It’s Refreshing to See this Way of “Being” in Business
Over the past few years, I’ve been in awe of Vanessa’s passionate commitment to examining, owning and sharing her personal truth and power (and guiding others to do the same) with a unique blend of gentleness, courage, fierce compassion and curiosity. It’s refreshing to see this way of “being” in business.
I am Being Seen as Exactly Who I Wish to be in the World
Working with Vanessa (and Stacy too!) has definitely helped meshift into an entirely new business mindset. Vanessa is so generous with her knowledge and she really wants you to succeed; she helps you in such a kind and supportive way.
Thanks to her help, I’ve transitioned from a 13-year corporate job that was no longer satisfying and nourishing into a new position that I am creating on a daily basis, charting my own course, and being seen as exactly who I wish to be in the world. While this can be kind of scary, Vanessa has really been a huge inspiration and guide through this whole process.
I highly recommend working with her if you’re looking to weave the practical right along with the magic and mystical into your business. —Misha Cain Nell
Vanessa is is dedicated to uplifting others and creating community through her work
Vanessa is a gifted leader and helped me immensely during our 1:1 session when I was looking for guidance with the next steps in my business. The oracle card she pulled for me was “Overestimate your Intuition” and that has been a beacon for me ever since. I consider Vanessa as a role model for how to run a sacred business online. She is dedicated to uplifting others and creating community through her work. —April McMurtry @themoonismycalendar
I Can’t Think of Anyone Better to Guide Us into Creating Sustainable Spiritual Businesses with Integrity
Vanessa embodies all four Queens of the Tarot: She is an open-hearted, kind and loving Queen of Cups; she is a practical, down-to-earth, get-it-done Queen of Pentacles; she is a fiery, transformative, passionate Queen of Wands; and she is a fierce Queen of Swords who keeps her own boundaries firm. I can’t think of anyone better to guide us into creating sustainable spiritual businesses with integrity. –Joanna Powell Colbert
Vanessa Guides You Towards New Heart-Centred Ways To Do Business
Working with Vanessa has helped my business as well as helped me personally and spiritually in so many ways. Vanessa’s work helps you to see that there is so much more to running a spiritual business than SEO keywords and Instagram Algorithms.
Vanessa will remind you of why you are here in the first place. She helps you to understand your calling, how to create and build community in authentic and loving ways and she guides you towards new heart-centred ways to do business.
Vanessa’s energy is gentle, loving and quietly powerful. She holds space in a way that makes you always feel safe, heard and welcome.
She teaches through beautifully put together programs and content, but the real teaching happens when you watch what Vanessa does, how she speaks, how she holds and loves all those in her community and how she moves through the world with so much grace. –Vix Maxwell, New Age Hipster
Vanessa Embodies and Models a Radically Different and So Desperately Needed Way of Leading and Doing Business
Working with Vanessa over the last couple of years, both through her group programmes and through 1:1 mentoring with her, has been a real blessing. It has changed me and my work in profound ways, and it continues to do so.
Vanessa takes the time and energy to truly get to know you and your work. She is interested in the essence and the intricacies of who you are, what you do and why -not just the general idea. I have worked with several coaches and mentors over the years I have been in business, and I have never felt as deeply seen and understood as I have with Vanessa.
She is encouraging and supportive, without ever being pushy. You can feel at all times that she honestly believes in you and what you have to offer the world, and that she really cares. In my experience, there is nothing more motivating and reassuring than that.
Her communities are some of the safest, most loving and healing spaces I have ever been in, filled with wonderful, heart-centred womxn, who are always there for each other. I deeply appreciate the openness and inclusivity, and the fact that each person is invited to explore and discover what is true and right for them -there is no ‘one size fits all’ there.
One of the most inspiring things about Vanessa is that she teaches through example, from her own lived experience and that she really walks her talk. The heart and vulnerability that she shows up with allows you to relate to her, feel safe and never judged. At the same time, her academic background and rich knowledge in many fields makes everything feel more grounded, and whole.
To me, she embodies and models a radically different and so desperately needed way of leading, doing business and just being a real, kind and caring human being in the world. -Stella Stathi MA, MBACP Reg.
Vanessa Sage is Pure Magic!
Over the past several years I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate, work with, and be supported by Vanessa.
Authenticity, intuitive wisdom, and heart-centered presence flows through every facet of her life, especially her business and work.
She knows how to pull back the veil and reveal the magic ‘Behind the Magic’ while opening doors to creating a true heart-centred business and life.
I Am Stepping into Leadership in a Way That Empowers Both Myself and Others
I can truly say that I am stepping into leadership in a way that empowers both myself and others. With the support of this program, I have further developed my understanding of how to hold space for others, my commitment to presence, and my sense of confidence in what I have to share.
I have begun to frame my work as a teacher as a sacred practice, and have been utilizing the tools I have learned in this program to support children and families. I am expanding into sharing the full spectrum of my gifts with the world, and showing up as my whole self.
I am diving deeper into my magical practices, including plant medicine, tarot, and ritual. I have plans to offer these gifts to a wider audience in the future. I have begun to truly honor my own voice as unique and necessary.
