spectacular woman
I am Victoria Griffith and I wanted to share my excitement about this forum for
women and to also let you know a little bit about myself so that you realize
that I understand where you are coming from. I am one of you. As a domestic
violence survivor, I went through the mental and physical challenges that each
of us go through and my struggle took me to the dark places. As a teenager, I
felt that sense of disconnect and doubt but my journey led me to the other side
where I was able to overcome and heal. My goal is to let you know that there is
hope and through patience and focus, you can believe in yourself, let go of
self-doubt and take charge of your life again. Working together, I will take
your hand and walk you through the process of releasing the fears and
insecurities and begin the discovery of awakening your confidence and passion
again. I believe that you deserve to be empowered and I can show you the path
that can take you there. I will not let you down in your faith and trust in me.
I am a mother, transformational life skills strategist, author, consultant,
inspirational speaker, survivor of domestic violence, school governor and
founder and CEO of Spectacular Woman. My personal road has led me to that sense
of well-being and I have found my purpose. Working with women within these
realms, I have seen wonderful things happen. Many have escaped the barriers to
become the incredible individuals that they were meant to be, achieving their
dreams, moving forward with promotions, careers and love. I created Spectacular
Woman as a combination safe place, with carefully crafted inspirational and
empowering networks and programs. Our shared experiences have given me the
chance to see that many have limited beliefs and lack self-worth and confidence.
My mission is to unlock as well as unblock these limitations so that you become
energized in your life and take the action steps that will give you the ability
to fulfill your complete potential. As a result of the many relationships and
successes, I established the Spectacular Woman Club. This is a shared place
where everyone feels safe, secure, and supported as they make their personal
journeys. Our club amplifies, transforms and equips each woman so that they feel
empowered to make the changes they want in their lives to achieve their ultimate
goals for every life aspect. I have devoted many years working as a lecturer of
Social Policy in the secondary school and further education system areas. Having
spent thirteen years in the Criminal Justice System, including the Youth
Offending Team, I have a unique perspective as well as compassion. I was
privileged to work with the Women’s Victim Support Unit, working closely with
women who were victims of domestic violence. In my local community, I organized
conferences on domestic violence and also facilitated parenting support for
parents with challenging teenagers. This background allowed me to develop and
deliver the Live Wise TeenDV SRE Preventative Program for Teenagers on the topic
of healthy relationships in secondary schools and within my local community.
