Host-Vida B   Vida Bailey

Hi there, thanks for coming by. I started this podcast to try and build a community of people seeking to grow and looking to connect. I'm crazy about growth, even though, oftentimes it can be difficult. I also love connecting with people, so don't be afraid to say hi if you see me around social media. I hope this community will bring some encouragement to you. I've been studying ways to grow for nearly 20 years and it has been a joy and difficulty.  I grew up in Ohio, and remain there today. I live with my partner and best friend, Manon, with our two cats, Tristan & Calvin. Someday we'll get a pup as well!

Q & A

What do you enjoy in your free time?

I really love to spend time with my partner, Manon. We often go for walks, enjoy meals together (I'm a major foodie, and she's an amazing cook), and sometimes just binge watch a good show! Currently watching House of the Dragon. Outside of our little cove, I love spending time with my amazing group of friends and my beautiful families (I have 2, The Bailey/McCluskey fam & the Kennedy fam, I'm so blessed), dining out, being cozy in, or running around downtown enjoying the city life. I love to travel, usually domestically since I'm still working through my fear of flying. My last trip was to the Pacific Northwest, it was amazing and beautiful! You can also find me scrolling social media for longer than I should. I love Summer and Fall, but in Winter I like to hibernate because I'm not a fan of the cold.
