Accountability Coaching
with Melissa Uppelschoten
It is time to Level Up
You are meant to accomplish amazing things in this world. To have an impact. Maybe you feel called to start a business. Host an event. Get in shape. Plan an Epic trip around the world. Start a Podcast. Buy a house to rehab and rent for some passive income.
Whatever dreams you may be chasing, I know from personal experience that taking action can be the most difficult part of the journey. I use the skills I honed as an Industrial and Systems Engineering major and during my career in complex, international project management roles at a Fortune 500 company on YOU!
My name is Melissa and I help people level up on their journey to reaching their goals. I’m a coach, a motivator and I hold people accountable to their dreams with a no-nonsense approach.
​
My program works best for people who are ready to take that first step toward making significant, measurable progress. My program is for heart-centered, busy people who prefer individual attention on their own timeline.

My Coaching Approach
You set a target, and with regular, consistent check-ins, I hold you accountable for taking action in achieving the steps along the way to that target. Whether you need a gentle nudge or a firmer push, you and I will work together in a way that you’ll best respond to based on your personality and your preferences. Together we will build your personal accountability system.
There are Seven Simple Steps:
01
You decide you are ready to level-up and get @#$!% done!
02
03
I will send you a Calendly link to schedule a 15-minute Zoom call to discuss your particular goals and how I can best support you. Most importantly, we’ll confirm we are indeed the right fit for each other! If we both agree to move forward…
04
I will send you an invitation to Telegram–the accountability platform I use–as well as links to an Enneagram Test and Human Design Chart. At this time, you’ll also receive your invoice for the introductory price of $188 per month.
05
We check-in typically four times a week to track your inspired action for the day - in Telegram using chat, voice memo or video messaging. You can leave messages whenever you want! I will provide feedback, guidance and encouragement during my business hours.
We reflect on your progress at the end of the month on a 45-minute Zoom check-in.
06
07
You decide at the end of the call if you’d like to continue. I will never pressure you into a long-term commitment. If you decide to move forward, we’ll set your target for the next 30 days.
My Story

I’m a native of greater Chicago who moved to Atlanta during high school. I attended Georgia Tech, earning a degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering—which just happens to be all about efficiency!
I worked at IBM for 27 years in project management and management roles - my favorite projects were the troubling ones. While on assignment in Dublin, Ireland, I met my Dutch husband of 25+ years. We spent another year living in The Netherlands before settling back in Atlanta.
I left IBM to work for the non-profit TechBridge, later moving on to follow another passion—rehabbing homes. I co-led an Accountability Program for women, which led to beautiful transformations. I’m currently developing land on the southside of Atlanta and am an Accountability Coach. I’m a lifelong learner, traveler and yoga lover.
Some of the Things I’ve Manifested:
-
An exceptional career (including two overseas assignments)
-
An amazing Dutch husband
-
Two phenomenal children—one about to start undergrad at GA Tech, and another who is finishing up undergrad in London and heading to GA Tech for grad school!
-
Beautiful homes (plural!)
-
A 25+ pounds loss and keeping it off for 7 years
-
Travel around the world (lots of this!)
-
Board positions at non-profits that speak to my heart
-
Amazing communities of beautiful beings that support me on my own journey, AND…
-
Killer tattoos (my logo just happens to be one)!
What I believe
At my core, I believe we are all one—that our thoughts become reality, that we are surrounded by abundance, that we are capable of so much more in community than we are alone, that there is more good in this world than bad, that we are worth the effort, that progress is more important than perfection and that we are supported by a higher power (or whatever your word for that may be). I believe we can do good in this world AND get paid for it and that we are capable of fulfilling our dream life—all of it!
I look forward to meeting you, working with you and watching you level up and grow!
