In her seminarian Master’s degree Melissa was chosen as a recipient of the coveted Kern Scholarship. She has built and sold not one, but two tiny houses, pursued a career as a stuntwoman, and worked as an extra in LA-based TV sets. For three years she served as an operations manager for a local non-profit coffee shop, and we can’t help but to mention her storied life as a motorcyclist. Basically, she’s the coolest person we know. Melissa graced us with an hour out of her busy schedule to discuss her entrepreneurial spirit, imposter syndrome, gender dynamics in the workplace, and healthy male relationships. This interview was conducted on October 17, 2025. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/b828df7a-ef6a-49ee-b12f-d46a5ad5c76b/IMG_2111.JPG Blog - Interview with Melissa Spolar - Melissa: In so many of my career journeys, I do feel like my male colleagues and supervisors rarely wanted to give me credit for things. In fact, many would openly take credit for things that I had done. The few times I tried to advocate for myself to get credit for my work, I felt the tension, as if my ego was the problem. It took me until my 30’s to recognize patterns of misogyny in the workplace. The more my confidence grew in my professional abilities, and the more I did advocate for myself, I could see it bothering male colleagues and superiors. It eventually dawned on me that any comments I had received in the workplace about asking too many questions, being ‘too opinionated,’ or trying to optimize things rather than just ‘do what I’m told,’ had come almost entirely from men. The times I had been complimented and encouraged for the very same things had come almost entirely from women. During one particular meeting addressing relational issues on a leadership team, a male colleague expressed frustration at me for how I sometimes questioned or disagreed with his opinions. This was an equal of mine who regularly questioned, disagreed with, and challenged me. And yet, me ever doing the same felt disrespectful to him. It was eye opening to realize how much the male ego can still have in the workplace, even by well-meaning men who probably think of themselves as egalitarian. I think there are times as a woman where you can’t just stay in a place where you’re disrespected. You can’t flourish if you’re stuck in a workplace where that kind of culture is not only invisible, but also the people perpetuating it are the ones in power. It was time for me to get out and start my own thing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/95fe6aa8-e88c-4709-8da7-2b0df4621e74/635209BA-6A3B-4490-A12E-7220B467083D.png Blog - Interview with Melissa Spolar - MLA: You’ve obviously had your hat in a lot of rings, especially enterprises in male-dominated fields like we’ve been discussing. I’m wondering what advice you might give to other women who want to venture professionally and personally into spaces that are typically male-oriented. Melissa: Ok this is me quoting Jenna Ortega, who’s actually quoting someone else, but it’s relevant! I struggled a ton with imposter syndrome over the course of my life. “Can I really do it, I don’t even know if I can pull it off,” you know, all the common things we women say to ourselves. And then I saw this clip from Jenna Ortega, and she was talking about how she was learning the cello for the Wednesday Addams role, and that her teacher effectively told her to enter the world with the confidence of the average white male. And I went, “Wait a minute—yes!” Because so many of us women enter spaces feeling things out, and we’re a little timid, and we don’t want to step on anybody’s toes, and we want to earn our place; and yet how many average white males with no more intelligence, or skills, or experience than we women have, bust into that space and start telling people what to do left and right, and the rest of us just put up with it! So if men can pull off these outrageous levels of confidence in the workplace, why can’t women? If people push back on women taking leadership and confidence roles, we at least know we can back it up with our skills and intelligence most of the time. So many women are just as capable (if not more capable) than their male counterparts, but there’s so many messy cultural dynamics that we women face: not wanting to come off cocky, or step on toes. But that’s where I want to reiterate my new favorite phrase to the women reading: “why not you?” