In our conversation, Victoria shares insight into her community involvement along with her recent experience as a TEDx speaker. We delve into the importance of authenticity, breaking free from societal boxes, and the transformative power of compassion. Victoria encourages us to navigate our lives with courage. We also discuss the role of creativity in bringing beauty and connection to the world, and the bravery it takes to show up proudly with our identities and as our imperfect selves.
