welcome sweet friends
i’m vicki! (or v!). with over 35 years of experience in training, speaking, coaching, and leadership, i’ve found myself wearing many hats – passionate gatherer, storyteller, leader and community builder. I’ve spent decades learning and growing; my journey teaching me the value of connection and the power in someone's story. And while i’m proud of what i’ve accomplished, i know there’s always more, and more ways to help.

i have worked in youth and nonprofit organizations for 15 years. and in 15 years, vicki abadesco! is the best educator, trainer, and creator of learning i have ever known. i’d go to a workshop on vacuuming if she were running it!
