Kind words from wonderful people
“Joining the midlife mamas’ group with Vanessa was one of the best things I've done for myself in a long time. I gained joy, clarity, support, comfort, and ease. I would do it again in a heartbeat.”
Maggie V.
"Vanessa is a fantastic coach! She offers warmth, humor, and compassion while listening deeply and asking insightful questions. I've recently had a couple of areas in my life where I've been feeling stuck, and Vanessa's coaching has been instrumental in discovering effective solutions. I highly recommend Vanessa as a coach."
Sarah T.
“Vanessa was an essential member of my recent book launch team. She brought organization, creativity, and accountability to the project. Not only was she able to put together a thorough marketing plan, but she also created copy that stayed true to my brand and voice, something that was very important to me. Her project management and communication skills were top-notch and provided all key milestones on time, exceeding expectations. Highly recommend!”
— Sarah Lascano, RayZen Energy
“I thoroughly enjoyed working with Vanessa.
She’s very knowledgeable, and one of her strong suits, which is a weakness of mine, is creating a roadmap and connecting all of the dots. I had all the destinations, but I didn’t know how to get everywhere, and she helped me figure out a clear path to all of my destinations, as well as condensed down how many destinations I can visit at once.
As a new cell CEO, I felt really comfortable with Vanessa by my side. I felt like she was really holding my hand and guiding me through this uncharted territory, and I think that one of the greatest gifts someone can receive is to feel like they are working with a friend who is cheering them on every step of the way.”
