“You don’t win friends with salad”
Becoming a scuba instructor many years ago made Vanessa realise that fish are friends, not food. Along with cows, pigs, chickens, lamb etc etc. – It gave her the sense of wanting to save the world.
After travelling and working as a marine conservationist, she went back into fashion (her background), and after many attempts to try to make a change within that industry, and getting knocked back every time, she decided to go back to saving the world; But this time starting with herself.
Wanting a job that prioritised herself, the mental health of others, and that understood the importance of her dog, COASTAL was the perfect fit.
