Victoria Lenormand has a personal story that fits the heart of our show. She spent nearly 30 years as a police detective and public servant—work that left her carrying years of unprocessed trauma. Things really hit a breaking point when the very systems she’d worked to uphold began failing her own family, especially as she tried to support her neurodivergent child.

That was the moment everything shifted. She walked away from the career that had shaped her identity and started a painful but powerful journey of healing, unlearning, and rebuilding. What followed was deep inner work, nervous system repair, and a total realignment of her life’s mission. Today, she helps families like hers navigate education, health, and parenting outside the traditional mold—because she’s lived the fallout when those systems don’t work.

Her story is raw, emotional, and ultimately hopeful. A story about burnout, identity loss, and what it takes to rise again with a new sense of purpose.
