About The Author

Hi, I'm Mel.

12 years ago, I was living paycheck to paycheck in banking, with big dreams but a lot of self-doubt.

Today, I've co-built two successful businesses, developed a property portfolio, and became mortgage free - all before I turned 40 a few years ago.

But here's what most people don't see: the journey between those two points was filled with uncertainty, second-guessing, and more than a few sleepless nights.

In 2013, I left banking and got into mortgage brokering, then just a couple years later took my first leap into business ownership.

What followed wasn't just a career change – it was a complete mental transformation. I had to unlearn two decades of employee thinking and rebuild my relationship with money, risk, and success from the ground up.

The biggest surprise? The hardest barriers weren't external. They were the invisible ones I'd built in my own mind.

Once I learned to overcome these mental barriers, everything changed. Not only did I build a successful mortgage business, but when I decided to pivot into digital business in 2023, I was able to create success in an entirely new industry within my first year.

After 15+ years of helping individuals with their finances, and now interacting with countless new and aspiring business owners in my digital business - I've noticed something: the challenges that held me back are the same challenges keeping other talented professionals from reaching their full potential….

That's why I created The Owner Switch Newsletter.

Every week, I share practical strategies for making the mental shifts around money and business that transform employees into owners.

Not just business owners, but true owners of their financial future.

Because here's what I know for sure: the path from employee to owner isn't about having all the answers. It's about having the right mindset and tools to find them.

Welcome to The Owner Switch community. I'm glad you're here.
