Victoria reflects on grief, artistic evolution, and the courage it takes to create work that feels emotionally honest. Following the unexpected loss of her aunt, she shares how grief has shifted her perspective on time, creativity, emotional capacity, and the importance of making work that feels true rather than simply safe. The episode explores fear, vulnerability, creative growth, boundaries, and what it means to trust yourself as your work begins to change and evolve.
