Hey, I’m Melissa.

I host Hard Wig, Soft Life—a podcast about figuring sh*t out when life won’t let up.

This show was born out of survival. The kind that forces you to grow up fast, hold it all together, and keep performing like everything’s fine. I got tired of pretending I was okay. Tired of carrying it all. Tired of feeling like softness was something I had to earn.

So now, I talk about what happens when you stop performing strength and start choosing yourself. For real this time.

This space is for the women who’ve been through it, are still in it, or finally crawling out of it. The ones learning how to rest, how to let go, how to be seen—without the mask.

No fake healing. No hustle worship. Just real conversations about what it takes to make peace with your past and still believe in what’s next.

New episodes drop every Wednesday.
