Empowering Individuals and Teams to Overcome Burnout and Achieve Lasting Personal and Professional Success with a Restored Passion for Life.
My Mission
Burnout is chronic stress that goes unmanaged and, unfortunately, it is very common in our fast-paced world. However, it can have profound effects on our personal and professional lives. It can result in decreased productivity, strained relationships, and negative impacts on our physical, mental and emotional well-being. I guide individuals and teams through the challenges of burnout. With practical strategies and compassionate support, clients can enjoy healthier, more productive lives and successful careers. My ultimate goal is to restore each person I help with a passion for life!

About Missy
Hello, my name is Missy Riley. I am a Florida resident, a proud dog mom, a children's book author, and I believe fun and laughter are good for the soul.
For over 20 years, I also held various roles in corporate recruiting, and I helped thousands of candidates to land dream job opportunities. My greatest satisfaction was witnessing individuals thrive in their careers. However, as I worked hard to navigate my own career, I often neglected my personal self-care. In 2017, I began to experience signs of burnout. I suffered from anxiety and exhaustion and by 2018, I had an accident that totaled my car. It took me seven more years to address my personal needs. I had suffered so long, I sacrificed the career that I took decades to build and struggled to recognize my own identity outside of a corporate title.
As a result of my experience, I was determined to help others who have dealt with the painful and costly impacts of burnout as well. I became a certified Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP) and Personal Development and Performance Coach. In 2025, I started my own company, Melissa Riley Consulting, to bring awareness to students, professionals and teams about the emotional, physical and mental impacts of burnout. Through speaking, workshops, and coaching, I help clients identify strategies and tools to prevent burnout or recover from it. By prioritizing self-care, individual clients and teams can enjoy a more fulfilling life, both personally and professionally.
"If you achieve every academic and professional milestone but you are burned out physically, mentally and emotionally, I would ask, what have you really gained?"
