Vanessa Haldane

I am chatting today with Vanessa Haldane from ‘Journey to Worthy’ to discuss the topic of worthiness. Vanessa has the most inspiring and powerful story. She has experienced and moved forward through ongoing childhood traumas and adversity to find a new path and discover her feelings of worth.

Have you ever felt unworthy?

Unfortunately, it’s a feeling that most of us experience throughout our lives. Trauma from our past leads us to feeling undeserving, not good enough and can lead to toxic relationships.

By taking ownership of her story, Vanessa has transformed it into lighting up the lives of others.

After Vanessa worked with Marie Claire on a coercive control campaign countless women and men reached out to her to talk about their own situations as they began to recognise red flags in their own relationships.

Vanessa shares her incredibly powerful story and the path that led her to beginning ‘Journey to Worthy’. She passionately advocates for women who have gone through coercive control and physical abuse to break through the cycle of shame and guilt.

We continue on to discuss the importance of feeling comfortable and loving our own bodies, red flags to look out for in relationships, and how ‘Journey to Worthy’ can help and support men as well as women.

Vanessa Haldane is definitely in my top five global examples of women owning their power through their story. She is one of the most courageous, inspirational and compassionate women I have ever met.

I encourage everyone, both men and women, to listen to her story and together we can work to change our mindset around self worth, begin to heal, and understand that we’re all deserving of love and happiness.