The women in this circle have held such gentle and unconditional space for my evolution as a teacher and healer and person. Many thanks to all of you.
–Maya Phoenix
I Always Learn Something New or See Things from a Different Perspective
I love Vanessa’s courses. There’s no “behind”, no stringent deadlines, no rushing. She’s very gentle, and her partner Stacy is so supportive, too. I don’t find them overwhelming (or underwhelming, for that matter) and I always learn something new or see things from a different perspective. The live calls are always fun and I enjoy them, plus I look forward to them. The space is very safe and confidential, and Vanessa draws some amazing women to her courses, and I am very grateful for being part of the magic she weaves together. – Heather K Veitch
She’s a Perfect Mentor for Mentors
Vanessa demonstrates the amazing offerings of a wise teacher, trusted mentor, and curious soul friend all rolled into one. Her knowledge of Tarot and ceremony is vast and I adore how she combines wisdom with a playful spirit. Even though I’m enrolled as the “student” in her coursework, Vanessa offers listening ears and enthusiasm to also learn from my experience. It is a lovely win-win relationship. She’s a perfect mentor for mentors as well as a professor to individuals stepping into new territories on their spiritual pathway. It’s a pleasure and honor to work with and learn from her.
–Kayce S. Hughlett, MA LMHC author, storyteller, artist of being alive
Vanessa has a way of touching your heart with her stories on her personal journey. Reading about her inner struggles and allowing others to share in her vulnerability is a testimony to the powerful goddess/priestess she is. I find Vanessa to be open, friendly and a breath of fresh air in a world full of hectic momentum. –
Vanessa’s love letters and her tarot readings have provided me with comfort, inspiration, joy and guidance that I return to time and time again. I’m so grateful that she opens up her journey and vulnerabilities to us in a way that is relatable and inspiring
I love the way you lead, gentle, but strong, understanding that we are all at different levels of our journey without judging or pushing, rather by encourage and support us in a loving, gentle way! I love your authenticity and vulnerability in sharing you and your life!
Vanessa’s programs have been transformational for me over the last several years. She holds the space to go deep and do big work. Her knowledge and wisdom are a constant source of inspiration in my life. She also facilitates a strong, safe, and supportive community. This community has helped me to feel into my own truth and to be vulnerable and brave in my sharing. Thank you, Vanessa for all you do!
As a participant in Pull Pen Paint, I enjoy the tarot lessons provided by Vanessa Sage, and her presence in the study sessions always brings me joy as she shares her wisdom with sweet soulful spirit. The way she shares her own journey, as a sensitive and an empath, is inspiring, as I have come to discover I too am a sensitive individual. Vanessa is a wonderful role model in showing up with gentle soul and fierce inner knowing. I look forward to her posts and newsletters!
I love your generosity, authenticity and courage that is so simply and beautifully offered in your writing. Thank you.
Thank you and Stacy both for sharing so vulnerably. I adore you both and love what you’re creating, and the love you bring to your online space. You inspire me daily
Enchant Your Everyday saved my life. Truly, it came to me at a time when I was struggling to make sense of many things in my life and in helping me to find a connection to the natural world and a new way to see my life, it helped me move forward while at the same time, honour the place I was coming from.
I’m so grateful for the way you share, how you show up in the world with such fierce trust and faith. How you connect the ancient mythology of the Goddess with today’s way of priestessing. There is so much permission giving in your presence – like everything that wants to come through me/from me is allowed. I can be as slow, fast, loud and quiet as feels right for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Ready for love and Truth from the biggest heart I know? Then let Vanessa Sage be your guide to your own love, Truth, and goddess path.
Vanessa was a guest teacher in another course I took and when I found out about her Priestess program I knew I finally found what I had been searching for. I’ve been a natural Witch my whole life and I wanted some structured guidence to grow and her program is giving me this. We’ve only completed the first module and it’s already made a huge impact in my life. The support from Vanessa is knowledgeable and nurturing and the women in the program are great, we all communicate well together and add to the support and shared knowledge in a drama free environment. It’s truly an amazing experience so far and I’m looking forward to the other modules. It’s so exciting! Thank you!
Vanessa’s words always seem to land in my inbox exactly when I need them the most. Her voice inspires me to continue to go within and align with my truth. She reminds me that I am so much more than day to day responsibilities. Vanessa beautifully holds the space that I require in order to embody a spirit full of courage and truth.
Vanessa Sage is a brilliant beacon of self care for the sensitive soul. As a creative artist, I lean toward sensitivity to my immediate environment and, often, the world in general. Vanessa is a beautiful reminder to stay grounded in my energy and to protect it, because ‘My energy is sacred’ and it deserves to be protected.
Vanessa’s writing feels like a breath, a moment of spaciousness in a clamouring, crowded day.
The Enchant Your Everyday experience was surprisingly fulfilling for me. It came into my life at a good time (even though I didn’t realize it), and I wasn’t sure what it was or how it was going to work. It really helped me pause in my daily life and take a second (literally) or minute to just breathe and see what was right in front of me as beautiful, instead of thinking 5 steps ahead or an hour ahead of where I actually was. Highly recommend for those that are not otherwise knowledgeable of or participate in spiritual guidance in their lives.
