Meet Melissa Jane Di Mieri

Melissa Jane Di Mieri is an educator, facilitator, and wellbeing strategist with nearly four decades of leadership and business ownership across the wellness, beauty, and health sectors. A proud mother of two adult children and a devoted partner, Melissa brings lived experience of workplace mental health challenges fuelling her mission to equip organisations and teams to navigate stress, anxiety, and burnout with evidence-based practices.

Beginning her career in retail at the age of 15, she progressed from frontline service to senior leadership. Eventually, she became the owner of multiple high-volume skin clinics, managing large teams through periods of growth and change. Those years shaped her deep understanding of how workplace pressure and emotional load can impact mental health, especially in people-focused industries.

During the pandemic, Melissa used her mental health qualifications to actively support individuals and workplaces in crisis. Holding space for others in that uncertain period cemented her commitment to normalising mental health conversations and strengthening community support. It was a defining moment that reinforced her purpose: helping people feel safe, seen, and supported, whether at work, at home, or within their broader community.

Melissa is MHFA-accredited and a qualified Trainer & Assessor (TAE40116). She holds a Certificate IV in Mental Health, a Diploma of Health Science and is a Registered Nutritionist, complemented by further fitness and wellness credentials with a mindfulness focus. She is presently completing a Bachelor of Psychological Science and intends to progress to a master’s study
