Hi, I’m VANESSA CLACK.
Though I haven’t always been a Leadership Coach, I have always been within the leadership community.
Prior to Leadership Coaching, I gained over 33 years corporate experience in South Africa. My experience includes; project management, business analyst, new business development, interface design and layout, developed and implemented full training, presentation development and implementation, and management of large teams.
During my immigration to America there was a period of two years of which I was not allowed to work. It was then that I joined the John Maxwell team and became a certified coach, speaker and trainer.
My enjoyment and passion for thriving leaders and my own personal leadership growth grew as I joined Toastmasters, a Public Speaking Club, in 2021 of which I am currently the President.
The combination of my own personal experiences of some hard leadership lessons from back in South Africa, my top tiered leadership training and ongoing education only solidify my passion of the importance of great leadership and how it is needed in today's society.
I have endured many life challenges which has grown me and strengthened me in so many areas.
I thank my Lord God for restoring my marriage after being divorced for 3 years. It was a painful time but I am so thankful for all the guidance and wisdom I gained through this experience. Moving from South Africa to America in 2017 with a very broken marriage was another challenge that I faced which helped me rise above and helped me achieve more than I could have ever imagined.
This transformation has lead me to keep looking ahead to keep trusting and having faith knowing that God is so for us in every situation. Through all of this my drive and passion is to help others to believe in themselves to take that leap of faith that the dreams God has placed within them can be accomplished
I believe in knowing who you were created to be and living in your full purpose; serving those around you and learning and growing from life challenges, opportunities and relationships that have impacted you.
I believe in perseverance to accept and adapt to change and always to look forward with anticipation.
I believe that setbacks are there to teach us the life skills we need to overcome and move forward - Integrity and authenticity are vital to being successful and experiencing happiness.
I believe that there is always opportunity to try something again after not getting to right the first time. I am thankful for these experiences as they have lead me to who I am today and helped me to overcome many challenges.
I am a wife, mother, Nana, entrepreneur, speaker and a coach who is passionate about helping others ignite into their full purpose so they can be instrumental in impacting and bringing transformation to those around them. I discovered my purpose in 2019 and I've coached individuals and groups both personally and professionally.
