Victoria Monk

Rowing non-stop for two hours on, two hours off, across a grueling 3,000 miles of the Atlantic Ocean is not only a test of physical endurance, but also a testament to mental resilience. Victoria Monk understands this better than anyone, as she faced the daunting challenge head-on. Enduring over 40 days at sea, battling severe sleep deprivation, excruciating sores, blisters, and relentless seasickness, all while confronting towering 40ft waves in a 9.6-meter boat with three other women, Victoria developed an incredible mindset. Now, Victoria aims to share her experience and teach others how to unite and lead a team of ordinary people, who were previously strangers, to achieve extraordinary feats. She believes in overcoming adversity and building a resilient mindset. Victoria will enlighten you on how to navigate through the storm and emphasize the power of effective communication, even in tight spaces. Victoria's talks delve into the lessons she learned in leadership, tenacity, and sheer determination. Her ability to handle pressure, fear, success, and failure resonates with audiences from all walks of life. Her message empowers everyone, reminding them that if she can cross the Atlantic Ocean in a tiny rowing boat without any prior rowing experience, they too can find inspiration to conquer their own metaphorical Atlantic Ocean, be it in their work or personal lives.
