Vanessa, aware of the dangers which lures the Younger Generation, goes into Schools and shares on matters such as:                          

• Bullying,
• Identity,
• Drug Trafficking Awareness
• Speak-Up
• Depression
• Pornography

She does counseling at schools and often takes Students to court to witness young people being sentenced, for crimes they have committed. This gives many students a life changing perspective against crime, and helps keep them from being caught up in it.

At Universities, Vanessa engages with Students on matters such as stress and depression and how to manage it, Human and Drug Trafficking, pre-marital sex and its consequences and how to focus on their studies.

Vanessa runs a Life Skill Programme called “Obstacles Of Success”. This programme is based  on her experience in prison and the obstacles she had to overcome. It teaches how to use your obstacles as stepping stones, how to activate your talents and how to reach your goals.

Vanessa offers the  “Obstacles Of Success” Life Skill Programmes to Schools and School Leavers. Using her experiences and the obstacles she had to overcome, Vanessa motivates, encourages, teaches and equips students with practical tools to use obstacles as stepping stones. These programmes are geared to build the confidence of students, to activate their potential, their talents and to help them break out of the boundaries of limitation which society, poor choices, circumstances and the like, tend  to  weave  around  the  younger generation.

This program  has successfully completed with Grade 11 & 12  Students, School Leavers as well as with adults with disabilities.
