Statement from Vanessa's website:
THE PURPOSE OF MY LIFE is to be courageous and free--to be, do and say the exact thing that will move me and others from pain to healing, from hate to love, from control to trust, and from fear to full self-expression--so that we can all live out the joy and power of being who we were made to be.
