Hey there, lovely!

​

Wow, so much can change in just a year, and my life has transformed in ways I never expected! 

​

I’m excited to share that I’ve officially become a Parent-Carer and a Home Educator.

 

This has shifted my priorities, bringing my kids to the forefront and making them my primary focus. 

​

It took me a while to figure out what to do with 'Mel Wrote It.' I realised that Business Awards Copywriting isn't my passion, and I kept going for my clients, but my heart wasn't in it.

 

I stumbled into it when a friend asked for some copywriting help back in 2021 and have been navigating it for over three years with mixed results, recurring autistic burnout and pushing sh*t uphill to try and make it work, but the love isn't there for me.

​

There was a point when I started dreading the thought of checking my inbox for new inquiries about awards submissions. That’s when I knew it was time for a change, allowing myself to surrender and act accordingly.

 

With enough time between to filter out whether that feeling was just numbness from burnout or something deeper - a misalignment!

​

So, I’m being open and honest about my next steps and where I want to invest my energy:

​

I'm combining my background in Lived Experience Consulting, Advocacy and Policy Development (formerly under The Context Expert) under the Mel Wrote It brand. 

​

I have renewed knowledge, some lessons, and stories to share from the past year, and I'm excited about what's next (I'm open to whatever that ends up being, which is evolving). 

​

Until we chat again, I'm probably on a kid-friendly bushwalk or driving to our next homeschool excursion, so stick around if that's your jam, as I'll be sharing some neuro-affirming and accidental homeschooling adventures soon. 

​

Mel xx
