In a world where our inner truth feels silenced or irrelevant, how do we learn to listen to ourselves again? How do we learn to trust ourselves again?

In this episode, Dr. Victoria shares a personal story of reconnecting with her inner voice during a time of profound depression. As she shares this story, we learn practical steps to help you do the same and find your inner voice again. We’ll discuss what intuition really is (and isn’t), how to distinguish it from your thoughts, and why stillness and deep listening to your innermost voice are essential to living with clarity and authenticity.

If you’ve ever felt lost, disconnected, or unsure of what’s true for you, this episode is a guide to help you find your way back to yourself :)

In this episode, we explore how the constant pressure to conform and the relentless noise around us can drown out our deepest truths. We’ll journey into the metaphorical “secret garden” of our inner lives, a sacred space of beauty and nourishment that may feel lost but is always waiting for us to rediscover it.

Dr. Victoria shares an essential truth: that your innermost voice is always present within you, even when the world feels overwhelming. Through seven key reasons, we learn why honoring your inner voice isn’t just healing, it’s one of the most important things you can do.

So many of us wake up in lives we didn’t consciously choose—performing roles, chasing success, and wondering why we still feel empty. In our modern lives, we forget we even have a spirit. In this foundational 101 episode, Dr. Victoria defines spirituality and explores how it helps you break free from the illusions you've been conditioned to believe—those that tell you your worth lies in achievement and approval—to reconnect with the deeper truth of who you are.

This episode is an invitation to realize that spirituality is deeply human. It’s about the existential questions humans have been asking for thousands of years—how to make sense of life, how to keep going when you feel like you can’t, and how to live with meaning in a world that so often feels lonely or disconnected. Most of all, spirituality is about waking up to the beauty that’s already inside you. Thank you for listening! :)

What if happiness isn’t something to chase—but something to practice?

In this episode, Dr. Victoria and Producer Carlisle to try something deceptively simple: smiling on purpose, even when it’s the last thing you feel like doing.

Research shows that even forcing a smile when you don’t feel happy can change your brain. Specifically, people who smiled intentionally—despite low moods—experienced improved emotional states, reduced stress, and greater resilience.

So, we put this research to the test. We talk about what worked, what didn’t, and why this small action opened up space for more happiness and peace. Try it with us – and see how your week positively shifts.

Thank you for joining us! :)

Live your life backwards. Yes, you read that right.

In today’s episode, Dr. Victoria invites you to flip the script on time and purpose. What if you started at the end—looking back from your future self—and made choices today based on what you’ll one day wish you had done or experienced?

Together, we explore how to map your life’s journey in reverse: identifying the moments and accomplishments that truly matter, then aligning your daily actions with that vision. Reflect on what you want your life to stand for, and let your inner knowing serve as a compass to guide you toward a life of genuine meaning, purpose, and alignment.

Thank you for joining us. We’re grateful you’re here. :)

Have you ever felt like you failed someone, messed up significantly, or just couldn’t face who you were?

This episode is a pep talk for anyone navigating times of self-doubt, shame, or inner criticism. We explore how the parts of you that feel heavy or broken are not proof of your failure, but rather, proof of the light within you.

This episode is here to remind you that you feel this way because you care deeply. You're not inherently broken, just human, with vulnerabilities that make you both brave and beautifully flawed.

Together, we’ll reframe moments of self-loathing as invitations to deeper compassion. Healing isn’t something you have to do alone. It’s a path we walk together, paved with grace, courage, and the freedom to begin again, no matter how many mistakes you make.

Thank you for listening :) We're grateful you’re here.

What can we learn from a tree? In this episode, Dr. Victoria explores three profound truths drawn from the natural world, from honoring the seasons of your life to learning how to flow with change instead of resisting it, to invite you into deeper harmony with yourself.

Just as a seed holds within it everything it needs to grow into its fullest expression, you, too, carry an innate inner calling—guiding you gently toward your most authentic Self. When you embrace this inner wisdom, you awaken the ability to naturally unfold into your highest potential.

Thank you for listening. We're grateful for you!

It turns out that life often moves in self-fulfilling cycles. Take, for instance, the anxiety of walking into a party—nervous energy can make you hold back, stay quiet, and retreat inward. And then, when the night feels disconnected or disappointing, it seems to confirm your fear. In reality, it was the mindset you carried in that shaped much of what unfolded.

In this episode, Dr. Victoria explores how the energy, thoughts, and emotions we bring into our experiences subtly but powerfully shape our reality. She shares how we can shift from fear-based patterns into more life-affirming, love-centered ones.

Love, after all, is the highest energy we can embody. And when we approach daily life—conversations, decisions, even our inner dialogue—from that place, we begin to move ourselves into gentler, more nourishing cycles.

In cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), this process is known as challenging distorted thoughts. In dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), we trace emotional patterns through what’s called a chain analysis. Dr. Victoria weaves these tools together with spiritual insight, helping you understand the deeper, often unseen energies influencing your life’s rhythms—and how you can shift them.

Thank you for listening, you are deeply appreciated!
