Behind The Spotlight


Dec 7, 2023

Beth is joined by fierce coach, intensely driven entrepreneur and comically authentic speaker and connector, Melanie Curtis. Melanie has jumped out of an airplane over 11,000 times in over 20 years and has circled the globe as a headlining professional skydiver and eventually founded How to Fly, Inc. where she works with Type A high-achievers through fear and the feelings that come with it across widely varied life challenges and business pursuits. She helps her clients get through the super unsexy work of building the internal emotional skills external high-achievers so often lack and only realize when faced with a life challenge they can’t seem to figure out how to get through. 

Melanie shares on:

  • How she got into skydiving (and why she avoided it for many years before facing her fears)
  • Some pivotal and transcendental moments in her life
  • Holding positive space for clients
  • Accountability and communication
  • How she operates as a life coach
  • Identifying fear, clarifying values and employing courage
  • Tapping into ones creative abilities

Melanie leads through her keynote speaking and significant online presence, extracting useful insight and inspiration for others in all the content she contributes to or creates. She has been featured in Fast Company, Elle Magazine, Give Me Sport, Ellevate Podcast, Success IQ and on numerous other podcasts and in other publications over the years.
