Hi, I’m Melina! A Christian Life Coach helping moms who are tired of living on auto-pilot recenter around what matters most: faith, family, and purpose.

When I became a mom, I remember thinking: “Where’s the manual?”

Of course, no such thing exists. But the right book at the right time? It can feel like a lifeline.

That’s why I created this guide - to save you the endless Googling, reviews, and late-night group texts.

One list. Every stage. Right when you need it.