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/66c52f1c-6a2b-4081-afb7-a97acf061350/IMG_4162.png Blog - Interview with Melissa Spolar - MLA: From the outside looking in, I’ve observed that your lifestyle seems to be one of tenacity and a sense of fearlessness, but I’d like to hear from you what you think are some of your key strengths that have contributed the most to your successes? Melissa: I feel like I can’t not mention the community around me. There are so many people in my life who have physically and personally helped me with stuff, or who have hopped on the phone to talk me through how to do things. Supported me as I called in tears when something didn’t work. I couldn’t have done any of this without a support system in place, and that’s something that does take nurturing. Relationships are mutual, you’ve got to invest in them, and I say that to say I am super thankful for the community I have. It’s something that I have been incredibly intentional to maintain, to make sure I nurture and make time for. Yeah, I also have to shout out therapy, too. Couldn’t have made it to where I am now without some really good therapy [laughs]. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/316ed8b7-e493-4324-b67a-232271bbab0c/IMG_8038.png Blog - Interview with Melissa Spolar - MLA: Any last things you’d like to mention, or would like the world to know? Melissa: With almost every step in my journey, all of these accomplishments you’re listing out, with every single one I had someone telling me, “Melissa, that’s not a good idea.” When I was going to build my first tiny house some people in my own family were telling me not to do it. Others were asking, “Can you do that? Can you even do that?” “Are you going to even like living in a tiny house?” So many people just didn’t think it was a good idea. But I just knew I wanted to make it happen. With the tiny house, I had people telling me it wasn’t a good idea. Then I went to seminary, and I had people telling me women shouldn’t be pastors. In the coffee world I had people telling me, “who are you to have opinions?” Even with the upcoming social club, I’ve had people respond skeptically like, “you’re going to sublease a coffee shop? And do events in the evenings? That’s not going to be profitable.” And I’m like, we’ll see! It’s not your money on the line. Also, many people don’t realize this, but there’s actually so many resources available for people looking to start a business. I know the state of California has the Small Business Development Association, which I imagine there’s an equivalent for every state in the US, but it’s literally just local resource centers where you get to meet with successful business people for free advising. It’s crazy. When I was looking into doing the Passport for the first time, I reached out to the SBDC and that same day I got set up with a free consulting session with a tax professional, legal advisor, a sales advisor, and every single person gave me a check list of things I’d need to do. You don’t have to do it on your own, there are a ton of free resources out there. https://www.gmtw.org/blog/feminist-films-amp-shows-to-watch-this-summer monthly 0.5 2025-07-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/9fd45bcf-1ef6-4c59-8648-8d08c34ddbea/Screen+Shot+2025-07-22+at+12.16.15+PM.jpg Blog - Feminist TV to Watch this Summer - Make it stand out Pictured: The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, from Page Six https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/23c907c8-767b-4620-91fb-56e5b0490acd/Screen+Shot+2025-07-22+at+12.43.57+PM.jpg Blog - Feminist TV to Watch this Summer - Make it stand out PHOTOGRAPH BY GEORGE KRAYCHYK / HULU https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/5bbe12b3-5403-432f-8a5b-f2c65096ea94/Screen+Shot+2025-07-22+at+12.50.08+PM.jpg Blog - Feminist TV to Watch this Summer - Make it stand out Photo from IMDb https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/35ef0a3b-4bee-4a28-bc62-7b76dc61a68e/Screen+Shot+2025-07-22+at+1.08.28+PM.jpg Blog - Feminist TV to Watch this Summer - Make it stand out Erin Simkin / Hulu https://www.gmtw.org/blog/human-trafficking-is-all-around-us-this-is-how-to-identify-it monthly 0.5 2022-08-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/3229947f-e212-40cd-a91d-5823a8030e97/volkan-olmez-wESKMSgZJDo-unsplash.jpg Blog - Human trafficking is all around us: this is how to identify it - Every 1 in 200 people around the globe is a victim of human trafficking. 70% of those victims are women and young girls. https://www.gmtw.org/blog/best-brands-for-ethical-fashion monthly 0.5 2022-05-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/90bf5c99-d2b9-4808-a127-2f862c56066c/Screen+Shot+2022-05-04+at+11.59.08+AM.png Blog - Best Brands for Ethical Fashion - Make it stand out Outfit from Kotn https://www.gmtw.org/blog/a-wandering-reflection-of-western-womens-weight-loss monthly 0.5 2022-02-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/dc6bb1f6-230d-45d7-8e11-18336321876c/engin-akyurt-F7x9n1bEgcg-unsplash.jpg Blog - A wandering reflection of Western women’s weight loss - Make it stand out The image of women often seen in advertising, curled up in on themselves so as to take up as little space as possible for the shot. