Better Call Daddy

Heather Vaughn experienced severe chronic bullying since childhood until she graduated high school.  And she’s not alone!  Today we are breaking the silence and embracing failures!  Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space For Controversy.

After moving to Chicago in 2006, she set her sights on getting a new start in a new city.  She soon realized that a pattern was emerging, stemming from the days she was bullied. She was allowing life to happen to her instead of being an active participant. Heather decided to turn inward, a soul-searching journey filled with unknowns. In taking that journey, she became resilient, attuned to the bigger picture, resulting in healing from her traumatic past.

Today, Heather helps technology pioneers in the crypto and blockchain space amplify their value proposition to speed adoption.  She is also an accomplished writer and speaker.  Her topics include project and program management and personal and professional development.  

Heather has a BA from The Ohio State University and a Ph.D. in Life from the school of Hard Knocks.

KIND: 4-Steps to Heal the Bullied Heart and Become Your Own Best Friend – along with the corresponding workbook by the same name -- are Heather’s first full-length publications.

Eric Joshua Harazi should be dead.  11 years of relapsing, sexual assault traumas, suicide attempts, nervous breakdowns, HIV, Hepatitis, and now believes there’s something greater!  

In 2019, Eric conceptualized the nonprofit to fill a void in the world of recovery and is for the betterment of survivors nationwide. Eric is a survivor of sexual assault, as well as a survivor of substance abuse. It was through his own struggle with recovery and rehabilitation that he identified the missing link in the treatment center chain, the advocacy of the person in treatment. Eric started Coherently Aware Now for people like him to find their essence and ultimately their worth—to be advocated for, and to know that they are cared for. CAN is the only nonprofit of its type in the United States.
