Singer-songwriter & Counsellor Mel Golding, has written her music journey memoirs through an analytical lens. Mel offers insights into her story as a young artist and how she became a qualified counsellor later in life. Her life as an adolescent musician required much resilience and self-belief to continue through adversities. She went through rejection, judgments, and identity issues that impacted her development. She suffered abuse and family difficulties whilst pursuing her dream to become a famous singer. Mel's pilgrimage encountered several big industry names along the way, mentioned in her story and their role in her life. She highlights the element of ego, authenticity, conformity, and love and approval, amongst other topics that have rarely been highlighted with musicians. She speaks of her relationship with producer Mike Myers and her meetings in the US with Mike Appel and Phil Ramone. Her story relays the element of competition as she conveys the impacts of being compared to Celine Dion's market and the deal that never materialised. Through self-reflection, the narrative of her story embodies a broad analysis of the self, alongside some cognitive aspects underpinning the pilgrim of what it entails to be an artist.

Mel now counsels worldwide, specialising in the performing arts. She continues to research mental health and wellbeing of performing artists. Mel interviews musicians from across the globe, promoting artists on her podcast show, Facing Mel's Music. Mel shines a light on the holistic experiences of a musician and the importance of safeguarding mental health.
