Empowering 10,000 women to reclaim their voices and live Radically Free through somatic healing, nervous system regulation, and the transformative power of the FIRE Method
There is a specific kind of exhaustion that comes from performing a life rather than living one. For Victoria Ahmed, the founder of Radical Rhythms Coaching, this realization wasn’t a quiet whisper; it was a somatic revolution. After two decades as a successful business owner, Victoria reached a crossroads where the systems of perfection and endurance no longer served the woman she was becoming. Today, she stands as a trauma-informed somatic practitioner and a feminist coach, dedicated to a singular, audacious mission: inspiring 10,000 women to live radically free.
Victoria’s work is a blend of poetic intuition and nervous system science. She doesn’t just coach; she facilitates a rebirth. Through her signature FIRE Method—Fracture, Ignite, Rise, Embody—she guides women and organizations away from the quiet depletion of burnout and toward a state of emotional sovereignty. “You are not broken,” Victoria often reminds her clients. “You were never meant to fit into a system that silences you. You deserve a life that feels exhilarating.”
The Matriarchal Roots of Resistance
Victoria’s journey began in the vibrant, diverse streets of East London. Raised within a deeply matriarchal community, she learned early on that the strength of a woman is often the backbone of society. Her education at the Walthamstow School for Girls was pivotal, igniting a feminist fire that has never wavered. While other teenagers were focused solely on grades, Victoria was immersed in dialogues about social justice, human rights, and the symbiotic relationship between the arts and political life.
This intellectual curiosity led her to the University of Westminster, where she studied Literature and Culture. It was here that she developed her lifelong reverence for language—a tool she now uses as a writer and poet to help others process the raw and the honest. Even her first job at Holland & Barrett, earned just days after secondary school, hinted at her future path in the wellness space. Though she didn’t have the terminology then, she was already observing the intersection of health, community, and the human struggle to feel well. These early years solidified a core belief that has become the anchor of her career: connection is the greatest form of currency.
The Shift from Enduring to Embodying
For over twenty years, Victoria navigated the world of entrepreneurship as a small business owner. On the outside, she was the picture of strength and capability. Inside, however, she was battling the “good girl narrative”—a systemic conditioning that rewards silence and over-functioning. She realized that she had spent years succeeding in environments that demanded she ignore her body’s signals.
The ascent of Victoria’s current career began when she stopped performing and started listening. This pivot led to the birth of Radical Rhythms Coaching. She recognized that true leadership is not about how much one can endure, but about the capacity of the nervous system to remain regulated under pressure. This insight birthed her Righteous Rage workshops—an explosive, visceral paint experience where women use destruction as a gateway to synthesis. By allowing women to spew it all onto the canvas, Victoria provides a safe container for the divine feminine rage that so many have been taught to suppress.
Sovereignty in the Classroom and the Boardroom
Victoria’s impact is expanding into two critical frontiers: education and corporate culture. She is currently pioneering a Somatic Education Program for schools, challenging the notion that problem behavior is a disciplinary issue. “The epidemic of dysregulated, overwhelmed children in our classrooms is not a behavior problem,” she asserts. “It is a nervous system problem.” By teaching children to understand how emotions live in their bodies, she is planting the seeds for a generation of emotionally sovereign adults.
In the corporate world, Victoria is dismantling the normalization of exhaustion. Her corporate wellness offerings address burnout as a systemic failure rather than a personal weakness. By implementing the FIRE Method, she helps organizations move away from high performance built on quiet depletion and toward a model where teams lead from capacity rather than survival. As a leader, Victoria advocates for a deliberate disconnect from the digital noise, urging the next generation—Gen Z—to reclaim the immersive joy of being fully present.
A Legacy of Tenderness and Truth
Looking toward the future, Victoria remains guided by the wisdom found in the pages of literature. She often reflects on a quote from Ocean Vuong: “To stay tender, the weight of your life cannot lean on your bones.” Her ultimate goal is to lighten that weight for others, ensuring that the global citizen can access joy, creativity, and connection despite the heaviness of the world.
Whether she is leading a WILD WORD writing circle in East London or consulting with forward-thinking executives, Victoria Ahmed is a catalyst for change. She is a reminder that when we return to our bodies, we return to our power. Her legacy will not be measured just in the number of women she reaches, but in the depth of the freedom they find.
“The sooner you learn to live as yourself, the happier you will be,” she concludes. For Victoria, radical freedom isn’t a destination—it’s a rhythm.
Editorial Note
Victoria Ahmed’s journey from a seasoned entrepreneur to a somatic visionary serves as a powerful testament to the necessity of inner alignment. Her work challenges us to look beyond the surface of productivity and address the underlying health of our nervous systems. As she continues her mission to impact 10,000 women and transform our educational systems, Victoria invites us all to ask: Who are we when we stop performing and start living?
