Episode 15 - Victoria Roberts

After Jaymee's mother, artist Victoria Roberts, had survived a horribly abusive childhood by establishing a foundational relationship with God being Love, she arrived in London in 1971 at the age of 18 and was instantly swept into the inner circle of rock legends The Who and The Faces. The first time Who drummer Keith Moon met Victoria at The Roundhouse in London in 1971, he confessed his innermost feelings of guilt over the accidental death of his driver and bodyguard Neil Boland just months before, a rare showing of vulnerability from the late rock legend. Victoria taught Ronnie Wood from the Faces (now The Rolling Stones) how to ice skate around that time, and was with The Faces when they trashed Alice Cooper's after party at the legendary Rainbow Theatre while he was still performing on stage. A year later, after listening to Stephen Stills first solo record in 1972, she simply imagined herself hanging out with him... two months later, Victoria was searching for an unlocked window at Stephen Stills Boulder, CO home to climb through, hellbent on cleaning the house, which from the outside looked trashed and partied in heavily. What'd Stephen do when he arrived home a few days later when he found her as an intruder in his home? He gave her a job for the next year as his live-in assistant/housekeeper.  Victoria's life is an exemplarily demonstration of how thought can physically manifest, and  how one can radical heal themselves and others through self love and living a life of honesty. She shares her multi-layered process of healing herself from the unspeakable horrors of her youth, how an accidental psilocybin trip at 16 years old played an integral role, and how on multiple occasions in life she talked herself out of being raped by discussing her spiritual healing with each looming aggressors. Victoria's life is also a great example that you may find your artistic voice in late in the game, and how simple and beautifully sweet it it all can be.      VICTORIA's ART: www.victoria-roberts.com and on IG: @Victoria_roberts_art VICTORIA'S JEWLERY: www.indianlodgeroad.com and on IG: @indianlodgeroad LOVE IS THE AUTHOR: produced, edited, and hosted by Jaymee Carpenter.
