From Surviving
to
Thriving

Just because you know how to struggle doesn’t mean you should have to. 

A friend said that to me once. I had no idea what she meant.


Then I learned the power of energy work and somatic healing,

regained my sense of safety, and shifted from surviving to thriving.

I became a certified life coach, somatic yoga teacher, and energy healer

to help women live healthy, joyful lives

without having to fight so damn hard for it.

 

No matter where you are in life or what you’ve been through,

it’s time to reconnect with - and celebrate - The Heroine Within. 

 

Are you ready?

Your body holds the answer.

The story behind The Heroine Within

My mother’s name was Heroina (Heroine in Spanish). As the eldest of 13, she spent her childhood caring for others and carrying responsibilities far beyond her years. She was only able to attend school through the 3rd grade, unable to pursue further education.

 

Taught to do what was expected of her, she was courageous and bold, eloping with my father who was rejected by her family for being dark skinned and poor.  She was resourceful and strong. On the day I was born, she put in her hours on the factory floor before taking the train to the hospital, all on her own. She was compassionate and supportive. Throughout my school years, she would stay awake when I was up studying, bringing me tea and making sure I never felt alone. 

There were some difficult years in our relationship but through it all she continued to demonstrate her unconditional love. Having very little to offer financially, she showed her love by cooking my favorite meals, walking in the cold to help me when I needed her, and going without so that I could have what little there was.  Three days before she passed away, she turned to me and asked, "Is there forgiveness?" Even after giving me all she had to give, she wanted me to know she wished she could have done more.

 

That was the love of my heroine.​ A love that taught me to believe in the power of my own voice. A love that created the safety I needed to discover who I am.

I created The Heroine Within in her honor because I believe all women deserve to experience unconditional love and safety. Because I believe when women feel safe there is a ripple effect that makes the world better for everyone in their lives. It is my greatest hope that through this experience, you will reconnect with The Heroine Within and remember you are powerful, resourceful, and more than enough.

I'm so glad you're here! 

 

Love & Light,

Vida
