Guest Bio:
Melissa Bauknight is the founder of The Nova Global, a women’s community built for conscious, growth-oriented women who refuse to leave any part of themselves at the door. A former medical device sales professional turned serial community developer, Melissa spent nine years becoming the leader Nova needed before she ever launched it. She’s building a movement — not a membership.
Episode Description:
This one is personal. Heather sits down with Melissa Bauknight — Nova Global founder and one of her closest collaborators — for a rare, reciprocal conversation about what it actually looks like to build a business from the inside out. They explore energetic leadership, what it means to have a Chief Energetics Officer working inside your company, and why the most powerful rooms are the ones where no one has to pretend. Equal parts business and soul — exactly what Sacred Boardroom was made for.
In This Episode:
- Why Nova took nine years to come to life — and why that timeline was the point
- What Melissa was navigating as a founder when Heather first came into the Nova as Chief Energetics Officer
- What “energetic change management” actually looks like inside a growing company
- How energy work supports team dynamics, hiring decisions, and leadership confidence
- The belonging wound — and why mixed rooms of women heal it faster than anything else
- Why Melissa runs retreats as a team sport and what non-hierarchical leadership actually feels like in practice
- What Supernova Live is and why September in Golden, Colorado might be exactly where you need to be
- The vision for Nova Global — and the moment that made them both cry
