Biography for Vanessa Lee, CMH

At the age of 5 years old, Vanessa underwent her first eye surgery to repair a torn retina. Consequently, losing her vision in her right eye and being declared Visually Impaired. She began the journey of restrictions as society began to create the narrative of her limitations in all areas of her life. The world’s portrait of her maximum capabilities never made much sense to her. She was fueled with a passion and an insatiable lust for life and love and nature and adventure.

Vanessa’s vision impairment didn’t feel like a deterrent rather creating a growing wonder, curiosity, and determination to silence the voices surrounding her. Fighting the masses of naysayers, she rejected the options presented before her. Being guided to learn Braille and being led to accept her "only successful path" as a Court Reporter, a suggestion that never felt fulfilling or of truth and of purpose. Creating a discord between the majority and self. A discord that could not be tempered.

She rejected this limiting belief and remained loyal to her heart’s desires to do, to be, and to create more. A continuous series of eye surgeries left her completely blind at the age of 16 years old. At this time she began her journey of trusting herself and her abilities to navigate the world around her, utilizing her other senses. After a 6 month period, regaining limited sight, she remained steadfast in her quest to live life with greater appreciation for her limited vision.

Whilst always feeling she saw and understood the world better than most. With heightened awareness and full focus on attention and intention to the service of others, accessibility, and pushing past any and all limitations. She enjoyed going to the deepest depths of self and learning empowerment by loss and gain. She knew with absolute certainty, they are not mutually exclusive but mutually necessary.

Embracing her intensified awareness of self and gratitude in seeing the world differently than others. Determined to learn as much as she could about humans and their perception and greater potential. Embarking on a solo quest for living fully without boundaries. Vanessa declares she has 20/20 vision, albeit, quite differently than others may expect.

She embraces the greatest gifts of sight, as she creates a practice dedicated to being a Navigator to all those who are unable to see their maximum potential. Pushing past uncomfort and discomfort in a safe and loving manner.
