TEDx Speaker / Author / Relationship Coach

Melissa Nanavati graduated college at 19, authored international bestselling college textbooks, became an international speaker by 25, and still spent nearly a decade single and frustrated despite all of it. That gap between career success and relationship success became her life's work. She overcame clinically diagnosed anxiety, anxious attachment, and alcoholism, went on over 100 first dates across every major platform and matchmaker, and ultimately developed her own framework for how high performers find and build exceptional relationships. She is now married to Marine veteran and extreme explorer Akshay Nanavati, and together they run two businesses while traveling 80 percent of the year. Her work is backed by neuroscience, biology, and a story that most relationship coaches simply cannot touch.
