Meet Victoria
Welcome to A Sanctuary of Remembrance
I’m Victoria Allen– wisdom coach, psychotherapist, spiritual guide and yogi —
and a woman who built a beautiful life while quietly abandoning herself.
From the outside, everything looked whole–career, family, and financial ease. But inside, I carried a quiet restlessness I couldn’t name. A whisper that kept asking, “Is this all there is?”
Then came the wake up calls.
Divorce cracked my heart.
Cancer cracked my body.
And in the breaking, the truth emerged. I had shaped a life through the common stressful patterns I’ve named the Overs — over-giving, over-functioning, over-accomodating, over-achieving and over-analyzing.
That was the beginning of my return. Not a reinvention–but a remembrance.
Now I live rooted in myself, my worth and a life that aligns with values that nurture me. A love that includes me.
I work with weary women every day who are at a turning point in their lives. Will they keep up the stress and soul-starving patterns that cause them to lose themselves–their truth, their voice, their energy and power? Or, will they bravely turn toward reclaiming what’s been lost through the Overs? These stressful and depleting patterns are born from survival and rob our soul life which truly nourishes us on all levels.
For over 35 years, I’ve walked beside women ready to reclaim the parts of themselves they’ve denied or buried. They are ready to remember the truth and love that lives within them. They are ready to live a life with freedom to be themselves.
I created Raise Your State as a sacred space for this remembering.
Imagine releasing the patterns that keep you stuck in self-sabotage or disconnection.
Imagine meeting your life with grounded clarity, steady self-love, and the freedom to choose your way forward.
This is the work I live for. And the heart of my book. Rooted in Worthiness: A Soul-Deep Guide to Reclaim Your Power and Remember Your Worth.
Through retreats, private sessions and sacred inquiry, I walk with women who are ready to reclaim the parts of themselves they’ve denied or buried.
Together, we shift:—
from fear to openness, courage and confidence.
from losing themselves to authentic self-expression,
from performing their worth to embodying it.
These aren’t just concepts.
They become a lived foundation—
rooted in self-acceptance, self-respect, and self-trust.
My work blends science, soul, and somatic wisdom.
It invites your nervous system to soften.
Your heart to open.
And your truth to rise.
We don’t fix what’s ‘wrong’ with you.
We unearth what’s already true and right.
We remember who you really are.
This is not a becoming.
It’s a homecoming.
My work blends science, soul, and somatic wisdom.

It’s something you remember.
Let’s remember together.
“Victoria, you have given me the tools to escape my suffering. There can be no greater gift! As you know, I have received teachings from many different venues, yet I was frustrated because I still couldn’t change. You have an uncanny perception that consistently challenges me to find truth and grow my authenticity. My life’s foundation has strength and stability from the simple and clear toolbox I have created from your work. You are a powerful blessing.”
“It was difficult for me to even admit how closed down I was. With so much deep meditation in my history I thought I should be more together, but that work hadn’t really shifted greatly in the areas that mattered most to me. I wanted to love. I was incredibly discouraged-disheartened. As I’ve worked the love-stalking practices with Victoria, my fear-based reality has been dismantling. I am for the first time in my life, actually happy–joyful to be alive each day. And still, months after my last trip to Teotihuacan, Mexico, with Victoria and Tos, the fear, at least as the tyrant of my life is gone. And with that, my heart is opening. Victoria is a brilliant facilitator, creating a safe space to bring out the tender places within me.”
“I could see changes in my friend. With a little skepticism, I decided to work with Victoria and keep an open mind. My goal was to open myself up to my emotions and to love. Through dreaming and personal sessions with Victoria, I quickly gained awareness of how my thoughts, actions and self-identity were controlled by my judgments and opinions about certain events in my life. Learning to recognize and let go of those judgments wasn’t easy. I was surprised to learn how decoding my dreams could heal wounds at a deep, emotional level. Victoria was an incredible guide through this process. She is insightful, compassionate and tough when I needed it, yet always with love, humor and absolutely no judgment. I still have a ways to go yet I am beginning to see how amazing it is to live my life with freedom, and the joy and peace that goes with it. I am very grateful to be going through this process and to have such a remarkable person to guide me through it.”
