I'm ready to start my victory journey today!

Do you feel held back or stuck in life because of unhealed past trauma?

Hello beautiful soul, I’m Melanie Hope.

And, that, used to be me! I was stuck in self-sabotaging patterns caused by trauma, easily triggered by daily stressors, constantly overwhelmed & exhausted by life, and physically, mentally, & emotionally unhealthy because of negative coping mechanisms, self-neglect, & unhealed trauma symptoms. But now, I’m finally … healed, whole, & free from trauma’s damaging effects!

I'm so ready to be healed, whole, & free too!

Prioritizing my health by taking responsibility for my healing & trusting God to bring His super power to my natural efforts resulted in the supernatural transformation of my soul that finally freed me from trauma’s damaging effects & propelled me into the divine destiny of my future!

Because of this gentle & loving Faith-Based Holistic Healing approach, I’m no longer a shell of the woman God made me to be!

Just as my trauma had come in layers, so did my healing. Each one built upon the other until the final layers of addressing the nervous system’s role in trauma and recovery, and inviting Jesus into every aspect of my healing, became the dots that connected all the others, creating the faith-based holistic healing approach that blends somatic, cognitive, and spiritual practices that I used and am sharing with you.

Using that approach and partnering with the supernatural healing power of God, I was able to heal my childhood PTSD from SA, reprogram core trauma wounds and process grief, heal adult PTSD from betrayal trauma and domestic abuse, get free from anxiety and depression, break self-sabotaging trauma response patterns, relieve tension and frequent migraines, and heal persistent gut issues.

I also learned how to support my body, soul, and spirit in healthy ways and resource my nervous system to handle the inescapable daily stressors of being a stay-at-home with young kids. I learned how to identify and communicate needs and emotions to better facilitate healthy connections, how to manage emotions and integrate pain in a way that felt safe and manageable, and how to be present in my body and find true safety within myself and my environment.

Above all, I learned how much inherent value I possess and how much I am loved by the One who made me, and in turn, I learned how to love myself for the first time in my life.

Healing my deepest soul wounds helped me step away from the wounded masculine energy I’d been operating in for so much of my life and begin stepping into biblical femininity where I found my peace and purpose. Since breaking free from the chains of trauma’s effects on my body, soul, and spirit, I’m a better woman and mother who is thriving instead of simply surviving, fully trusting in God’s plan & His perfect timing in all things!

It was the grace & love of God that led me to the knowledge & understanding that helped me to be healed, whole, & free from the trauma that had impacted my body, soul, and spirit for most of my life—the same grace & love that has led you here!

After twelve years of personal healing and education, I’m here to share with you the resources and techniques I’ve learned to help regulate your nervous system, release stored trauma, and rewire your brain while practicing embodied faith to experience healing, wholeness, and freedom from the effects of your trauma.

My unique perspective on health and wellness is built upon faith in the supernatural healing power of God and incorporates the Polyvagal Theory, principles of neuroplasticity, somatic processing, and biblical truth to heal your body and soul out from the life-limiting aftermath of trauma.

You are truly loved by God and partnering with His supernatural healing power is the key to freeing you from the impacts of your unhealed and unprocessed trauma. 

My mission is to guide you in creating the life you want, by helping you deepen your faith and surrender to God’s will, while working with your nervous system to be healed, whole, and free from the effects of trauma.

My heart is to see you emerge from the dark seasons of life just as a butterfly does from its chrysalis—beautifully transformed!

“When the caterpillar surrenders, it doesn’t fear what comes next, but trusts the One who designed its transformation. Now’s the time to release what you were, and rise into the woman  God created you to be.”

 FAQs

  • The VICTORIOUS program is Biblically based. The faith aspect of “faith-based holistic healing” is based on faith in the God of the Bible and His son Jesus Christ. I do not consider the Bible to be a religion, even though there is a religion derived from it. The Bible is a historical book and a personal letter from the Creator of the earth to anyone willing to open their heart and mind to hear from Him.

    I would consider this program Christian, if based on the true meaning, derived from the Greek word Christianos which translates to “little anointed one.” I believe anyone who puts their faith in Jesus and surrenders to His will is anointed by His Spirit.

    However, the Christian label carries with it much negativity today because of its attachment to organized religion, not to mention, many refer to themselves as little anointed ones while being far from the truth. While I was raised as a Christian and still very much the same basic beliefs, I admittedly struggle with the label.

