Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Victoria Haffer. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Victoria , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. If you had a defining moment that you feel really changed the trajectory of your career, we’d love to hear the story and details.
About 8 years ago I was Director of a Yoga and Retreat center. All was great in my world. The grasshopper showed up literally representing Take the Leap. I quit my job and started to explore working more with animals and people in the healing and transformation world.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
It has been quite the journey. Over 25 years of deep diving and exploring all aspects of me. Why I did or didn’t do what I did. Exploring the motives of my ego while healing and integrating my inner child. I eventually becoming more present in life instead of reacting to everything.
My healing brought me to a place of being able to see the entire amazing universe through a completely different lens. No longer playing the victim or having to be a loner because I didn’t trust anyone enough to let them in.
My healing journey has led me to places I could have only imagined and every day I say – “How does it get better than this?”
As a Spiritual Coach and Intuitive Healer for people and animals, I have facilitated massive transformation for thousands of empathic women, healers and animals around the world and have dedicated my life to empowering people to find, develop, and own their personal power, emotional freedom and actualize their hearts desires while cultivating deep healing with ease and joy!
I can empower you to connect to your true self and show you how to take powerful action on your journey to create a life you absofreakinlutely adore.
“I am here to lovingly nudge you to fearlessly embrace your wisdom and transform your life.”
I will have your back every step of the way!
XO, Victoria

Do you think you’d choose a different profession or specialty if you were starting now?
Absofreakinlutely. I know this is my life’s purpose and why I was born and walk on the Earth. To be a light and beacon for those who chronically suffer and struggle with anxiety, depression, escapism and self sabotage yet know there is a better way. My divine purpose is to empower others to heal themselves as well as teach humans how to heal with and through animals.
Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?
I was looking for love in all the wrong places. Growing up in an extremely dysfunctional environment. Parents got divorced when I was six, Dad was an alcoholic and Mom was emotionally unavailable, so I had to watch out for me at a very young age. I was constantly in fight or flight and it eventually took a toll on my mental and physical health. I was constantly looking outside of myself for love, validation and acceptance. I went from relationship to relationship thinking that a man was the solution to all my problems when I finally realized everything was inside of me and that I needed to slowly unpack all the old stories, behaviors and patterns I had learned and began a new way of showing up in the world. Eventually leading to truly loving, forgiving and honoring myself in all aspects of my life. Today I teach others how to do the same.
