Raise your hand if you...
✔️ Feel a knot in your stomach when your parents forget something important
✔️ Worry constantly about whether this is "normal ageing" or something more serious
✔️ Find yourself Googling "signs of dementia" late at night
✔️ Feel guilty for getting frustrated with your parent's forgetfulness
✔️ Are scared about what the future might hold for your family
✔️ Wonder if you'll have to become a caregiver someday
✔️ Worry about your own risk of developing memory issues
✔️ Feel overwhelmed by the potential challenges ahead
With Talking Ageing, you're never alone.
My promise to you is that together, we'll solve problems, you'll have more clarity for today, and you'll understand the options and next steps for tomorrow.
I will provide you with the same strategies, knowledge, scripts, resources and exercises that I've given to 1,000+ families face-to-face.

day-to-day care & life easier
Maintain connection, argue less,
and see an increase in joyful
and meaningful moments
Find greater self-care balance.
Be more successful at juggling life (kids, parents, work & self)
The pre-diagnosis workshop includes...
Everything you need to help Mum & Dad navigate the diagnosis journey. Lifetime access for only AU $300
Dementia foundations: The dementia umbrella, the journey ahead, genetics and risk factors, and my philosophy 'Step into their world'.
Early warning signs: Learn to spot dementia's early signs vs normal ageing changes. Understand the different types of dementia, including Alzheimer's.

Sharing a diagnosis with family, friends & children: A difficult and vulnerable process. There is no prescriptive approach, but I share practical strategies to help Mum or Dad share their diagnosis.

Common questions
Is this workshop for me?
Are you navigating the ageing, dementia or caregiving journey with Mum, Dad or an ageing loved one? And are you keen to understand more, make the journey a bit easier, not feel alone, and provide best care possible? If yes - this workshop is absolutely for you!
Is this just for Australians?
No. Ageing is a universal experience.
The knowledge, strategies and exercises are used by families around the world. I have worked with families from Australia, the USA, the UK, Europe and Asia. Just note that being Australian, I use 'Mum' instead of 'Mom', 'Ageing' instead of 'Aging'.
What if Talking Ageing isn't right for me?
I'm confident that I can help you and your family. However, if Talking Ageing isn't the right solution for you, please contact us within 14-days of payment for a full refund.
Do you have an online community?
It's happening! Later in 2024 we'll be creating a private Talking Ageing online community.
What device do I need to access Talking Ageing?
Any device. I personally find the larger the screen the better, but you can use any mobile device, tablet or computer. Additionally, I recommend that you print off the PDF exercises.
What access will I have to Melissa?
If you’re looking for me, this is where you’ll find me: Pre-recorded workshops, live webinars and Q&A sessions. I will also be setting up a private community so you can connect with me, my team and your peers; your extended village.

If you're still reading, you're likely caring for someone you love.
You're wanting the very best for your mom, dad, grandma, grandpa or ageing loved one. And you're probably finding it really hard, exhausting, confusing, often thankless and relentless.
From dementia to late life depression and anxiety, from navigating the aged care maze to carer stress and support. There is so much to learn, so many appointments and diagnoses, and so many emotions.
Firstly, I just want to say that you are not alone. Being a carer is one of the hardest and most important roles we'll play in our lives - while simultaneously trying to juggle the rest of life's responsibilities (kids, pets, friends, work - and our own mental health too).
As a clinical psychologist and author, specialising in older people's mental health and dementia, I've helped more than 1,000 families walk this journey. I’ve come to know that while every family’s story is unique, we all share the same fears and questions about ageing.
My promise to you is that together, we'll solve problems, you'll have more clarity for today, and you'll understand the options and next steps for tomorrow. My hope is to provide your family with greater peace of mind, and more confidence, knowledge, skills and strategies to make this stage of life easier. We will reduce your fears and anxieties, manage carer stress and prevent burnout.
I can't wait to help your family.