    I disagree with many things Christianity has done throughout history in the name of Jesus and believe organized religion to be a man-made concept, which Jesus himself was against. Many Christian churches have presented a false gospel, misrepresenting Jesus and what He truly stands for. As a result, using the Christian label can turn people away and close their ears to learning the truth about their Savior, which is the last thing I want to do.

    If you are a Christian, I hope you can appreciate and understand my stance. I don’t believe you’ll find anything that conflicts with your beliefs in this course. If anything, you may discover a deeper understanding of things often left out in church.

    I believe the Bible is the Word of God the Father, and that Jesus is the Word made flesh who dwelt among us and died an innocent death for the sins of mankind to set us free from the oppression of our spiritual enemy and to save us from the coming wrath at the end of the age, gifting us life everlasting with Him when He returns. I also believe He has sent a helper in the Holy Spirit to guide and lead us into knowledge and understanding of Him.

    I am simply a believer and follower of Jesus, and regardless of labels, anyone who would say the same, or is at least curious and open to learning about Him, will find this a welcoming and safe space. If you’re opposed to hearing the Bible’s truth and learning about how much you’re loved by Jesus, this likely isn’t the right program for you.  

  • Ultimately, no, because I believe this program has the anointing to speak to unbelievers as well. However, you need to at least be open to learning about Jesus. This is a faith-based holistic healing program, meaning it is centered around belief and faith in the God of the Bible. It isn’t about religion, it’s about relationship. Jesus desires to connect with you and has already paid the price for your healing. This course will teach you how to receive that healing power by grace through faith in Him.

  • If you put in the work, I believe it absolutely will, but it isn’t a quick fix. True and lasting changes come from consistent committed work.

    Releasing stored trauma and rewiring the brain helps bring the body back into homeostasis, the balanced state where it’s able to repair at a cellular level, fight infection, heal the gut, and balance hormones.

    Healing your nervous system helps regulate your emotions and broadens your capacity to handle everyday stressors. Nervous system re-patterning happens incrementally and requires a gentle focused approach.

    If you’re committed to showing up daily and putting into practice the techniques this program teaches to regulate your nervous system, release stored trauma, and rewire your brain, for the 24 weeks and beyond to maintain your healing (the same that you would maintain physical health), I’m confident you can find freedom from things like PTSD, depression, anxiety disorders, and chronic pain just as I and many others have!

  • Your body will give you noticeable signs of progress that you’ll be able to track. We’ll talk about this in phase one of the program and you’ll have materials in the resource guide to help track your progress!

  • This will be different for everyone since the time it takes to learn and implement rewiring practices is based on your schedule and commitment. Many people experience immediate signs of trauma release when they begin implementing somatic practices, but the long and lasting results will develop over time. 

    Research shows that changing the brain requires focused, consistent practice for at least six months, but based on your trauma history, your lifestyle, and your time investment, that timeline can vary.

    The VICTORIOUS program is divided into three phases (Healing Blueprint, Transformation Blueprint, & Destiny Blueprint), each containing 8 weekly rhythms (6 months’ worth) of faith-based holistic healing work that implements somatic, cognitive, and spiritual practices.

    By the end of the Healing Blueprint, if you’ve shown up regularly and consistently, I’m confident you will have begun to experience noticeable physical, mental, emotional, and behavioral shifts—all of which are outlined within the course where we address tracking your progress.

    In the second phase, the Transformation Blueprint, you’ll rely upon the foundation of safety built in the Healing Blueprint to begin inner healing, memory reprocessing, and grief work, along with identifying your core needs and building stronger boundaries.

    Most of your tangible results and noticeable shifts will likely occur in the second phase, but this doesn’t mean nothing is happening in the first phase. The Healing Blueprint is truly the foundational piece to your journey, the one that everything else will be built upon. So much is happening in the first phase even if it isn’t always as noticeable—you must trust the process!

    By the third phase, Destiny Blueprint, you will have scaled much of your healing mountain and be nearing the peak of victory. In this phase, you’ll look ahead to the future you want to build and to the divine destiny you’ve been called to, learning and implementing tools to maintain your healing and live out your destiny!

  • This is a self-paced, pre-recorded program consisting of 3 courses, each broken down into modules with video lessons and supporting PDF guides. At this price, there is no live element to the courses, but questions are welcomed via email.

