A special invitation for those who want to clarify their sense of direction so they can make the impact they know they can make

Thank you for considering this program, which culminated in over ten years of coaching and teaching practice. When my clients discover and align their core values with their daily habits, personal and professional relationships, and personal vision, I have found that they re-ignite a sense of purpose in life. As a result, they increase their productivity with less stress and improve their emotional and physical health. They are more creative, have more ease in their daily lives, and sleep better!

Many before you have stepped onto a new path by getting to the root of who and how they are with lives full of commitments—family, social, self-care, and even spiritual health.

The Greater Purpose Blueprint stands out from other online coaching programs because it teaches how to objectively examine your life with my signature method adapted from actor training called the “Get Real System.” As a theatre artist and coach, I teach you how to become aware of how you show up in the world and are perceived by others.

I’ve matched this level of examining life’s circumstances, patterns, and stories with mindfulness practices that enhance your understanding of your experience, which I call “Notice the Now.” As a certified yoga teacher and embodiment trainer, I give you practices that take no more than ten to fifteen minutes to complete. You’ll learn to observe your experiences to take meaningful action in your life.

My expertise as a performance teacher, embodied voice and speech trainer, yoga teacher, and theatre director equips me with a unique skill set as a coach. I listen deeply, interpret vocal cues in my client’s speech, take a fuller picture of their situation to call out what’s before them and inspire them to take action to their next best step. I don’t speak to my clients in corporate lingo. If you work with me, I’ll talk to you as if we are in the neighborhood coffee shop— real talk for real people.

You’ll understand how you got to where you are (with zero judgment), realize what you need to release by either setting clear boundaries or substituting poor habits with life-optimizing habits and learn how to take action on the next best steps to honor your true purpose.

You’ll be able to let go of toxic mindsets, unnecessary tasks, and perfectionistic behaviors without falling short of your responsibilities to others. In fact, you’ll become more productive by lightening your load.

The world needs your greatest gift—a confident and clear YOU!

All the details are on this page. I look forward to meeting you!

In appreciation,
Melissa Hurt

Testimonial

My energy level before the program was low and nonproductive.

Now I feel free. I’m not tied down to suffering or feeling lost anymore. I’m clear on who I am and what I need to do to be the best version of myself. I know how that’s not only going to impact my career for the better, but also my personal life and my work as a mom.

Meet Your Guide

Hi, I’m Melissa! I founded The Greater Purpose Blueprint because I'm on a mission to teach the mindset tools that create a fruitful life in all ways— mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. The material I teach in this program is the same that transformed my life from one filled with anxiety into one full of meaning, purpose, and insightful action.

After losing myself while earning two graduate degrees and then finding myself in embodied voice and yoga practices, I realized that a great life is more than what's on your resume. It comes from knowing yourself at your truest core, living purposefully, and deepening your connection with others.

I did a deep dive inwardly to get real myself and cultivate self-compassion. I faced off with my inner critic and surpassed feelings of imposter syndrome.

I released anxiety, found my voice, and advocated for myself professionally and personally. I went from feeling invisible to feeling empowered.

I'm here to teach you the tools you need to do the same.

Testimonials

This program has taught me so much: how I think, react, and why I do what I do. I learned how to reset and focus. It's provided me a system that will enable me, in all seasons of my life, to revisit the groundwork and understand where I need to shift, reset, or realize why things have changed and how to use that insight moving forward. I feel empowered, grounded, and focused.

  • Kristina D.

Before the program, I felt my energy was rapidly dwindling every single day. I was struggling with imposter syndrome on the heels of a big promotion and needed to remedy my mindset. Now I can sustain my level of energy and engagement much longer using the tools and practices I learned from the program. I was able to uplevel my mindset, thanks to Melissa and the program! I am now approaching a major career opportunity and change in my life that I do not feel I would have been open to before doing this program— and I’m excited!

  • Jason S.

My stress level has dropped. I know how to be my most productive self during the day. I feel confident and hopeful instead of stuck and like I don’t have control. I feel like I’m finally blossoming.

  • Jessica J.

The curriculum as a whole is a game-changer.  I’ve done many trainings, self-assessment exercises, and coaching sessions in my 15-year career, which includes a top-tier MBA and managing a 10-person team at a Fortune 500 company, but this curriculum offered something new that I hadn’t tapped into before.  It guides you through a journey of self-exploration into the core of your imposter syndrome.  Once you are able to see these hints as they are, you become empowered to move through them and notice real impacts in your life.

  • Andrew R.

I used to be the first person to fill the awkward silence, volunteer for work that wasn’t mine to take on, or say “yes” when I should have said “no”. I’ve broken many of these habits and don’t feel guilt around it. Instead, I feel a lot more freedom.

  • Kristy S.

I feel like I have a true path forward and know how to live abundantly every day. During the program, I learned how to reschedule my days, add meditation to my life, change my morning routine, realize when my most productive times are, and I began sleeping so much better!

  • Julie W.

This program put me in a position to examine my past and set clear goals for my future. Because of the foundation of this program, I was able to attract and accept a new, exciting position! The curriculum and training taught me how to ask for more. My new role has a title increase, more pay, and, best of all, I finally feel my contributions will be appreciated!

Frequently Asked Questions

I’m really busy. How much time will this take each week?

  • This program is designed for busy people with work, social, and family obligations. The video training averages about 37 minutes in length each week. Establishing a daily meditation practice is part of the work, but the amount of time is completely personal to you. I recommend starting with three minutes in the morning and then seeing how it can (and will) grow once you realize the benefit of the practice on your clarity and productivity.

  • The coaching calls are 60 minutes in length, with 8 calls scheduled.

  • You have ten weeks given to complete the program. You can access all of the videos at once— you can self-pace according to your design.

I tried meditating once and didn’t like it. What do I do?

  • I can appreciate the difficulty you have experienced exploring meditation practice in the past. You may have had a teacher who was not able to accommodate your learning style or lifestyle. I have been a teacher of embodiment practices for over ten years and have taught many people from various backgrounds and perspectives. The Toolkit has a range of styles for you to connect with yourself. I am confident you will find a pathway into yourself that resonates!

Can I figure out if I am on the right career path?

  • I cannot guarantee any improvements in your workplace culture or values, but I can help you determine how you show up within those circumstances and decide the next best steps from there.

  • I cannot tell you whether you are on the right career path, but I can teach you how to develop your understanding of yourself and your life, fortify your intuition, and determine if your current career aligns with your highest good.

  • Many people have come into the program wondering if they have been climbing the wrong mountain! They realized they were not in the right place and ended up knowing exactly how to market themselves in alignment with their values— they ended up transitioning into wonderful career opportunities (some with increases in pay and rank upon completion of the program). Others realized their career is fine, but they must create clearer boundaries with their teams to free themselves from the burden of taking on too much. As a result, they enjoy time with family, friends, and their hobbies. In short, it depends on how much you trust the process, do the work, and lean into a sense of wonder about your story, who you are, and how you are! It is a wonderful process!
