Keynotes + workshops on grief, growth, and emotional wellbeing

Let's Change the Conversation

Whether your audience is navigating loss, major life change, or quiet overwhelm,

I bring compassionate, practical education that meets people where they are.

Available for keynotes, workshops, podcasts, schools, retreats, and corporate wellness programs.

It’s not enough to say we want change

we have to become it.

In carving my way through to the acceptance and peace I once only dreamed of, I’ve learned, and I share with you the truest truths: Every grieving heart leashed by emotional burdens, pain, and suffering wants to feel better. Every hurting heart longs to live & love unleashed.

Speaking about grief is healing for me. And it is a step toward fulfilling my dream that we, as a society, may one day talk about grief like we talk about the weather. However, grief isn’t the only topic I can speak about.

Topics I Enjoy Speaking About:

Living Your Strengths & Values (I’m a Cert. YouMap® Coach, and to learn more, click HERE) – Discuss the types of strengths (people-facing vs. inward-facing). Discuss the importance of values, how we dishonor our own values, and the role of boundaries in living out our values. And grief that comes with not aligning our lives with these two things can cause us grief.

The Hidden Power of Grief – What grief is, the six myths, STERBs (short-term energy relieving behaviors), and how awareness and introspection of its role in our lives can fuel and catapult for lasting change and continued growth. Learn about my program, Do Grief Differently, HERE.

Learning & Understanding Your Energy Type – Address the four energy types. Learn what drains and nurtures each energy type and provide practical tips. I bring what I’ve learned about my energy as an empath, Reiki Master, and Certified Biofield Tuning Practitioner. Learn more about the energy work I do HERE.

End-of-Life – Until a few years ago, I didn’t understand what it meant to have a “good death.” I didn’t even know it was possible to create an end-of-life passage on your own terms. I share my knowledge as a trained End-of-Life Doula and my experience with losing my father to a terminal illness as a child. Having also worked as a home health and long-term care facility certified nursing assistant, I’ve seen my share of individuals make their great exit from the physical plane. Death, although final and can be traumatic, learning what’s possible at the end of life is empowering. Furthermore, it can aid in the healing of loved ones left behind.

Victoria is an Advanced Certified Grief Recovery Specialist®, YouMap® Certified Coach, Certified Biofield Tuning Practitioner, Podcaster, and trained End-of-Life Doula.

Additionally, Victoria is a thought leader, author, and speaker on grief.

I help audiences recognize the hidden grief that’s quietly sabotaging their lives—and show them how to break free.

As an Advanced Certified Grief Recovery Specialist, Certified Energy Healing Practitioner, self-published author, veteran, and host of the international podcast Grieving Voices, I have supported people across 150 countries.

My most powerful credential? My own story—from childhood trauma and decades of unaddressed grief to a transformative breakthrough.

I speak with unflinching honesty: grief isn’t just about death. It’s the depression you can’t shake, the anger you can’t control, the repeated behaviors you can’t stop. It’s costing organizations $100 billion annually and costing individuals their relationships, health, and peace of mind.

Through powerful storytelling, experiential exercises, and evidence-based tools, I reveal the Six Myths of Grief and show audiences how to move from victim to hero of their own story. My approach is raw, relatable, and refreshingly hopeful. I don’t sugarcoat the pain, but I do show the way through it.

Audiences leave with newfound awareness, permission to grieve authentically, and actionable strategies for doing grief differently.

special gifts

We all have something unique, significant, and important to share and give to the world. My gift is empathy; I share it through my writing, work with clients, speaking, and how I show up in the world. Empathy is a driving force in my life and is an aspect of everything I do.It’s also a great joy of mine to assist others in uncovering their unique gifts, too.

learning

Knowledge is not power. Rather, applied knowledge is power. Learning new things is great, but if we don’t apply it to our lives or integrate it, what good is it? Applying knowledge, new tools, etc., is the work of someone who continues to grow and evolve.



connection

We are all connected; a piece of someone else’s puzzle that creates ripples beyond our comprehension. Through writing and speaking, I help others see themselves more clearly. We are all here to teach one another, and there’s always more to learn from those around us. There isn’t one person who has it all figured out. Connection raises all spirits.
