Bailey is joined by CEO + Editor-in-Chief of Bella Magazine Vanessa Coppes to talk about all that it takes to reach your dreams.
Vanessa not only is an author, multimedia entrepreneur and mom but is one of only five Latina women in the U.S. to helm an international magazine, something she dreamed of since she was a kid. Having gone through depression, many jobs and roadblocks along the way, Coppes is here today to inspire you with her amazing journey of recovery and success.
Vanessa and Bailey dive deep into the importance of connection, learning and giving back, what helps Vanessa live both sides of her life – life’s challenges & being in the media – the importance of sharing your story and how to take care of your inner self.
Success is a long-lasting journey built with unpredictable ups and downs. It is built on risk, change, and personal development. This path teaches you to cope with failure, get up anyway, and push forward towards your dreams. Success is rarely a smooth type of journey, if you want to succeed you must have the resilience to face the inevitable and the willingness to work hard.
