We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Victoria Nielsen a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Victoria thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Can you open up about a risk you’ve taken – what it was like taking that risk, why you took the risk and how it turned out?
The biggest risk I’ve ever taken was being willing to go on a journey of self-healing and discovery. It can feel scary to expose all the things you’ve kept buried inside, but once you begin to uncover the layers of yourself, you can finally come home to who you really are.
For years, I searched for love in everything and everyone but myself, and I started to feel unfulfilled and bitter in my corporate job. In 2018, I experienced a miscarriage and although I didn’t know it at the time, it was the beginning of my journey of self-discovery.
The more that we begin to heal the relationship we have with ourselves, the more every other relationship in our lives will begin to flourish. I started questioning all the things I’d always thought I wanted for my life, and I found freedom in exploring and rediscovering what I actually desired. Now, instead of doing something just because, I do it because it brings *me* joy.
The inward journey isn’t always easy, but the more that I listen to that innate inner knowing, the more peace I’ve found in my life. You find who you really are when you get out of your comfort zone, and I think everyone should take the risk of finding their real selves in this lifetime.
Victoria , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
A miscarriage in 2018 rocked my world and kickstarted my self-discovery journey. All the things I thought I wanted for my life didn’t feel good anymore — the important title, the big paycheck — and even though I didn’t really know it at the time, my spiritual and wellness journey really began.
Learning to tap into my intuition through the Akashic Records (an energetic tool of healing and empowerment) helped heal my grief, and it ultimately overflowed into so much joy and love in my life. Now, I demystify ancient practices like the Akashic Records and Kundalini Yoga to help you nurture your intuition and live a more embodied and empowered life.
I help women who’ve awakened to the calling for more discover who they are vs. what society has always told them to be. As women, our intuition is our innate superpower. Most women through cultural and familial conditioning, have stopped listening to and honoring that inner knowing as they navigate their lives.
Through ceremonial circles, coaching, and simplifying these ancient practices, I create a safe space for you to reconnect back to that most powerful and wise intuitive aspect of yourself. Because when you’re in touch with your intuition, you’re in touch with your truth – the most powerful and unique thing that makes you YOU, and something you need to manifest your best life.
There are so many spiritual coaches who tell you their exact method is “the way.” I’m here to say screw that, and help you forge your own path to your version of bliss. My approach to energy work allows you to make friends with your fear, and uncover the wild woman you’ve always been all along.
I love holding space for intimate groups to go deep. We’re not alone on this Earthly journey, and ceremonial circles allow us to see ourselves and our experiences reflected in one another.
My simple approach to empowerment allows you to slow down and get clear on what you really want next in life, helping you feel fully seen and supported, guiding you to a new awareness of yourself and the world around you.
My clients say I’m authentic, grounded, and real, and I believe your feelings and emotions are actually your north star through any situation. My personal mission is to help new and seasoned mamas everywhere find the love for themselves that they have for their babies.
How’d you build such a strong reputation within your market?
My authenticity and vulnerability, hands down. What you see is what you get from me, and there are no games or gimmicks. You will attract the clients and people meant for you because of your energy. And that energy is most powerful when you’re 100% yourself. People want to form real connections with others, and they can tell when you’re faking it. We all just want to feel seen and connected, and when someone else can feel that from you, there’s no greater testimonial for your work.
Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?
Being myself and sharing my story. I always joke that “my human is showing.” And that’s been the greatest attractor of clients. When others can feel your authenticity, and see a mirror of themselves in who you are or your story, it’s relatable. They see that you’ve experienced the same hardships that they have, and you’ve come out on top, so they can, too. It’s inspiring. People want to be in that kind of energy.
