Introduction

Melissa Lapin is a faith-based motivational speaker, writer, and the visionary behind After the Well, a deeply inclusive community dedicated to empowering people from all walks of life. With authenticity, compassion, and a profound love for Jesus, she invites individuals to step beyond religious limitations into genuine spiritual transformation. Her heart beats strongest for those who’ve felt unseen, marginalized, or hurt by religious experiences, offering them a safe and nurturing space to rediscover their unique purpose, identity, and calling.

Through her popular podcast – After the Well-, insightful blogs, and intimate workshops and retreats, Melissa leads participants toward emotional and spiritual healing. Her approach isn’t about lofty theology or complicated doctrines; it’s about real, everyday conversations that connect deeply and authentically. She emphasizes transparency, encouraging individuals to embrace their true selves, rewrite negative narratives, and shift from limitations to possibilities rooted in faith.

Melissa’s personal journey mirrors the mission of After the Well. She has experienced profound encounters at life’s metaphorical wells and is passionate about helping others recognize their innate worth and potential. Whether it’s through one-on-one coaching, online webinars, or immersive retreat experiences, she crafts environments where everyone feels genuinely seen, known, and loved—both by God and within community.
 
Melissa enjoys simple moments of joy and connection and is usually found doing so outdoors with friends and family. She’s also an accomplished artist and jewelry designer (www.missyjaneart.com).
