Victoria & Friends

Victoria sits down for a moving conversation with former U.S. Ambassador to The Bahamas, Nicole Avant.  Nicole shares an inspiring American story from her book, THINK YOU’LL BE HAPPY: Moving through Grief with Grit, Grace, and Gratitude - the story of her family- and offers hope and inspiration for anyone facing some of life’s most difficult moments. Speaking from personal experience, she offers a historical perspective on how to transform pain and tragedy into purpose and love.

Before this unfortunate event took place, Nicole focused her time on business, filmmaking, philanthropy and diplomacy. As the daughter of legendary music mogul Clarence Avant and indomitable civic activist Jacqueline Avant, she grew up in a world of glamor and privilege in Beverly Hills, learning from brilliant thinkers, artists, writers, musicians, and politicians.

Victoria sits down with author, Bible teacher, and television host Shelia Walsh.  Sheila’s books have sold almost six million copies and include multiple bestsellers: It’s Okay Not To Be Okay, Praying Women, and Holding On When You Want To Let Go.

Victoria has an enlightening conversation with well-respected family counselor, and author of the bestseller, The 5 Love Languages, Dr. Gary Chapman.

Dr. Chapman has written more than 50 books.  He hosts a nationally syndicated radio program, A Love Language Minute, and a Saturday morning program, Building Relationships with Dr. Gary Chapman, that air on more than 400 stations. 

The 5 Love Languages, one of Chapman’s most popular titles, topped various bestseller charts for years. It has been published in more than 50 languages, sold more than 20 million copies and is a perennial on the New York Times best-seller list. Dr. Chapman has been directly involved in real-life family counseling for more than 40 years. Dr. Chapman recently retired after 50 years of serving as senior associate pastor at Calvary Baptist Church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Victoria’s guest today is an author, entrepreneur, fashion designer, philanthropist, and former super model Kathy Ireland! You'll be inspired and likely surprised to hear all that Kathy, her family, and her brands are doing to make the world a better place.

Victoria sits down with her friend, entrepreneur Jamie Kern Lima, for an inspiring conversation about her new book, WORTHY.  Jamie shares how simple steps can lead to life-changing results. 

Jamie is a New York Times bestselling author, a leading voice in personal development and transformation, a guest teacher of “The Life You Want” class live with Oprah, and Founder of IT Cosmetics, a company she started in her living room and grew to the largest luxury makeup brand in the country. She sold the company to L’Oréal in a billion-dollar deal and became the first female CEO of a brand in its 100+ year history.  She’s been a Denny’s waitress, a struggling entrepreneur, lived a lifelong journey of rejections, and has battled her way through years of self-doubt, body-doubt, and God-doubt. She was placed into adoption at birth and has been on a journey of learning to believe she’s here with purpose, on purpose, and for a purpose and is worthy, lovable, and enough.
