Creating a Charmed Life (out of the one you’ve got)

Learn to “play your free square” (just like in Bingo!), “practice the vacation principle,” and “go for your dreams” with Victoria’s distinctive plan for bringing goals into reality from the inside out. Cry when you hear the story of her being widowed in her thirties with a small child to care for, and triumph as you hear how she grew from that to taking her daughter around the world – twice. Know when you hear the story of her “they-said-it-was-impossible” move to New York City that your dreams are possible, too (and if you end up humming Broadway show tunes on your way out, we understand).

This is Victoria’s classic keynote — a favorite of associations, women’s groups, religious organizations, and colleges.

The Making of a Main Street Vegan

This is Victoria’s one-woman show on how a steak-loving girl from Kansas City wound up as Main Street Vegan – an enticing performance that leads everyone who sees it to appreciate the changes they’ve made in their own lives. In it she impishly impersonates her 6-year-old self when she learned about the “4 Food Groups,” and the 12-year-old Victoria poring over her father’s medical texts in a search to end her struggle with obesity; and she tells with stunning poignancy the story of a single cow with whom she bonded on the day she spent in a slaughterhouse. With a backdrop of stunning visuals, this 50-minute program is, for the right venue, a unique and memorable theatrical experience.

The Feel-Great, Look-Amazing, Age-Later Lifestyle

 Vitality is your birthright and Holistic Health Counselor Victoria Moran has spent her life to date figuring how you can get it in spades, regardless of your age, history, or bank balance. Far too many Americans are at the mercy of myths, such as nobody loses weight for keeps; or once you’re past fifty (or forty even), there’s not a whole lot you can do to change things; or my parents got heart disease (or diabetes or arthritis or Alzheimer’s) and that’s probably what will happen to me. It doesn’t have to be that way! You can change the way you think, move, and eat in ways that just might hedge your bets against a great many of the ills the flesh is heir to – and feel incredible doing it. In this presentation, Victoria shares simple lifestyle practices that will give you energy, turn back the clock, and convince you that your glory days aren’t something from a long time ago, but coming in your near future.
