Facing Inward: A Memoir of Celebrity, Sexuality and Chronic Disease

Facing Inward is a memoir that weaves together stories of resilience, love, and self-discovery. At the heart of it is a candid reflection on a life shaped by chronic illness, Southern family dynamics, and an unshakable sense of feeling different.

Moving through pivotal phases of her life—childhood, a life-saving kidney transplant, and the Covid-19 pandemic—Melissa opens a window into her experiences as a lesbian, media personality, and someone who had to constantly reckon with a body that never quite cooperated. Each chapter offers glimpses into the complexities of her identity, from personal relationships to her rise in the media world, peppered with celebrity encounters and moments of vulnerability.

This memoir is for anyone who's ever felt out of place in their own body or wondered how to find joy amid struggle. With wit and honesty, it tells the story of a woman who refuses to let her differences define her, embracing them instead as part of the richness of her unique journey.