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/9c838467-30ba-46a9-a77a-4664f90cf660/jennifer-burk-ECXB0YAZ_zU-unsplash.jpg Blog - A wandering reflection of Western women’s weight loss - Most Western women spend thousands of hours throughout their life hyper fixating on their physical appearance to appease the male gender. We spend hours at the gym. We spend hours in cardio. We spend hours counting calories. We spend hours counting carbs. We spend hours researching dieting trends. These hours don’t even include the ungodly number of hours we’ve already spent getting ready for the day—tweezing our eyebrows, curling our hair, applying foundation, concealer, under eye corrector, eyeshadow, winged eyeliner, bottom eyeliner, mascara, fake eyelashes, eyebrow pencil, eyebrow freezing gel, lip liner, lipstick, lip plumping serums, powder blush, cream blush, contour, highlighter, bronzer, matte finishing powder, and setting spray—nor do they include the thousands of hours we’ve put into our skincare routine—cleansers, toners, serums, moisturizers, spot treatments, eye creams, and SPF. Point is, women are expected to obsess over their physical appearance, as only the beautiful women will survive in this male-dominated world. But I would argue that this expectation for women to appear at their physical top every day is also an idea implanted by men to keep women from using those same hours they would have spent primping their bodies on education and career growth. Men are incentivized to keep women indoors front of the mirror—whether in a gym or beauty parlor—to maintain their male-dominated monetary structure. https://www.gmtw.org/blog/despite-feminisms-best-efforts-women-are-still-stuck-in-the-home monthly 0.5 2021-10-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1633454625325-QQF5EOPMD52H63RQML6T/1.jpg Blog - Despite feminism’s best efforts, women are still stuck in the home - Make it stand out Gabby Petito https://www.gmtw.org/blog/blog-post-title-two-jj4mr monthly 0.5 2020-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601534860814-DAZSTQWZ66U39JQ8EXG3/photo-1571442463891-5a971009bad5.jpeg Blog - Top Investors for Female Entrepreneurs https://www.gmtw.org/blog/blog-post-title-one-ef2ep monthly 0.5 2020-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601365863703-WZSUIBVB5HAVPXVP5KLJ/photo-1590555659238-ceb4e878e33d.jpeg Blog - Women and Self-Deprecation https://www.gmtw.org/blog/blog-post-title-three-9r9he monthly 0.5 2020-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601535742442-E2NWQUBZVEDTKMI89Q44/photo-1547937084-4d587301a545.jpeg Blog - The Three Waves of U.S. Feminism, Explained https://www.gmtw.org/home1 daily 1.0 2021-07-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1599208366933-S1YLWGFTAF2TZGXN3VRT/1+copy+2.png Home https://www.gmtw.org/empowerment daily 0.75 2020-12-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601021698199-OAOOQQFLFWX0S71BQXRA/photo-1593884934858-7989100a0658.jpeg Empowerment https://www.gmtw.org/workplace daily 0.75 2020-10-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601028123697-6J1SR60RMUB15B9L1ADN/photo-1554325109-87755d48a3fb.jpeg Workplace https://www.gmtw.org/around-the-world daily 0.75 2026-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601020789437-5LUNVWDMU1EXOPLBYTRX/photo-1552113125-81af17f36b57.jpeg Around the World https://www.gmtw.org/children daily 0.75 2020-10-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601018933514-Q91KPSDUU4L3VK2S3YF9/photo-1476234251651-f353703a034d.jpg Children https://www.gmtw.org/disparity daily 0.75 2022-06-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601020947218-IO5TNEE71X7NSYZ1TYT3/photo-1517387163974-42f761d22322.jpeg Disparity https://www.gmtw.org/violence-and-sexual-harrassment daily 0.75 2022-04-14 https://www.gmtw.org/credible-sources daily 0.75 2022-04-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601019589880-7C9I7JK26NVRVA5D8UW9/photo-1566069382655-77dcede46ef2.jpeg Credible Sources https://www.gmtw.org/religion daily 0.75 2021-04-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601022050765-H3T4FHK2QMNC85UEHT11/photo-1527938861934-666a754e21e4.jpeg Religion https://www.gmtw.org/about-1 daily 0.75 2026-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1600471825807-HC4IZ6ADIA1WHA4NPK2C/photo-1497487231007-0a45e7b4b68a.jpeg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef0db5aa55c4f518146e99f/1601483751670-4MK78ZEQBLXLB31GYJPQ/unnamed.jpg About - Debbie McLeod currently lives in Houston and spends a great deal of time in New York City.
