Your Guide.

Vanessa Hagerbaumer
Certified Authentic Leadership Coach

“I interviewed over 100 professional women about how confidence and imposter syndrome show up in our lives and careers. The patterns were clear, and deeply relatable.

I created The Greatness to help us name those challenges, normalize them, and build skills to move through them with compassion and courage.

This program brings together a handpicked group of women to grow in a safe, brave, and confidential space, because some challenges are better met together.”

 

They took the leap. So can you.

  • Sarah Hunt, LMSW, CST

    CERTIFIED SEX & RELATIONSHIP THERAPIST

    If you are thinking about it, do it!

    I was hesitant to join at first because of the financial investment. Looking back, I would continue to pay this amount every week for the rest of the year.

  • Anna Lawton

    CEO & CO-FOUNDER, QUALITATIVE RESEARCH & STRATEGY AGENCY

    The Greatness was incredibly powerful. Working through shared challenges with other accomplished, thoughtful women helped me realize I’m not alone, which was profoundly validating.

    The readings, conversations, and mindset shifts really stuck with me.

    I came in craving community and left feeling deeply encouraged and seen.

  • Jenna Pavlak

    DIRECTOR OF HUMAN RESOURCES

    I joined to find clarity in my career, and came away with so much more.

    The program challenged how I think, connected me with seven inspiring women, and helped me grow personally and professionally.

    I highly recommend it to anyone ready to think differently and grow deeply.

  • Spring 2025 Cohort Member

    The Greatness gave me practical tools and insights I still use, and helped me process both professional challenges and personal relationships in ways I didn’t expect.

    I felt seen, supported, and reminded that I’m not alone. I especially valued the reflection exercises and learned how much growth happens when I stop avoiding discomfort.

    If you’re looking for clarity, connection, and real change, this program delivers.

  • Joanna Micek

    LIVE EVENT PRODUCER

    The Greatness is one of the most thoughtful, energizing coaching programs I’ve experienced.

    I joined at a career crossroads, and Vanessa’s framework gave me space to reflect, reset, and envision a more authentic future. The peer group was incredible—generous, wise, and inspiring.

    I’d recommend The Greatness to anyone craving meaningful time with their present and future selves.
