Hello,
My name is Melinda Cart. I grew up in France so you can imagine reading this with a French accent.
My journey to joy was a winding path.
There was a time when, despite outward appearances of success, I felt empty inside. I went through the motions, believing I should be happy, but something vital was missing.
After overcoming clinical depression in 2001, my life seemed fine on the surface. However, I was emotionally numb, unable to truly enjoy experiences that others found thrilling, exciting, or satisfying. I would participate in activities like skiing or hiking, thinking I should feel what others felt, but everything remained hollow.
Compounding this emotional flatness was a constant state of upset. I was easily hurt, reactive, and I didn’t know where to turn to make it stop. The slightest comment could ruin my day, and I often felt deeply hurt by others’ words, particularly my father’s.
I did not experience a dramatic transformation. I just kept searching.
I wanted to be happier. I wanted to understand why others around me seemed to enjoy their lives and I didn’t.
From the outside, my life looked fine. I was in a relationship. I had long-time friends. I had work I enjoyed and colleagues I genuinely liked.
And yet, underneath it all, I felt alone.
I tried many things. I read. I reflected. I worked on myself. Again and again.
Nothing seemed to change in any lasting way. If anything, each attempt quietly reinforced the thought: What is wrong with me?
In 2011, I discovered Geotran. It was not just another tool. It was the turning point.
For the first time, something shifted at the root. As I practiced, the numbness began to soften. The constant reactivity eased.
And slowly, almost without fanfare, I noticed something unexpected. I no longer felt lonely.
Through my Geotran practice, I accessed something within myself I had never known how to describe. I did not even realize it was what I was looking for.
I thought I was searching for joy, when in fact what mattered most to me was self-compassion, self-acceptance, self-love, and inner peace.
As I continued practicing, I began living in a way that feels connected rather than lonely.
I became freer inside.
Freer to choose who I wanted to be.
Freer to show up as my authentic self.
And that changed everything.
What I Offer
Today, I work with people who have already done inner work and know there is still something deeper available.
I offer a grounded presence. A space where you can fully be yourself, beyond the polished version or the wounded version.
When you are faced with challenges, I help you see clearly without collapsing into self-judgment.
I help you respond rather than react.
I help you reconnect to the part of you that already knows.
I offer a space where growth does not require self-rejection.
This work deepens your ability to stay present with yourself, even when things are hard.
The work we do together strengthens your capacity to live with lightheartedness, depth, and choice, even when reality shows up uninvited.
You do not have to do this alone.
If you long to feel more at home in your own life, perhaps we should talk.
