Melissa Darnell
Collaborative Strategy Design, Facilitation, Training
For over 25 years, Melissa (she/her/hers) has devoted her life to the art of community building. With a Master's in Social Work and a deep passion for human potential, she specializes in creating the magical spaces where people can discover what truly matters to them and find powerful ways to pursue it together.
Her work is an invitation—to listen, to dream, and to collaborate in ways that transform both individuals and communities. Through training, coaching, and facilitation, she builds community capacity by helping groups uncover their inherent strengths and develop the skills to turn their collective vision into reality. Melissa believes that when people connect authentically and align their aspirations, extraordinary things become possible.
Melissa's “Why”:
My work is fueled by a profound love for people and the planet, and a sacred responsibility to contribute to collective healing and possibility. I'm passionate about creating spaces where everyone is recognized as an expert on their own experiences, where diverse voices are honored, and where discovery becomes a playful, transformative journey of collective liberation.
Where else you’ll find Melissa:
If you get an out of office reply from me, it’s quite likely I can be found on public lands wherever there is a trail to hike, a river to float, or wildflowers to photograph.
