About Victoria

Hello, I’m Victoria

I help adult daughters 35+ who feel guilty, responsible or anxious around difficult parents find their inner power and worth – and make and stand by more conscious choices about their time, boundaries and care, without becoming cold or stopping caring.

My story

From my own journey to guiding yours

I’m Victoria Herocten, a holistic guide for women facing difficult people – usually family – and who take too much on their shoulders.

I made the bold decision to move to Ireland, where I’ve lived for 20 years, to grow and broaden my horizons, and I embarked on a profound journey of self-discovery and holistic living. Now I am sharing my experience and wisdom with you.

I specialise in personal empowerment, holistic well-being, and breaking free from toxic relationships.

“I made the bold decision to move to Ireland… and embarked on a profound journey of self-discovery.”
