Melinda Chinen is an ICF Certified Life and Grief Coach who works with individuals committed to creating a life of meaning after unimaginable loss. Her journey of integrating life and grief coaching began after working with doctors, entrepreneurs, and creatives who struggled to thrive relationally and professionally while navigating the grief of loved ones passing, divorce, and personal health challenges.

 

Melinda's fundamental belief is that intentional grieving is essential for our health, wellbeing, and the future of humanity, and we believe she brings a unique and vital element to the Christianne & Co. team.

 

Being born and raised in Hawaii, Melinda credits the influence of culture and community for nurturing her values. She approaches everything with an unwavering dedication to intuition, compassion, and honesty. Her passion for this work stems from her own experiences of loss, which lovingly ruptured her perception that there is a perfect and right way to live.
