“I met Victoria ten years ago, over an incredible family style meal in Northern Italy. I was immediately captivated by her intellectual curiosity and effervescence,  and, when I finally returned to Vancouver a decade later, I knew that I had to attend one of her dinner parties. Through her masterful facilitation, warm and grounding presence, and collaborative leadership, we spent the evening developing ideas, facilitating connections, and engendering possibilities to help carry our ideas, aspirations, and visions to the next level.

Victoria derives her strength and influence not from steadfast individualism but from her capacity not only to see the best but also to bring out the best in everyone around her. The dinners, just like her, are convivial, unpretentious, energizing, and, for lack of a better word, inspiring. And these feelings of community, connection, and empowerment transcend our time together at the table.”

“The experience of Umami Journeys is brilliant; Victoria has the unique ability to facilitate an environment that produces personal interactions that run deeper than a title or label. As I have seen it play out, the events and classes have ultimately led to high value engagements and strong professional and personal relationships. I highly recommend Umami’s programs and facilitator events as a step into a higher quality of connecting for your business and your life.”

“I have been involved with two masterminds led by Victoria and have been absolutely impressed with the effect they had on my business and my personal life. Victoria’s approach brings mindfulness, spirit and intention to the mastermind concept, which in my opinion is the secret ingredient. I highly recommend her programs and admire her ability to connect people and facilitate incredible events.”

“I’ve had the privilege of attending two of Victoria’s dinners. I was so impressed with the first one that I had to do it again! Victoria brought some very special people together in an open atmosphere that really facilitated deep connections and self reflection. A level of vulnerability I wasn’t expecting. Ate some delicious food, made some great connections and left better than I arrived!”

“For as long as I’ve known Victoria, I’ve known her to be a facilitator. A facilitator in bringing people together, helping you understand what you want and ultimately connecting with yourself. Through her dinners (a project to build a community of like-minded individuals) I’ve been able to see strangers come together to learn from one another and speak to each other as if they had been friends for many years. I have personally grown through my connection to her and am very grateful to be able to call her a friend. If there was ever a person you’d want in your corner, it would definitely be her.”

“When I first met Victoria 20 years ago, she was already a joyful, energetic, optimistic, and positive young woman. By traveling the world, meeting people from all nationalities, and living in different cultures, she acquired an incredible open-mindedness, clear-sightedness, and compassion towards humankind.

In addition to all this, Victoria received a very precious gift: the skill of inspiring people! With her tremendous energy and generosity, she helps us actually make our dreams come true and achieve our goals, personal or professional. If today I can say that I am a photographer, it is definitely thanks to her support and good advice and for this, I will always be grateful for her!”  

“After being part of Bliss Mastermind for the last 2 years, I’ve been more accountable to my goals and dreams. Victoria is not only a great facilitator, but also has built an amazing structure that keeps the group on track. The flow of our sessions is always relaxed and I feel very inspired afterwards. I highly recommend signing up for one of Victoria’s Masterminds if you’re ready to take your business and life to the next level! “