I am not great with expression. YOU have helped me so much. I love reading and listening to all you have to offer. You have inspired me to be a stronger woman. Never stop what you do. You helped me, so I know you help many.
Vanessa has a way of showing up with such bravery and courage that to me imparts a very powerful gift of whispering to others that we can do. I learned how to hold sacred space online by being present to how Vanessa models this in every circle she holds and throughout her incredible Sage Priestess program. I am forever changed and blessed by our meeting, Vanessa.
It fills me with deep gratitude and joy our paths have crossed. I really enjoy her offerings, Tarot Memoires was such a delightful journey followed by the Priestess Training another journey I thoroughly enjoyed, especially Vanessa’s wisdom and the beautiful community she created. I love her sensitive and touching offerings and I always look forward to her Love Letters; a fresh breeze toughing my soul. Deep bow, Alexandra.
Vanessa’s writing is pure poetry and speaks from the heart. I get so much inspiration from her emails.
Vanessa’s Enchant Your Everyday is just the perfect push I need to make each day special. It’s finding pleasure in a flower. Coming out of the hum drum that is so easy to find myself in. When I began recognizing that there is something special to be found in each day, it all fell into place and I didn’t have work hard to find Beauty. Vanessa’s course brought these thoughts to light for me.
Vanessa embodies the living priestess. Her grace, openness, honesty and gentle guidance inspire others as they walk their path and provide the safe, sacred space for the journey to unfold.
Vanessa is non-judgmental and inclusive in her classes. She is quite knowledgeable and has studied priestessing and Goddess religions from many different cultures. She does not push any one particular set of beliefs. She is open, providing the structure, while allowing me to come to my own conclusions. She also brings in many speakers from different paths. She runs her priestess class in an easy to use forum, with scheduled email updates, making it easy to keep up with important dates and tasks. There is no pressure, however, only kindness and encouragement!
Vanessa has an incredible capacity to hold space for transformation! Her calm, strong, light-hearted authenticity is contagious, allowing you to let down your guard and go deeper. I was surprised at how easy it was to trust her and feel held by the safe containers she creates.
The priestess self study course was eye and heart opening in ways that i am still exploring many months later! the materials were very helpful and allowed for self exploration, history, and interaction with community of like-mindeds on several occasions. Vanessa’s knowledge and caring attention allow fearless investigation into all aspects of the divine feminine.
Vanessa’s gentle leadership of the Priestess course shows me, just by being who she is, intelligent and thoughtful ways of being in the world.
Vanessa embodies gentle strength and leads by example. With clear and compassionate guidance, she holds a catalyzing space for deep healing and transformation. I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn from her and all of the incredible women in the Priestess Certification Program.
You’re always so kind, every talk with you is a pleasure! You have lighted the way for me to my self loving journey and connected me with my innerself and goddess spirit. Thanks so much Vanessa!
What a wonderful opportunity Enchant Your Everyday is to connect with your world, as it is, right now. Each time I participate, I learn something new and experience it in a new way.
I enjoy Vanessa’s honesty and willingness to work for a life that is authentic. She is open about her journey in a way most people aren’t.
Vanessa’s offerings are always filled with so much love and thoughtfulness. I’ve enjoyed learning more about goddesses and seeking enchantment through everyday pilgrimage.
Words cannot describe the amount of gratitude I have for Vanessa Sage and the Sage Priestess Programs. I never would have imagined that I would call myself “priestess” in this lifetime until Vanessa opened the Sage Priestess Training. For most of my life, I’ve searched for my life purpose. Vanessa pointed me in the right direction to find my purpose. Now, I know why I am here and what path to follow. Vanessa has so many gifts to offer– she has deep soul wisdom, magical connection to nature, clear expressive writing and practical productivity. She interweaves these gifts with a grounded ability to hold space that is relaxed, safe and inviting. Anyone who works with Vanessa will experience deep nurturing, encouragement and gentle nudges towards their dreams and purpose.
The compassionate place from which Vanessa operates has offered me a loving and safe space for self-exploration, with the gentle guidance from someone who walks the talk of the Divine. She does so with an authenticity and contagious loving energy which makes her a trustworthy facilitator. I appreciate the resonance between our work.
I am truly grateful for all of Vanessa’s offerings. She shares her authenticity, vulnerability and heart-opened Self with every course she creates and shares with the World. Truly one of the best things I have every done for myself is being a part of Vanessa’s loving Community.
Oh my goodness! I love you so much! I have participated in a lot of online classes, quests, workshops etc and also in-person trainings and you are the best! You are so real, so vulnerable, so knowledgeable. Your blog posts touch my heart and soul. I can’t say enough about how much I enjoy what you do.
Vanessa’s quiet urging to listen and flow in my daily life allows me to settle and find a deeper calm – and resolve – as I face the challenges of my life.
Vanessa creates a beautiful, safe, sacred space where women can be their truest selves. Her gentle wisdom is no less powerful for being delivered in such a nurturing way. Being in her presence always fills my soul.
Vanessa infuses her offerings with beauty and authenticity and has empowered me to do the same.
