Victoria’s Personal Background:
From her humble beginnings as a child of a migrant farm family, Victoria has conquered poverty, race discrimination in business and personal struggles that involved eating
disorders including obesity, anorexia and bulimia to become the nation’s premier business, health and fitness “activist” and a teacher of Divine Prosperity. Victoria believes that abundance is our birthright and poverty is a state of mind. She is making it her life’s mission to help others reach a state of harmony in their Mind, Body and Spirit and that will open the door for them to achieve total prosperity.
Poverty Is a State of Mind
Victoria was born in the south and migrated to the agriculture fields of the west where she grew up in a large family and cut her teeth on the beginning of a spiritual and prophetic life. She knew there was something special going on in her life and that God was close to her and talking to her.
It was during her childhood that she her spiritual hunger led to the manifestation of a physical hunger that began a destructive cycle of bingeing, purging – gaining and losing. For more than a decade, Victoria struggled with lack of understanding, poverty thinking, poor self image, compulsive eating and bulimia. She had a total mentality of lack and poor thinking which almost led her to social dependence. But God had a plan and He healed her and helped her use her misfortune as her road to making a fortune.
Seeing her today, it is hard to imagine she once carried 170 plus pounds on her 5-foot-3-inch frame. Glowing with good health, divine prosperity and real emotional and physical energy today. Victoria is living proof that a long-term cycle of poverty thinking, poor health and negative behavior can be broken.
