The Heart Dashboard

 $125

You’ve put in the work. You’ve read, listened, tried.

But when life presses in, your chest tightens, your patience thins, and you lose your grounding. 

You tell yourself to breathe and be grateful, yet something inside still feels out of reach. 


  You’re not broken. Your body has been protecting you. It just never learned how to return to safety. When your nervous system is bracing for impact, connection slips through your fingers.

You don’t need to try harder. You need a new way to listen. Your emotions aren’t the problem. They’re signals. 


Like dashboard lights, each feeling is your inner world asking for care. You wouldn’t ignore a check engine light. You’d look under the hood. 


  The Heart Dashboard shows you how to do that with yourself. To notice what is blinking, slow down, and respond with compassion instead of self blame.

You don’t need to become a different person. 

 You just need to understand the signals your body and emotions have been sending all along.

Here’s what changes when you learn to read your
Heart Dashboard:

BEFORE THE HEART DASHBOARD

You wake up already tense and disconnected.

You push past emotions because you don’t know what to do with them.

You feel stuck in patterns of overthinking or shutting down.

Your body feels like something that betrays you.

You feel alone in your inner world.

AFTER THE HEART DASHBOARD

You start your day with awareness and calm, noticing what your body needs.

You listen to your emotions as data, not drama responding with compassion.

You can pause, breathe, and choose new responses from a grounded place.

Your body becomes a trusted partner in your healing and growth.

You feel seen, safe, and connected to yourself and the people you love.

  • How long does it take?
    It’s designed as a 12-day experience, but you can go at your own pace. No pressure, no deadlines. But remember, change happens through consistency.

    Yes, you have a couple of options.
    1. For Giving Tuesday, you can buy one and I will give one to a survivor through the Elevate Academy that serves survivors of trafficking.

In Their Words: 

I made The Heart Dashboard for others like me. So I reached out to people from my email list and had a group of beta testers go through the course, these are their responses. 

Mom of Three
"I have gained a lot. I was in a very disengaged place with my heart prior to starting...I am now feeling very present with what still needs healing and rest and just time. I've learned to establish consistent rhythms for myself."

Momma of Littles

"It encouraged me to know that I am engaging with my heart even if I'm not methodically thinking about it, also it helped me to see where I need to focus on-following my intuition with more action and celebrating it more." 

New To Emotional Health Work
"Whether it's anger or excitement, I can take a moment to properly acknowledge both parts of me, both then and now-26 yr old me and 6 yr old me. We are seen, trusted and heard. I'm very grateful I got to go through this course with you and learn who I am emotionally." 
Someone Finding Their Way Thru Life
"Thank you for this course. It's been so life-giving to go through this process and I am leaving feeling way more connected to myself than when I started."
Coach 

"I wish I had this when I first started healing, lol. It's such a soft and kind invitation to receive care and offer curiosity to ourselves and others."
Recovering from health issues
"I've learned how to make better decisions in the moment of high emotions and also recognizing when I'm in. a highly activated state. That's a huge growth for me!" 
A Professional looking for peace and love with her authentic heart.
"I noticed how much peace I felt when I listened to my heart, even if the decision was small. I felt seen and taken care of. Taking time to celebrate myself was a reminder that my heart is not evil and carries so much love."
Someone looking for resources
"You've done a wonderful job. I'm loving the content and I'm getting SO MUCH out of it!"

    Who Am I? 

    I am Melanie Huggard, the creator of The Heart Dashboard and a Connection Strategist who helps people come home to themselves. 

    I teach women, survivors, and leaders how to regulate their nervous systems, trust their inner wisdom, and live with intention instead of autopilot.  

    For nearly a decade I have coached and trained inside programs like Elevate, Building Teams that Win, Alive and Free, Living Fully Alive, and the Life Consulting Masterclass. I just completed my 3rd year in Somatic Experiencing Training. My work blends somatic principles, emotional awareness, and compassionate, direct clarity. 

    It is shaped by my own healing journey which includes my story as a controlling mom. My book, Rootbound. A Mother's Journey. A Daughter's Pain, has won awards, and a five star editorial review. It has opened conversations about healing and honesty in families and communities. 

    I have supported hundreds of people in learning how to reconnect with their hearts and bodies and make decisions they can feel proud of...and how to be with the disappointment when you're not proud of the decision. 

    What makes my work different is simple. I help you listen to yourself. I help you understand what your emotions are trying to show you so you can respond with compassion instead of criticism. Emotions aren't always true, but they are always a signal to a deeper understanding that can lead you to truth. 

    The Heart Dashboard was created to make that possible.  If you are ready to live with more connection, clarity, and self trust, you are in the right place.
