About Dr. Melissa Sonners

Exhausted Moms: This 2-Minute Fix Restores Your Feminine Power (Dr. Melissa Sonners)Dr. Melissa Sonners is a chiropractor and expert in mind-body alignment, dedicated to helping women reconnect with their whole selves. As the host of the Be Inspired Mama Podcast and founder of Best Friends Book Nook, she creates spaces for women to explore self-connection and personal growth, without adding more to their to-do lists.

Her passion for self-care and alignment deepened after being diagnosed in 2017 with neurological Lyme disease, meningitis, and encephalitis while juggling work and motherhood.

This challenge became a gift, leading her to discover the power of small, intentional shifts that create real transformation. It also sparked her obsession with understanding the female brain, how our brainwaves, hormones, and nervous system interact, and how simple, science-backed tools can regulate the mind, break the stress cycle & guide us home to our whole selves.

Through her platforms, Dr. Melissa helps women shift from disconnection to alignment, embracing both their ego and true self to create a life of ease, confidence, and joy. She empowers women to stop seeking outside validation and turn inward because the connection they’ve been searching for has been inside them all along.
