Welcome to the New Mommy at 40 tribe!
I’m your host, Victoria Lauture Duncker and I’m excited to build this community with you! My life as an actor, flight attendant, host and inspirational speaker had me traveling all around the world.
After two (decade-long each) relationships ended, the hope of having a life-long, loving partner, having children and building a life together, didn't seem as attainable as I thought it would be.
Then came 40...I couldn't believe all the time that had passed! I also came into the understanding of my power, rebuilding my ability to trust again and put in the work to be comfortable in my skin.
That same year, I met my loving husband and a
fter experiencing a miscarriage (along with PCOS issues), our darling “rainbow” baby was born!
New Mommy at 40 Podcast was created shortly after losing my mother in 2021. A friend of hers, in an attempt to comfort me said, “I’m so glad your mother got a chance to meet your daughter before she passed; We wondered for years: What’s wrong with Victoria?”. Having just suffered another miscarriage in silence just 3 weeks before, I heard the calling to follow in the footsteps of the female storytellers in my family - to break my silence. I felt the need to create a space to laugh, cry, scream, share, heal and educate through those awkward moments we experience as older parents and support one another.
And here we are! I’m so happy you stopped by. Enjoy the podcast!
Warmly,
Victoria
