Vanessa Cardenas: Inspiring Transformation through Podcasts, Workshops, and Speaking Engagements

My Mission

I believe relationships ebb and flow, too often we become complacent partners, unable to string together meaningful words. My mission is to resurrect the art of communication and resuscitate the heart yearning for connection, helping individuals and couples transform their relationships into spaces of trust, intimacy, and authenticity.

Through our Initial Foundation Sessions, clients discover HOPE (Hold On, Pain Ends) and receive a curated roadmap tailored exclusively to their unique relationship needs. I focus on providing compassionate, actionable guidance - saying what needs to be said, not just what's easy to hear - because

...every heart deserves to feel seen, heard, and deeply connected.

Highly recommended!

Host of Love You Now Conference, 2023

I'm the host of the Forgive and Thrive podcast, and I recently had a beautiful conversation with Vanessa Cardenas on a topic that many can relate to: infidelity and how one can recover from it.

Vanessa is a wonderful speaker, a joy to talk to, and a guest that requires NO editing—always appreciated!

She served my audience with so much value, relevant information, and tips, graciously answering all my questions. If you are looking for a guest to cover infidelity and betrayal, I sincerely recommend Vanessa Cardenas.

I saw you speak at the Love Now conference, and you were so inspirational. You are a wonderful speaker with a powerful message, and I was sitting on the edge of my seat listening the whole time. Anyone looking fir a guest would be gifted by your appearance on their podcast. Keep sharing your wisdom with the masses. It's truly transformational.

You were a fantastic guest!! Thanks so much for showing up as You!

Jean Border

Vanessa is a truly inspiring speaker and podcast guest. It's clear to me that she has lived her own story and uses her own message to help others. The logo for my podcast is a rising Phoenix, signifying rebirth from tragedy and adversity. It's clear that Vanessa has taken the mindset of growth from tragedy and embodies the physical representation of the Phoenix rising better, stronger, and wiser from the flames of adversity. I truly hope her message reaches and inspires those of us who are battling with one of the most unique and deep sources of pain, heartbreak through betrayal, to do the same."

Testimonial

Vanessa Cardenas's presentation at the Warrior Women Within Summit was a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of betrayal.

As a seasoned Betrayal Recovery Specialist and transformational coach, Vanessa's talk resonated deeply with attendees as she shared powerful personal stories, vulnerability, and insights on betrayal recovery. Her enthusiasm and passion for her work were palpable, creating an atmosphere of empowerment and inspiration.

Vanessa's presentation went beyond just sharing stories; she provided actionable steps on how to reclaim personal power and quiet one’s “nasty chick voice”. Her expertise, grounded in the Hindsight Window theory, allowed attendees to reframe negative events and see betrayal as an opportunity for growth, gratitude, and renewed purpose.

Vanessa's dedication to guiding individuals on the path to healing and empowering them to reach their full potential was evident throughout her presentation, making it a standout session at the summit. Her unwavering commitment to self-love, self-trust, and personal transformation left a lasting impact on everyone.
