Episode Description
Vanessa is 44. She immigrated to the US alone at 17, put her brother through college, raised a daughter, and built a life through sheer force of will. By every measure, she has done remarkable things. And yet something has gone quiet. The greatness she knows is in her feels out of reach. The life she's living doesn't match the one she was meant for.
This is Episode 1 of Quest — a real-time coaching documentary following real people on their journeys of personal transformation. No scripts. No highlight reels. Just the actual work.

THE FELLOWSHIP
A small, intimate coaching fellowship for people in their 40s and 50s who are ready to finally start the thing they've been putting off — before they miss their chance.
It isn't a course. It's a real process, with real people.
I'm working with a small founding group — and there may be space for one or two more. If this is your season, learn more and apply here:
