Australian native Melissa Ambrosini has been inspiring people to be their best selves for quite a while. Beginning her career as a model, TV presenter, actress and professional dancer, Ambrosini shifted to motivational speaking, writing and podcasting. Her health played a major role in her transition. She says, “I was trashing my body,” She states she lives a life of partying, unhealthy eating healthy and poor exercising habits. “I had a very loud inner critic and toxic thoughts in my mind. I did not value sleep or water. I did not value nature or meditation. I did not value many things. The universe took my health away from me and it made me realize how important it was. It forced me to make a shift,” she explains.

Ambrosini was hospitalized, suffering from a slew of mental and physical health issues. She came to the realization that she had to get her health back, as it was the first step on the road to true happiness. “I went and hired a health coach and a life coach and I didn’t realize how powerful that was for me. It led to me wanting to help people in a similar fashion. I was getting that support from other people and I wanted to give that back to others in the same way,” Ambrosini explains.
