95. The Best Decision We Ever Made with Vanessa McDonald
Kim and Kezia chat with Vanessa McDonald, creator of The Best Decision We Ever Made.
A former "Mommy Wine Club" president and neighborhood party co-CEO, Vanessa has been alcohol-free since March 16, 2020. Her inspiration for this book simply came from recognizing a need for a similar resource back when she was wrestling her own relationship with alcohol. After joining a non-traditional online recovery support group, Vanessa heard others share their relatable experiences and profound wisdom, and she knew that she too had to make a change. In this judgement-free recovery space, she discovered she wasn't alone and that connection with like-minded individuals was necessary to staying on her alcohol-free path.
Vanessa is a busy, adventure-loving mom of four: Landon (13), Layla (12), Parker (10), and Paxton (9). She's an enneagram 7, an Aries, and a loyal Kansas Jayhawks fan. She was born on Good Friday AND Friday the 13th. With a passion for growth and development, Vanessa has over 20 years of change management experience, partnering with senior executives to assist them in the simplification and implementation of complex strategic initiatives. She is recognized for her contagious energy and ability to connect people and ideas. Today Vanessa enjoys her simple, rewarding life in lowa as a full-time consultant, sports mom (now without alcoholic beverages in her Yeti), and a friend to many.
