MELODY BANDA'S PROFILE
Melody is a passionate author who has loved writing since her primary school days. She finds it amusing that every time she enters a stationery shop, her eyes are immediately drawn to the pens and notepad section. She often ends up buying them, unable to resist her strong inclination for writing. Such is the depth of her passion. Melody has completed her second book, titled "I AIN'T LEAH," which is targeted at women. The book was launched on August 26, 2023, in Gaborone.
Apart from being an author, Melody is an ordained pastor who is deeply devoted to helping God's children grow in their knowledge of Him and their walk with Him. She teaches on vital subjects that ground individuals in their faith in God. Driven by her passion for freedom, she yearns for wisdom and, when God reveals it to her, she shares it with His people through preaching, teaching, and writing.
Melody is also a mentor to young people, whom she deeply cares for and desires the best for. In 2018, she established a young women's ministry that she continues to pursue. She also reaches out to young men, especially those who have grown up without fathers, as she is passionate about addressing the issues related to fatherlessness, which she recognizes as being linked to many societal problems.
Given that her book "Watch out for Laban" is filled with business concepts and principles, Melody also offers business coaching, leadership training, and relationship advice. Furthermore, she is a counselor who provides guidance to individuals from various walks of life. She is particularly passionate about empowering both women and men, as she believes that their unity and harmony can bring about great benefits for each other. Alongside her husband, Melody offers pre-marital counseling and marriage counseling services.
Melody is not only a writer but also a singer and songwriter. She enthusiastically pursues these creative endeavors with her husband.
Currently, Melody is studying at StudyHub UK, where she is taking courses in content writing, copywriting, proofreading, copy editing, script and screenwriting, appraisals, and self-publishing.
Prior to her current pursuits, Melody worked in the legal field from 1998 to 2017.
