Melissa Cain is a Northwoods resort owner based in north central Wisconsin, a proud mother of three, and a devoted wife to her supportive husband. After a spontaneous spiritual awakening in 2016, her life transformed completely—leading her to leave the corporate world, move out of Chicago, reimagine how she raised her children, and fully dedicate herself to exploring the nature of consciousness and human potential.

Now rooted in Wisconsin, Melissa is the founder of the CONTACT Modalities XPO in Delavan, a groundbreaking, heart-centered experiential event that bridges cutting-edge science and spirituality. The XPO brings together some of the world’s leading voices in consciousness to explore topics such as UFO research, breathwork, telepathy, sound therapy, quantum hypnosis, psychedelics, near-death experiences, and more.

Through immersive experiences, attendees are invited to explore a wide range of modalities, discover what resonates most deeply with them, and continue their own journey of awakening. Melissa’s mission is to inspire connection, elevate consciousness, and empower others to live more authentic, aligned lives—contributing to the healing and transformation of our world.

The 2026 Contact Modalites XPO takes place May 1-3, at Lake Lawn Resort, 2400 E Geneva St, Delavan, WI.

Melissa visits with Talking Weird to chat about what's in store for attendees at Contact Modalities this year. (Which will include Talking Weird's Dean Bertram screening his multi-award winning short documentary THE SHAVER MYSTERY, and presenting on more aspects of the "mystery".)

She will also be talking about her own awakening and experiences.

This is a fascinating episode, which explores the deepest regions of human consciousness and beyond... to contact with "the other".
