STORYTELLER BIO:

Melanie Curtis is a world-record-breaking skydiver. She embodies wild-hearted courage. (We mean that), and pairs it with a sense of humor that warms the soul into finding their Brave self.

Being ambitious in nature, Melanie is also the Executive Director of the Women’s Skydiving Network nonprofit and the co-founder of the Highlight Pro Skydiving Team —an all-female demonstration jump team—which inspires women & girls to live bold brave lives of their own design and elevate conversations of equality and social justice.

Mel’s fire for living courageously is infectious (in a good way). Which is why we’re proud of her for offering her guidance & gifts to people who are ready to do what Melanie calls “the bravest work there is: looking inward.”

We want to thank Mel for her willingness to be vulnerable — with herself, with us, and with all of you.
