Why Choose Inspired Insulin Coaching?
You’ve probably heard all the generic advice before—but this is different. I work with people who are ready to feel empowered, not overwhelmed. As your coach, I meet you where you are, bring clarity to the chaos, and help you move forward with confidence. Here’s how we make that happen…

Accountability
Let’s be honest—knowing what to do isn’t always the issue. It’s the follow-through that’s hard.

You’ll have someone cheering you on and keeping you on track.
She's my "Earth Angel"
When I first met Melissa, it was immediately clear that she genuinely loves working with people and has a deep passion for encouraging and uplifting others. Living with diabetes can be complex and frustrating, but Melissa is dedicated to helping her clients find ways to confidently lead fulfilling lives without letting it hold them back.
She brings warmth, respect, and compassion to every conversation, making me feel truly seen and valued—as if I’m the only person she’s working with. Beyond navigating numbers and logistics, she’s attuned to the physical and emotional challenges that diabetes presents, and
always offers thoughtful perspective.
After 26 years of navigating this journey alone, it took less than a year of working with Melissa for me to feel confident, capable, and empowered in how I manage my condition. Her unwavering positivity and belief in me shifted my mindset—I now feel in control of my diabetes, rather than at its mercy. Melissa has been a guiding light through a very challenging chapter, and I’m forever grateful that our paths crossed. She’s truly my “Earth Angel.”
Thanks to Melissa, I've reclaimed my peace of mind.
What sets Melissa apart is her heart. She walks this road personally, as a mom to a young kiddo with diabetes, and that depth of understanding is obvious in how she interacted with me. She gets it, the fear, the questions, the daily balancing act. She meets it all with compassion and clarity.
When I started working with her, I was exhausted and frustrated. But she helped me find my footing again. Her guidance was never one-size-fits-all. It was tailored, thoughtful, and rooted in real-life experience. She taught me how to manage my diabetes with confidence, not fear.
Thanks to Melissa I’ve reclaimed my peace of mind. I’m so grateful to have found someone who truly understands what this journey is like, and who walks beside you every step of the way.
Life Changing
Working with Melissa has truly been life-changing. In just a couple of months, I experienced more progress than I had in years of trying on my own. I honestly don’t know where I’d be without her unwavering support. She helped shift my mindset from “I can’t” to genuinely believing this is doable—and that shift alone made all the difference. Melissa’s energy is such a light in what used to feel like a dark and overwhelming space. Her encouragement, positivity, and deep insight have helped me feel more confident and capable than I ever imagined.
This is for you if you are ready to thrive, not just survive
Before I started working with Melissa, I felt completely overwhelmed by my diabetes diagnosis. Every day was a guessing game—what to eat, how to manage my blood sugar, and how to stay motivated. But from our very first session, everything changed. She gave me confidence, clarity, and compassion.
Through personalized guidance, practical tools, and encouragement, I’ve learned how to take control of my health in a way that feels sustainable and empowering. For the first time in years, I feel like I’m in the driver’s seat of my own wellness journey.
This isn’t just coaching—it’s life-changing support from someone who truly understands. This is for anyone who is living with diabetes who’s ready to thrive, not just survive.
