Vanessa Pardo-Suazo, author of Xander’s Linda Manita, is a former NYC Bilingual School Psychologist with a Master's in Education from Brooklyn College. 

She is passionate about the highly educated, street-smart stay-at-home mama who desires to manifest their dreams inside and outside the home. Pardo-Suazo helps women find the balance between self-development while still enjoying mindless activities. 

She is a professional book reviewer who loves reading various genres and helping authors understand how to elevate their stories in the writing process.

She coaches women to embrace being more than one thing, evolve, try new things, and stand in their feminine power. As she walks through her journey of learning who she was created to be, she wants to take other women like herself with her on that journey. 

She now resides in Arizona with her family, juggling her roles as a mother, wife, and writer. Follow Vanessa on social media at @mamasotamundo on Instagram.
