Hi everyone! My name is Victoria, and I’m the creator of the Mindful Bamboo blog about personal growth, healing, and finding your happiness and abundance regardless of the circumstances.
Who am I? What is my journey that I’d love to share with you?
Some facts about me.
- I’m originally from Ukraine. I relocated for work to the UK in 2014 and later on to States (in 2017). I live in New York metropolitan area.
- I’m a teacher of foreign languages by profession (and teacher in spirit lol), but have built a career in software engineering, working as a project manager, business analyst, operations manager, etc.
- My big passion for the last 20 years has been self-discovery and actualization, primarily through philosophy, psychology, esoterics and other social studies. I’ve rebuilt myself and my worldview completely during my uni years, and now am rediscovering new depths and adding extra colors to my painting of life.
- I’m ecstatic about travelling the world. I have been to 30+ countries, and hope to see many more places and meet more local people when the quarantine times are over Travel widens your conciousness big time! (don’t think all-inclusive deals, more about mingling with the local culture and rhythm).
- I was born with numerous chronic health issues that in its turn caused injuries, hospital treatments and major pain as I was growing up. For some time I felt like I was in a bubble, my mom trying to eliminate any “dangers” to my health from the outside world. I became scared of it, really. But this realization allowed me to push my physical boundaries to do active fitness routines and take up ballroom dancing (now with the dance competitions in mind).
- We all know that traumatic experiences in our life either entrap us into our own mind prison or push us to new horizons and opportunities for growth. I’ve had these in abundance, and can share the transformation process/approach to make the most of it and enjoy the ride 🙂 Healing yourself without takins tons of medicine and spending a fortune on doctors is a huge topic for me, you’ll see for youself.
- I believe in planetary impact and astrology on our behavior and the choices we make, so you can always ask me what’s going on with the planets, what’s the state of the Moon, etc. and what it brings.
- I speak several languages, so you can contact me in Ukrainian/Russian, French, or Spanish, if you wish.
- Being a manager I’m used to discipline, responsibility and planning in my life, but learning to let go of these to trust more the Universe and its natural way of unfolding events. The decision to start this blog was a momentary aha moment, and I went with it without many questions asked. I hope to inspire you to find your aha moments through my stories.
Ask me questions about my story in the comments. I’ll be more than happy to reply there or update the main article.
