Melissa is a single mum turned DIY content creator who began documenting her life after fleeing domestic abuse with her newborn baby.
After years of isolation, navigating family and criminal court proceedings, an ADHD diagnosis and advocating for her autistic son, Melissa turned DIY into both an escape and a career, building a community around motherhood, independence and resilience.
She is passionate about raising awareness of coercive control and sexual violence within relationships, while empowering women to live independently, heal and realise they are capable of anything.
