I know what it feels like to wear every crown — mother, CEO, widow, wife, founder, fixer — while quietly wondering who I was outside of the roles.

I’ve rebuilt my life from the ashes of grief, from the shadows of survival, and from the limitations others tried to place on my light. And now?

I help powerful women like you do the same — without apology and without delay.

I’m Dr. Melissa Bedford, as known as The Purpose Profitess® — a life and business strategist, transformational coach, speaker, and soul-led CEO who believes women shouldn’t have to choose between purpose, power, and profit.

I’m the founder of an 8-figure behavioral health agency I’ve led for over a decade, and the creator of transformational coaching experiences like Be U, Boss Up, and my signature program From Cuffed to Crowned™— designed for women ready to stop shrinking and start building the legacy they were born to carry.

But titles don’t tell the whole story.I’m a woman who rose from extreme poverty. A therapist-turned-visionary who led thousands through healing but had to reclaim her own identity after the death of my husband of 31 years.

A mother. A newlywed. A multi-passionate creator. A TV host. A TedX and International Speaker. A Broadway Producer. A purpose PROFITess.

And I’m here to remind you: You’re not stuck — you’re being summoned. Summoned to stop dimming your light. To stop second-guessing your vision. To build what God placed in you before the world told you to play small. This is about more than business. This is about becoming.

Your queendom. Your crown. Your call.
