Vanesa Castillo
Empowerment & Leadership Coach for Women in Business
Vanesa Castillo is a certified holistic life and leadership coach with 25+ years of corporate experience in the pharmaceutical industry, including over two decades in leadership. Originally trained as a molecular biologist, she rose through the ranks to lead international teams across the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific within the corporate pharmaceutical industry. Her work has spanned scientific rigor, global data operations, and high-stakes decision-making—yet her most meaningful transformation happened outside the boardroom.
After navigating divorce, perimenopause, and her daughter leaving for college, Vanesa faced a deep internal reckoning. Though outwardly successful, she felt unfulfilled, anxious, and disconnected from her purpose. She turned inward, rebuilding through nutrition, fitness, and self-discovery. That journey sparked her calling to help other professional women step into their next chapter with confidence and clarity.
Through her business, VNC Clarity, Vanesa now empowers women 40+ —especially those navigating leadership transitions, identity shifts, or burnout—to reconnect with their authentic voice. Her coaching blends neuroscience-informed mindset work, Jay Shetty Coaching School tools, and lived wisdom. Clients appreciate her warm presence, strategic thinking, and ability to ask powerful questions that unlock lasting clarity and confidence.
Vanesa specializes in helping women reclaim their voice in corporate and leadership settings, redefine purpose or transition phases, and embody calm authority in high-stakes environments. She offers 1:1 coaching packages ranging from one month to six months and integrates holistic wellness principles when aligned to her clients’ goals.
Whether you're a seasoned professional at a crossroads or a leader craving more meaning, Vanesa helps you rise from clarity—with courage and purpose.
