surrounding my personal life. Melissa was always motivating me on the days that I wasn’t my best. She was always supportive of the decisions or career path I was pursuing. I am extremely grateful she came into my life when she did.”

Melissa, Dawn Luxe Events
“I was introduced to Melissa through an acquaintance regarding my event planning business. The first conversation I had with her not only was warm and welcoming she also opened up my eyes to a bunch of ideas to expand my business. Melissa was also selflessly ready and willing to work with me. While on my spiritual journey, I've been able to go to Melissa for guidance regarding dreams, coincidence, and unconventional situations that most would find to be incomprehensible. She took the time to find the resources I may have needed to better understand my situation. For someone who I've not known for too long I'm truly blessed to have connected with her and can't wait to work with her in the future.”

Janet Lavern, Founder, One Universe Movement
“Getting unstuck was no small task. I have to start with a gigantic THANK YOU Melissa for working with me these past three years. Thank you also for not giving up when I was certain I was done trying. We have the head knowledge that healing is hard work, but living it is a completely different thing, of which Melissa helped me conquered like a modern day superhero! Being my accountability source without enabling, my mentor, and resource team, she became my trusted family. Taking myself from stuck mode to motivated, was no small task, with twenty years of restorative work to finalise and building my own business. When things got overwhelming, she held space for me and was very supportive in getting me back on track. I am now in the final stages of building my business with more clarity and confidence in my competency. Thank you again!”

“I am glad that I was given the opportunity to met Melissa. I can vividly remember that summer of 2016 when this stranger walked into the park and we immediately started a conversation. Over the years as our friendship grew, she because a very good part of my support system. If I am having an off day, I will call upon Melissa and she will organically assist me in getting me back on track. When I was feeling that I needed a career change and bring forth a business proposal, Melissa always talked it out with me giving her honest, sometimes blunt opinion to the best of her judgement. Melissa never failed to respond promptly to any situation I bring to her even with her other commitments she has at hand. She has definitely fulfilled the role of a mentor.”
