Corporate Escapee
To 7-figure CEo
ABOUT VANESSA
In 2018, after climbing the
corporate ladder at a Fortune 500
company, and hating it, I took
the leap of faith and quit. After
saying goodbye to my prestigious
cubicle, I found myself back at
square one: working minimum
wage as a coffee barista.
While serving lattes and mastering the art of
small talk, I started sharing social media
strategies online. When my tips started gaining
popularity on the internet, I began offering
online services and digital courses.
In less than a year,
I had already built
a 6 figure business.
Today, my team has grown and we run a multi-million dollar company dedicated to helping corporate escapees, content creators, and new coaches expand their reach and build incredible businesses using social media, just like I did.
Our mission is to open the door to life- changing opportunities and prove that it’s possible - and fun! - to build a wildly successful digital career that offers freedom, income and impact.

Favourite WFH Playlist
I love 2000s throwbacks. If I need to focus, I throw on piano or acoustic instrumentals because my brain can’t focus when there’s lyrics. For admin work, I usually put on a netflix show in the background 🙂 I’m a sucker for trash reality TV.

Fun fact about me
A fun fact about me is I get hyped when it rains or when the weather is gloomy. I don't just feel excitement, but it makes me productive as well. I feel like I want to take a stroll outside, or even go to a mall or something. I just have that urge to do a lot of things or go somewhere new when it's raining. LOL

OUR MISSION
IS SIMPLE.
To open the door to life changing
opportunities and prove that it’s
possible - and fun! -to build a wildly
successful digital career that offers
freedom, income and impact.
It’s time to help content creators, coaches, & corporate escapees get visible AND get paid.
WHAT WE CARE ABOUT
Belief #1
We take extreme ownership
of our success.
This belief also carries over to how we
empower our clients and community, whether
it’s through our content, interactions, and
programs. To us, quality and focus matters. Our goal is to create an
environment
where leaders walk the talk, take action,
and own their results, 100%.
Belief #2
We stay involved.

mates, audience members, and our
world
community. We always do our very best to make sure our
people feel seen,

experiences with
the impact we make.
Belief #3
There is no failure, only feedback.
We know that any feedback is good
feedback because that is the only way we
can
grow. Collecting as much data as we
can from each other and those around us
allows
us to make sound decisions in
business and in life. We don’t take our work
personally and we know that there is always
room to do better, and be better.

Inclusivity matters.
Our company continuously reflects and
invests in resources to widen our lens to be
more inclusive to other races, sexual
orientations, ages, and ability statuses as

run our programs, support our students,
and do business. Our top priority is for
our clients and community to feel seen,
appreciated, and respected. We continue to
learn in public, and are always working
towards using our platform, time, and
resources to create even more inclusivity
inside and outside our programs.
