it's magical to meet you
I'm Melanie, and I'm so grateful you're here! As a small business owner, mom of two small children, and lover of magic and mindfulness -- the opportunity to share my book with the world is a dream come true. I have loved to write since I was a young girl and I hope getting my words out there shows readers, young and old, that it's never too late to follow your dreams! When I am not writing or working in my business, you can find me chasing my two littles (and the dog!) around my Northern California backyard or spending time with family and friends. I hope Every Day Magic becomes a source of inspiration, joy, and fun for you and yours!
my story
As a mom of two, small business owner, and a lover of all things magical; I believe in the power of life's little wonders. Every Day Magic was born out of a personal journey. In 2023 I was met with the sudden onset of a chronic illness caused by unforeseen circumstances that had roots going back to my early childhood. What felt like overnight, I found myself going from an active entrepreneur to a woman often stuck in bed.
​
I began dreaming up ways to engage with my kids and make meaningful memories, even when my energy was low. These ideas became the heart of this book, a story crafted with love, imagination, and the belief that magic isn't something we find; it's something we create! I believe every single one of us has the power within to bring that magic to life.

I hope this story sparks wonder, connection, and a little bit of magic for you and your family- just as it has for mine!
