This isn’t branding.

It’s Remembering.

It’s for the woman who’s ready to stop performing and start leading from within.
When you are named at the soul level, clarity rises, Fear softens. Power returns.

If you are like the many I work with, you are finding yourself at a turning point in life. It feels like you are on the verge of becoming, and you find yourself seeking the courage to walk into your next level of you. Angst starts appearing. Speaking aloud that which you’ve tried to silence: Who are you to become this you?


Being named is holy. To know who you are within, unequivocally roots your in agreement with your Soul. You no longer negotiate who you are and what you’re here to do. You are aligned within and how know how to speak about your work and it’s impact. No more negotiating your services or products.

When you are named, all of who you are and what you do come into alignment within and your work takes off.

If you are like the many I work with, you are finding yourself at a turning point in life. It feels like you are on the verge of becoming, and you find yourself seeking the courage to walk into your next level of you.

Those who have been named:

  • Stop doubting how to describe their work.
  • Speak their your soul—with clarity, confidence, and truth.
  • No longer tiptoe around their gifts. They lead with them.
  • No more shapeshifting to be understood.
  • They became undeniable.

Soul Naming gives then language that matches their soul.

They are no longer shapeshifting to be understood—they became undeniable.

Art by Nancy Coleman

No more negotiation of Self, sit in alignment with your Soul. You are worthy to become who you know you are.

Hear From My Clients:

“My  naming ceremony among the redwoods with my family present. Melanie revealed my name, MotherTree, at the ceremony with everyone circled around burned and smudged sage grounding me in reverence of the holy and mother earth. I had no idea what this name meant or how she knew to name me Mother Tree. What I learned is that this tree is the oldest and most powerful tree in the forest, nurturing all trees through its roots to grow and mature into future mother trees.  

Since this powerful naming, my life has been completely reinvented, and I am grounded in the wisdom and tradition of my ancestors, women warriors who rooted me. Melanie, a gifted, intuitive, and indigenous ceremonialist. This Name changed the course of my life to being more mindful, present, and grounded. I believe this name  pronounced on and over me by her is the reason why at this stage of my life, I have arrived at my authentic purpose to serve community and family grounded and rooted like a mother tree.”

Working with Melanie was an enlightening and transformative experience. Her deep understanding of spiritual guidance and connection to nature brought clarity to my journey of self-discovery. Through our session, I gained valuable insights into my role as a magnifier and the significance of embracing my unique gifts. Her guidance helped me recognize the power within me and provided a roadmap for stepping into my vocation with confidence and purpose.

Ann Betz Neuroscience Coach, Author, Speaker

Being named so beautifully by Melanie helped me claim the part of myself that is actually the most important. Her relentless seeing of what was biggest in me called it forth even larger. I can't hide from this part of myself anymore, which my own fear of being big was keeping small and quiet within me.I think of myself (in part) as this name, and come back to it again and again like a north star. I know it wants to be born even more fully into the world.

Receiving a soul name from Chante Peta Wiyan (Melanie DewBerry) is a pround, numinous experience of being seen, affirmed, and commissioned to go forth into the world as your most authentic self. I recommend this experience to everyone, regardless of how solidly grounded they are in their identity. I assure you that there are nuances Chante will illuminate that are not to be missed. I cannot say enough how grateful I am to embody the name she revealed to me.

Cara Pacific Campbell Owner, Kusi Nuna

I am so deeply grateful for the support and encouragement you have given me to show up and courageously follow my own deepest soul's desire/ imperative. Your commitment to authenticity and assisting others in claiming theirs is inspiring. All during the Soul Naming process I felt so seen and encouraged to find and speak my truth. And you made it FUN! Your courage and fire are contagious and I am always lit up by our conversations. Thank you for helping me conceive, create and manifest Art of Devotion, which has revitalized and refocused my work in the world.

Cecily Victor Certified Convening Leader

Melanie channels transformation in a way that is hard to describe. It is not an outcome — transformation is an experience that she anchors into the room. She speaks from beyond — she has inspired me to connect with my deepest truth. Melanie effortlessly dissolves confusion and self-doubt. She gives you the ability to step out of doubt and to inhabit the world living your fullest purpose

Naomi Shintani Narrator of Culture

Melanie DewBerry listens and sees in ways that are uncommon. She dives beyond the obvious, to pull out nuggets to be shown to the world. Melanie gave me poetic, true, profound, and “to the point” language to verbalize my soul identity and path. “I am the Narrator of Culture, and it is the unspoken that compels me to create.” I highly recommend working with Melanie to crystallize and develop your own vocabulary to express who you are and what you do, in a straightforward and provocative manner.

Michelle Burns Coach

The Soul Naming work with Melanie has stayed with me now, many months later. It was such a reaffirming experience to be seen and witnessed as Melanie does. How is it relevant for me and my business? There’s a gem, a remembrance and colorful knowing of her observations. This gem is solid like bedrock, supporting the conversations with my clients and clients-to-be. There’s also the way in which she fiercely yet lovingly calls one forth to step into a fully expressed, most authentic identity. Powerful medicine.

Laurel Elders She Who Roots

Working with Melanie was profound, restorative, and heart healing. I highly recommend stepping into this sacred arena of work with her when you are ready for your true Essence to be seen, your true Potential to shine forth and your inner gifts illuminated. Be prepared to be shifted, inspired, and aligned with your Highest Self!

Elissa Salter Coach, Poet & Photographer

It’s a gift to be attuned to so magnificently. Melanie has an extraordinary ability to listen and reflect back but with so much more. She has an uncanny way of affirming you and calling you forth so that you are at once both comfortable and uncomfortable - more alive. She calls you to step forward, sink down and not shrink back.
