ABOUT VANESSA

Coach- Consultant- Speaker

Mindfulness/Meditation Teacher

I’m the granddaughter of a knight—renowned psychiatrist Sir Victor Borg—and Norwegian singer and actress Ingeborg Cook. Captain James Cook, the legendary British explorer who charted Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, and vast stretches of the Pacific, is my great-grandfather—eight generations removed.
 
I trained under global peace leader Azim Khamisa, whose work is recognized by the Dalai Lama and the United Nations. I’ve lived an alcohol-free life for over 24 years, hold certifications in Reiki, Yoga, and Mindfulness, and spent three years living and teaching in a meditation center after graduating from SMU.
 
I studied with indigenous communities in the Sonoran Desert of Mexico, trekked through the Amazon, and traveled the world—only to realize: wherever you- go, there you- are. And that forgiving the unforgivable is possible.
 
I was raised in a family of intelligence and affluence, but beneath it all lived addiction, alcoholism, and a haunting emotional disconnect. Like all families, we were complex, imperfect, and deeply human—entwined with both profound betrayal and immense love. These experiences—both inherited and transformed—fuel my work.
 
My keynotes, workshops, and 1:1 sessions blend lived experience with science-backed mindfulness to cultivate complete clarity, resilience, and healing. From high-performing leaders in U.S. boardrooms to individuals rebuilding their lives in Australian prisons, I’ve had the privilege of guiding breakthroughs at every level of the human experience.
 
Whether you’re leading a company, recovering from burnout, or breaking generational cycles—I’m here. Let’s begin. Call now.
