Melody Wilding        

Executive Coach for Sensitive High-Achievers & Author

Melody Wilding is the best-selling author of "Trust Yourself: Stop Overthinking and Channel Your Emotions for Success at Work" and an executive and leadership coach for smart, sensitive high-achievers who are tired of getting in their own way.

Through her coaching programs, talks, small-group workshops, and articles, she’s here to help you break free from self-doubt and overwhelm, master your emotions, and use your sensitivity as the superpower that it is.

Recently named one of Business Insider’s “Most Innovative Coaches,” Wilding coined the groundbreaking idea of “sensitive striving.” She has helped CEOs, leaders, and top performers at the world’s most successful companies, including Google, Facebook, JP Morgan, Verizon, and more. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, Oprah Magazine, NBC News, and dozens of other high-profile publications.

Wilding is a Sensitive Striver herself, a licensed social worker with a Master's degree from Columbia University, and a former researcher at Rutgers University. She is a professor of human behavior at Hunter College and a contributor to Harvard Business Review, Forbes, and Business Insider.

When she’s not helping professionals thrive in the workplace, you’ll find Wilding listening to podcasts and geeking out about productivity, habits, and psychology.
