Vanessa
Vanessa Randall is a dedicated volunteer and community builder who believes in the power of service to change lives. She has spent over fifteen years helping people “breathe easy,” both literally and figuratively, as a registered respiratory therapist, caregiver, and sister by heart. Known by many as a " Janae of all trades"—ranging from non-profit board work to coordinating congregational and alumni initiatives—Vanessa has crafted a life focused on enhancing self-care while empowering others. She serves as a media coordinator on the board of The Tabitha Outreach Foundation (Avinger, TX), serving orphans, widows, and fatherless in southwest Kenya, and a volunteer board member of the Baton Rouge High Foundation (Baton Rouge, LA), supporting high school alumni engagement. In addition to serving her community, she enjoys spending time with her husband of eleven years, Eric, and their 18-year-old miniature poodle, Charlie Brown; taking short trips to link up with never-lost friends; and planning gatherings for The Furnished Table, a fellowship collective for women seeking refreshing soul-care. Vanessa offers an authentic, empathetic perspective to her discussions on social well-being, family advocacy, and resilient community engagement, highlighting how blending skills with compassionate advocacy can spread the blessings of every fruit of the Spirit.