    How long each course takes to fully complete is based on your level of commitment and personal schedule, but they are designed to give you 8 full weeks of faith-based holistic healing rhythms (24 total) containing body, soul, & spiritual practices, each preceded by educational videos broken into an average of 15 minute lessons.

    Modules 1-4 make up the educational portion of each course, consisting of roughly four hours of video lessons, Module Five contains the 8 weekly healing rhythms that you will follow & encouragement videos to keep you on track, and Module Six houses the DSF Healing Practice Library containing the guided video/audio for the body, soul, & spiritual healing practices you’ll be implementing in each course.

  • Yes, each course in the program can stand alone based on the level of holistic healing knowledge and stage of healing you’ve already achieved.

    The Healing, Transformation, and Destiny Blueprints are designed to complement and build upon each other to deepen your knowledge and faith in Jesus while expanding your holistic healing and transformation tools.

    The Healing Blueprint provides the foundational elements needed to heal your deepest soul wounds and become the woman you were created to be by regulating your nervous system, releasing stored trauma, and rewiring your brain while practicing embodied faith.

    The Transformation Blueprint relies upon the Healing Blueprint’s foundation of safety and provides you with the integral elements needed for deeper inner healing through memory and grief processing, focusing on more in-depth body, soul, and spirit practices.

    The Destiny Blueprint puts the finishing touches on your healing and transformation journey, helping you embody the woman you were created to be by integrating your new mindsets into all aspects of life, partnering with God to discover your divine purpose, and teaching you how to set goals, make plans, and take action toward walking out your divine destiny.

    If you have experienced childhood trauma or other big “T” traumas, I strongly encourage at least going through both the Healing Blueprint and the Transformation Blueprint to experience true freedom from the effects of trauma, but highly recommend the complete program!

  • If you’re looking for licensed, certified, or diploma-bearing, I’m not your woman. My qualifications are tried and true personal experience—years of trying various approaches until I finally found the one that worked!

    I read many books, took several courses, and talked to therapists and counselors trying to find answers about how to heal from my childhood sexual abuse and adult traumas like emotional and verbal abuse and betrayal trauma.

    I learned something from all those experiences, but never enough to bring about complete healing, wholeness, or freedom; until I fully surrendered everything to God and allowed Him to lead me. Jesus is my ultimate qualification. His anointing brought this course to life, and it’ll be His power that heals you, makes you whole, and sets you free! I’m just a willing vessel.  

  • Not only did this faith-based holistic approach to trauma healing completely change my life, but I know with every fiber of my being I’m meant to share it with as many beautiful souls as possible. Far too many are held back from their full potential because of unhealed trauma, and for that reason, I priced this program & the individual courses for accessibility as opposed to value.

    More expensive courses and programs likely contain more personal guidance or live coaching from licensed/certified individuals and therefore are offered at a price point that reflects that level of service/education.

    I’ve made this program as concise as possible, giving you the most powerful, impactful Biblical truth and holistic healing practices to most efficiently and effectively regulate your nervous system, release stored trauma, rewire your brain, process traumatic memories, heal your inner child, and embody the woman God made you to be to walk out your divine destiny.

    My heart is to see as many women healed, whole, free, and stronger in their faith as possible, and realistically speaking, I knew that the price point would be a major factor in making it highly accessible. I never want the price to be the reason that someone can’t receive information I know would help change their life in a profound way.

    In the future, I plan on setting up a sponsorship program where those who can pay more can opt to cover the cost for individuals who don’t have the means to afford the course/program. I was advised to price the program for its value, and if my ultimate goal was to make money I would have, but I knew that would eliminate many women in need from getting the help it can offer, and since my main goal is helping women get healed, whole, and free, I chose to price this program for accessibility instead.  

    The value of this program far exceeds the price it’s being sold for, not only because of the results it offers, but because of the personal hours/days/months/years that went into its making. God truly connected the dots from countless sources and experiences to combine the knowledge and wisdom it contains.

  • Due to the digital nature of this course, no refunds are permitted.

  • This program teaches some information that would be beneficial to men as well, but it has been specifically designed for women. Beyond that, it is not only best, but biblical, for men to seek instruction from other men.

    While my heart is to see all healed, whole, and free, my calling as a woman is to help other women. God willing, I will one day be able to partner with a man who has the same heart and calling, allowing DSF to offer a program specifically designed for men, but for the time being, all courses offered are designed especially for women.
