62: Vanessa Gordon's Story: The Power of Intervention
Vanessa Gordon is the CEO and Publisher of East End Taste. She is also the Founder of the Hamptons Interactive Brunch event series. Alcoholism has been part of Vanessa’s life since she was child. Her father owned a renowned nightclub in the Hamptons and she was surrounded by alcoholics and battled that cumbersome relationship. Vanessa had a very skewed reality and never truly understood the significant issues around her until 2018, when the drinking escalated to such an extreme she knew she had to take action.
The most recent catalyst for Vanessa was in early June of 2022 when she finally reached out to a well-known addiction center in Manhattan regarding her qualifier. Side Note: a Qualifier is the term used in Alanon to keep anonymity about the person in your life who is an addict. (ironically, at the time of this call, Vanessa was suffering a hangover while in London celebrating the Queen's jubilee!).
Her life has never been the same since that call.
