Motherhood

**I want to ask you something personal.** **When did you last have a conversation — a real one — where you didn’t have to perform being okay?** **Not with your colleagues. Not with your family who worry about you. Not on a first date where you’re still deciding how much to reveal.** **Just an honest conversation. About where you actually are. What you actually want. What’s quietly weighing on you that you haven’t found the right moment — or the right person — to say out loud yet.** **I ask because I think a lot of us are carrying more than we let on.** **The career that pays the bills but costs you something you can’t quite name. The love life that hasn’t gone the way you hoped, no matter how hard you’ve tried. The Sunday evening feeling that the week ahead is just more of the same — and the life you actually wanted is somehow still waiting somewhere in the future.** **You’re not broken. You’re not behind. You’re just human. And you deserve a space to actually say that.** **That’s what this evening is.** **I’m Victoria. Many of you know me from our dinners, breakfasts, and walks over the years.** **What you may not know is everything I’ve walked through and the rollercoaster rides I’ve been on to get here.** **On the professional front, I’ve spent years in HR and coaching holding space for people through retrenchments, burnout, and career crossroads. I’ve coached thousands of professionals through some of the most uncertain chapters of their lives.** **I run my own business. I’ve organised dating events for singles courageous enough to open their hearts again. I’ve sat across from so many people who came to me feeling lost — and left with something shifting inside them.** **And through all of it, I’m on my own journey. Still am.** **I’ve made a lot of pivots in my life and I’ll share with you more tonight — not because I have it all figured out, but because I think something in my story might speak to something in yours.** **Many of you have asked me over the years why I run these gatherings the way I do. No sponsors. No agenda. No pitch. I just love bringing people together. I’m happy to help. I’m simply happy to be there for you. That’s always been enough for me.** **You know those walks we do — where I’m playing tour guide, making us walk, pointing things out? I go home after those sessions genuinely happy. Full. That feeling of having connected people, having created something real out of just a few hours together — I simply enjoy it.** **This evening is no different. Just more intentional. More intimate.** **And maybe — for some of you — more timely.** **We’ll talk about the things we usually don’t.** **The rat race and whether you’re running toward something or just running. What it would mean to one day own your time completely. Love and the courage it takes to keep your heart open after disappointment. Starting over — in career, in relationships, in the quiet belief that the best chapters are still ahead.** **No agenda. No slides. No performance.** **Just a handful of us in a room being brave enough to be real with each other and ourselves.** **The evening will be held in a quiet, private meeting room — a proper space for conversations like this. No background noise, no interruptions, no one rushing you along. Just the kind of unhurried environment that a reflection this important actually deserves.** **A quick note on RSVPs — like many of you know, our Meetup events tend to get a lot of sign-ups and not everyone makes it on the night. Because this room has limited seats and I want every chair filled with someone who genuinely wants to be here, I’m doing this one a little differently.** **If you haven’t got my number, please message me directly to receive my contact number and confirm your attendance. Your spot is only reserved once you’ve confirmed with me personally and not just on meetup. It wouldn’t feel right to hold a seat for someone who isn’t coming when there may be someone else who needs this evening far more.** **First come, first seated — and I genuinely hope that’s you. 🤍** **This is not a seminar. Not a networking event. Not a motivational talk.** **Just people connecting with people. People who are honest enough with themselves to know that life could be fuller — in career, in love, in freedom, in just feeling like themselves again.** **Maybe you need a real conversation. Maybe you need to hear that someone else feels it too. Maybe you just need one evening that reminds you the things you want are still possible.** **This evening might not change everything. But it might change something. A perspective. A decision you’ve been putting off. A conversation that needed to happen. A realisation that’s been waiting quietly for the right moment.** **You’ve been putting yourself last for long enough.** **Come. Show up for yourself — even just this once.** **That little bit more is waiting for you. 🤍** ****** ***Out of respect for the openness and safety of this space — and based on feedback from our community — I’d also ask that you share your occupation when you message me to confirm. This evening is a genuine, pressure-free conversation and to keep it that way, I’m unable to accommodate those working in sales, MLM, or similar fields. I hope you understand and appreciate that this boundary exists to protect the experience for everyone in the room. 🙏*** ******

Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: A wealthy corporate raider hires a Hollywood escort as his date for a week of high-society business events. But what starts as a business transaction blossoms into genuine love, challenging both of their lives and leading to an unexpected romance. The film is directed by Garry Marshall and stars Richard Gere, Julia Roberts, Héctor Elizondo, Ralph Bellamy (in his final performance), Laura San Giacomo and Jason Alexander. MINI TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-JghOdhAwc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-JghOdhAwc) SHORT BONUS CLIP #1 - DIRECTOR GARRY MARSHALL Recalls Famous Scenes from the Film: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpIMOzieGPs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpIMOzieGPs) SHORT BONUS CLIP #2 - RICHARD GERE on the Film’s Impact all these years later: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0T3O94dAA8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0T3O94dAA8) SHORT BONUS CLIP #3 - JULIA ROBERTS Remembers a Gift from Director Garry Marshall: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJ4AZSjbMsA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJ4AZSjbMsA) BUZZ & ACCLAIM: A huge box office hit at the time of its release, PRETTY WOMAN has since gone on to become a modern-day classic! The film catapulted Julia Roberts to superstardom and earned her a Golden Globe for Best Actress and her first Oscar nomination! Critics praise Julia Roberts’ star-making performance, the undeniable chemistry between her and Richard Gere, and its warm, funny feel-good story about kindness, self-worth and transformation! The film’s “intelligence and wit,” “first-class performances” and “sharp, funny script” have made Pretty Woman a classic and truly “something special!” THE OHIO THEATRE: The Ohio Theatre is located at 39 E. State Street, between 3rd and High Streets, across the street from the Ohio Statehouse. From classical music to modern dance, yearly family traditions to hot concerts, the world’s best artists come to the 2,791-seat, historic Ohio Theatre. The breathtaking details (including the 21-foot-high chandelier!) of its opulent, Spanish-Baroque architecture make any night at the Ohio Theater an event to remember!

Come to happy hour with me! We can get drinks and get to know each other.

Jimmy V's Grill & Pub in Grandview Heights. You are responsible for your own meal/drinks.

We'd love to have you join us. COTA bus #5 comes to W. 5th and Wyandotte Rd. And it's a minute walk to the restaurant.
