Episode 39

Guest Melissa Deally – Your Health is Important – Don’t Wait for Your Wakeup Call! | HR39

Melissa is a registered health coach and an integrated health practitioner.  Originally employed as a business executive in the hotel industry, getting let go when big fish bought little fish and then the reality of both daughters suffering concussions from sports injuries caused her to reassess priorities and refocus on a different journey; one that has led her to her current work. 

As the quote on the banner that sits behind her in her home office reminds us “Health isn’t everything but without it, everything else is nothing.”  Helping others improve their health journeys has become her life’s passion and purpose.  And it shows! Words like new found energy, gut health, and dealing with brain fogginess certainly caught my attention! 

A recent winner of the Quality Care Award, Melissa shares her wisdom through her podcast Don’t Wait for Your Wakeup Call!, her YouTube channel Your Guided Health Journey, and the programs she offers. She joins us today to share some of those invaluable health tips; tips meant to help each of us on our own health journeys.  

About the Guest – Melissa Deally

Melissa is an Integrative Health Practitioner, Registered Health Coach, Speaker, and host of her podcast Don’t Wait for Your Wake Up Call and her YouTube channel Your Guided Health Journey

Melissa works with her clients to better understand what might be creating health challenges. She helps get to the cause of the health issue and then creates a personalized program - a guided journey back to a vibrant, thriving, perfectly balanced state of wellbeing, mind, body, and soul – an attainable goal well worth every effort to achieve.  As Melissa notes, this elemental wellbeing is our birthright, deeply foundational to everything we could ever want in life, the solution to most if not all of the problems we are experiencing on every level.

She asks, “Do you keep getting told nothing is wrong with you or that they don't know what is wrong with you?” or are you “Tired of the only option being offered is a drug that you have to take for the rest of your life?”.  She shares “Well that was me….my migraines had become so frequent, and all my doctor offered was more drugs. I wanted to know WHY my migraines were suddenly more frequent. When I turned to holistic health, I was able to do a lab test that showed my hormones out of balance. When I fixed that, my migraines went away.” And, “When my 6-year-old daughter got tummy aches every day, I was told ‘all little girls get tummy aches, she’ll grow out of it’ except there was no answer as to how long that would take. Again, I turned to functional medicine labs, and learned she was intolerant to gluten and dairy, so we removed those and voila! The tummy aches were gone!”


Melissa’s experiences taught her that there are often answers that traditional

medicine doesn’t provide. There are other solutions, and now, as an integrative

health practitioner, she helps many people who are struggling and looking for

another way.


Some of the common challenges she can help with are:

➤ Getting to the root cause of your health issues

➤ Removing toxicities

➤ Boosting deficiencies to help your body come back into balance so that it can

heal itself, and give you newfound energy, and a renewed joy of life.


She uses functional medicine labs that get mailed to your home and help

"see" what is going on inside your body and then provides a personal

wellness protocol to guide your healing journey.


We haven't been taught the importance of managing stress, optimizing sleep, or

what we put in our mouths.


AND - we have a food industry that doesn’t care about our health and a health

industry that doesn’t care about our food. This has resulted in all the chronic

illness people are struggling with today that often leave them "less

than".


Could this be you?

Exhausted with no energy for your kids at the end of the day

Brain fog and memory issues that slow your productivity

Taking drugs that cause other symptoms, and often weight gain

Suffering mood swings that steal your joy in life


If any of these things resonate with you – or you have unanswered health

struggles, message Melissa to book a COMPLIMENTARY 30 minute session. She will

discuss your health struggle and how she can best support you with her

programs.
