Help others make sense of the energy
That sensitivity you’ve got?
Use it for service.
That intuition that’s been honed?
Use it for impact.
Desire to participate in the paradigm shift?
Here’s your ticket for how to.
Welcome to the Energy Guide Certification program, where you’ll learn how to effectively energetically read and guide others through the underlying energy dynamics at play in their lives and the larger collective. This a highly needed perspective in these times.
We are all becoming more aware of, affected by, and attuned to energy.
Energy shows up in every aspect of our lives - from what we eat to who we interact with to how we perceive what’s unfolding in the world to healing breakthroughs. Something within us waking up, giving pause, and altering our perception of reality.
And we need guides…
Energy Guides who know how this landscape works and have tools to best work with it.
The Energy Guide Certification program sets you up to do just that.
Get energy guide skills, purpose alignment clarity, messenger mastery tools, and business build frameworks to set you up as a new paradigm business owner and leader with integrity during this time of great shifts. We start in October 2026.

Kate Megee, a graduate of the 2023 and 2024 program, is a certified Energy Guide and Transformational Coach. She shares deep wisdom in all she puts out into the world.
Beyond the new awareness, skills, and connections, Kate met her now podcast co-host Amanda in the Energy Guide Certification. They created Awakening Conversations, an idea that popped in while attending the course. Who might you meet? What might you start?
“I've had the pleasure of participating in Vanessa's Energy Guide Certification two times now, and each time has deepened my abilities to read and understand how energy dynamics affect us individually, within relationships, and on a collective level.
While my current work is not explicitly as an "energy guide," my understanding of energy is now an integral part of how I interact with and understand clients, in relationships, and myself. I liken what it feels like to operate in this way to what I imagine a baby who was deaf or hard of hearing feels like when they get a device that allows them to hear - it's like an innate ability gets activated that we don't know is missing until we experience life with it.
Once we experience life with this ability turned on, it's hard to imagine that we previously operated without it. The Energy Guide Certification is a deep and rich program, and is so needed for the times that we're in. I highly recommend it!” - Amanda Richardson-Meyer, 2023 & 2024 graduate
“Not only has the program helped me personally navigate energy, I have found that I have a new set of language and awareness within my business in how I relate and connect with my clients. When a client is stuck or overwhelmed, I can tune into what’s happening at an energetic level and suggest tools to help them clear or shift the energy to bring about a more aligned state. This is powerful work.” - Katie Hill, 2023 & 2024 graduate
“This amazing course is changing the way I look at myself, my life, my work and my relationships. Seeing it all through the lens of Energy has opened up new ways of tackling issues that before have seemed insurmountable. And, I get to do it all with the support of Vanessa and a wonderful group of likeminded souls.” - Helen Fletcher, 2024 graduate
A graduate of the 2023 program, Dr. Leslie Hamlett is a certified Energy Guide, feminine embodiment coach, naturopath, and midwife. She helps women who feel stressed and disconnected from their bodies reclaim their health and vitality so they can feel radiantly alive and create a life of depth, purpose and pleasure.
My life personally and professionally has been shifting over the past year for a variety of reasons. Some of the reasons I was very aware of their origin, but there were several that I could not quite put my finger on. The Energy Guide program helped me better understand my own energetic design and evolution.
It also showed me the wider energetic contexts at play in the world currently. It has been so powerful for me to make decisions from a place of better knowing myself and my relationship with others and the environment around me. I now see how I can work with energy in an advisory and business setting. People dynamics, business processes, and software are all fundamentally energetic structures too.
The other participants in the group are also just wonderful people and I mean that in a literal sense. They are full of wonder and curiosity and show up as their real selves. And I am in awe of their gifts and really appreciative to be in community with them. - Jennifer Van Dijk, 2024 graduate

Vanessa Smith, creator & teacher, Energy Guide Certification
The Energy Guide Certification program was born out of being acutely aware of the need for energy guides during this transformational time we are in. There is so much change taking place individually and collectively right now. The old system is breaking down. The new system is breaking through. We, as a species, are discovering more of who we are.
Humanity is experiencing a rise in sensitivity, intuitive discernment, emotional acuity, and energy awareness.
Knowing how to navigate the landscape energetically helps make sense of it all.
My intention behind creating this certification was to help position Energy Guides - who are aware of these larger shifts and know how to work with them in a practical, embodied, and energy focused way - to be available for the many who are now becoming aware of all that’s shifting within and around them.
I also created this certification program with an interest in shifting the economy toward new paradigm businesses. Certified Energy Guides can use the vehicle of their business to role model what financial livelihood can look like when your purpose meets the paradigm shift.

Yes, and no…
Yes, in that all of the content modules are there for you to explore at your own pace. You’ll also get a guidebook to help integrate what you’re learning.
No, in that there is a dedicated space to connect with others currently going through the certification program, or who have already completed it. This gives a “Live” feel to the training. You also receive 1:1 mentorship sessions with me, Vanessa, to help you embody the teachings.

No matter what you already know about energy, if you are new to me and new to this program, you will learn something here.
Concepts will be delivered differently than you may have previously heard. No matter what your level of energy expertise, you’ll still gain from joining, especially as energy is dynamic and ever-changing.
Having been in this field for 25 years, and needing to make sense of energy my entire life, I learn something new every day about energy!
Ultimately, you choose whether it would be worth it to you or not.
You know what your goals, vision, and intentions are. Do those match with what is being offered here? Does your intuition say yes? Then, go for it.

Determining the level of woo is subjective. We all have lines that can be crossed when it comes to what is too “out there” for us to consider as truth. I am not interested in having you believe what I believe.
What I am interested in and committed to, is teaching you the tools and context about energy as it relates to our lives in real time and the collective shifts currently going on.
The info I source about energy is my own energy read. I don’t follow any particular teacher or methodology, though I appreciate what others have to offer and find it often enriches or expands on what I sense to be true.
You are welcome to disagree with my perspective or teachings on energy. But use that as a tool for connection, and furthering the conversation, rather than being in judgement or opposition. Make the most of the experience, take what works, and let go of the rest. That’s the vein in which I suggest you guide others too.
