Your Inner

FIRE

Do you know who you are? The authentic you? The one you were before society told you otherwise?

Are you often misunderstood and undervalued? Do you know you were made for something more? That you were meant for making a big impact on this world?

Do you suspect your “weird” is actually the thing that makes you an important and necessary part of society? Are you ready to burn the patriarchy and create a new, more loving society for all?

If you answered yes, then it is no accident you have landed upon this page. The world needs you in all your brilliance. When we connect with our inner fire, we burn brightly for all to see. We become the lighthouses that guide others to their inner fire where we’ll build a bigger and brighter community. In the brilliance of our blaze, the patriarchy will fall.

The Value Of Our Inner Rebels: Guidance Toward A Lifetime Of Adventure

I was born a rebel but not in your typical sense. I wasn’t the angsty teen outright defying my parents, teachers, or other authority figures. I was rebellious in that I knew what the rules of being human were and I didn’t always agree with them. When I wasn’t even in...

How Did I Go From Animal Communicator To Burn The Patriarchy Coach?

Oh hi. You might be confused if you showed up here looking for my Burn the Patriarchy coaching but found a website full of WILD coaching with a lot of talk about animals and energy healing. I get it. The leap isn’t as great as it first appears. After all, the idea...

Animal Communication As A Path To Freedom

Have you ever been so stuck in unhealthy patterns that you wonder if change is even possible? Do you feel like you are so close to the problem you can’t see what is likely right in front of you? Do you spend hundreds maybe thousands of dollars on physicians,...

Living My Impossible Dream: My Younger Self Would Be So Proud

I stood in front of my dad in my grandparent’s kitchen shaking with excitement in anticipation of sharing my profound news. I often stopped him there by the dishwasher to capture his full attention when I had news he needed to know because there was only room for one...

Why Are People So Mean? An Unravelling of My Own Cruelty

One of my life’s quests has been to discover why people are so mean. I was around 5 when I asked my dad, “why were those people so mean?” about a commercial. I remember feeling so confused that my parents were preaching kindness, but right there on a public screen was...

What is mirroring? And how is it used in animal communication?

What is mirroring? Mirroring is recognizing a reflection of some aspect of yourself outside of yourself. How is it used in animal communication? Mirroring in animal communication is when an animal - whether a pet or a wild one - mirrors an aspect of ourselves in an...

You are receiving signs everyday. Are you noticing?

Nature mirrors us every day. These are little nudges for us to pay attention to. It's nature's way of communicating to us: I see you. I honor you. I want to support you. Yesterday, I was out for a walk with my pup, Tater. My mind felt out of control. I had listened to...

Do you know who you are?

Do you know who you are? Do you go through life walking your talk? Or, do you want to be someone else, something else and go through life behaving in ways that aligns more with what others want you to be? The first few years I practiced my animal communication skills,...

What is Subtle Energy?

Do you ever get the goosebumps when your best friend says something so true you feel it in your bones? Have you ever felt like you need to cancel your plans but don’t know why until you receive a call saying your sister is in labor? Have you ever known something was...

Causation vs. Entrainment

Now that science is backing a lot of what energy practitioners have known for centuries, humans are becoming more aware of the impact that not only their behaviors have on the world around them, but their thoughts and energetic patterns as well. A question that pet...

Melinda Lee Schmitt (she/her), founder of Encompass Energetics, helps people who have been negatively impacted by patriarchy claim their authentic Self.

Melinda Lee is a Burn the Patriarchy coach. She leads from a place of authenticity, hates labels because sometimes words aren’t enough, and is a deep believer in all things love. She is unapologetically wild, a successful entrepreneur, and a rebel hugger who owns her truth and seeks freedom for all.

Adventurer, edge seeker, and coach; Melinda helps you discover WHO you really are to create a relationship with yourself so that you can access your expansive possibility and express your authentic self.

Burning the patriarchy as a coach, a speaker, and a truth guide one ember at a time. She is the creator of the Reclaim Your Inner Fire coaching program for those who feel misunderstood and know they were built for something more. Those who are ready to discover or uncover what that looks like for their unique selves.

“We all have an inner rebel. Some whose influence is greater than others but always a voice that is gently urging, ‘I know this doesn’t make sense, but do it anyway.’

This inner rebel will always lead you to the greatest adventures of your life. Ones that at first may have you wondering, ‘What the hell did I just do?’ but eventually, inevitably to the greatest awe-inspiring moments of yourself and your life.”

– Melinda Lee Schmitt

Are you ready to ignite that fire within you?

When you were born, you knew who you were. You knew how to get your needs met unapologetically. You weren’t afraid to use your voice and dream impossible dreams. You were created to use your unique voice and dreams to build a magnificent life experience for yourself and your community but society indoctrinated you with beliefs that convinced you that it’s not true. Society convinced you that you are not safe unless you conform. Your culture convinced you that different is bad. That your voice and dreams are to be used for the sole purpose of maintaining the status quo.

Yet, you have an unsettling feeling deep within that continues to say, “you were born for more than this.” You have tried to be the dutiful partner, exemplary employee, attentive parent and while these all brought you some happiness, there is a discontent that defies logic. You cry to loved ones, “I don’t understand. On paper, my life seems perfect. Why am I so miserable?”

Your wild self is calling. Society may have been able to tame you for a while, but they can’t extinguish the call that gets louder with each passing year, with each new diagnosis, with each failed relationship that says, “You have been chosen to lead the impractical dream. All that’s required is that you once again ignite the passion that burns within you.”

Introducing the

Ignite Your Inner 

FIRE

3 and 6 Month Programs

Are you ready to reclaim your inner fire?

Do you know who you are? The authentic you? The you that you were before the world told you who to be? The one that feels at peace in her own skin?

When you were born, you knew who you were. You knew how to get your needs met unapologetically. You weren’t afraid to use your voice. You lived unapologetically and full of pride and awe of your own damn self. Your unique qualities are the very gifts you were born to share with the world. It wasn’t long though before our patriarchal society led you to believe that your unique gifts weren’t welcome and you needed to conform in order to stay safe and belong.

You are hard wired for belonging so you went along with it. You tried to be the dutiful wife, exemplary employee, attentive mom, and nice member of the community. While these all brought you some happiness, there is a discontent that defies logic. You cry to loved ones, “I don’t understand. On paper, my life seems perfect. Why am I so miserable?”

Society may have been able to dampen your flame, but they can’t extinguish the smoldering from within that gets hotter with each passing year, with each new diagnosis, with each failed relationship that says, “You are more than this. You came here to be the brightest light you could be. All that’s required is that you reclaim your inner fire; the very essence of you.”
