From Crown to Calling
Queen V Fitness Ministries was born from both victory and adversity.
After earning the titles of Mrs. South Dakota International 2020 and America’s Fit Ms. 2021, I stood on international stages representing strength, discipline, and faith. But the real transformation didn’t happen under the lights — it happened in the quiet preparation seasons before the glam.
It happened in the battles.
In the rebuilding.
In the moments and years when God reshaped my identity beyond titles, achievements, or performance.
I learned that transformation is sacred.
It takes time.
And it begins from within — with God.
Why I Created Queen V Fitness Ministries
I founded Queen V Fitness Ministries to create the space I once needed.
A space where women do not have to perform.
A space where strength is developed from the inside out.
A space where faith and fitness are not separated — but aligned.
This ministry exists for women navigating midlife and beyond who are ready to:
- Rebuild their health
- Renew their mindset
- Restore their identity
- Reclaim their confidence
- Walk boldly in their divine assignment
Not through hustle.
Not through trends.
But through truth, discipline, grace, and time.
My Mission
Love Who You Are • Believe in Yourself • Live Victoriously
If you read that and felt peace instead of pressure — you’re in the right place.

YOU MAY BE WONDERING...
Here’s a little more about my story, the mission, and the heart behind Queen V Fitness Ministries™.
Who Is Queen V?
I’m Victoria Borges, “Queen V,” and before I’m a fitness coach, ministry leader, student, speaker, or pageant title holder, I’m simply a woman who has learned what it means to trust God one step at a time.
My journey hasn’t been without trials, and it certainly hasn’t been easy. Like many women, I’ve experienced seasons of uncertainty, grief, fear, disappointment, starting over, and learning how to rebuild when life didn’t go according to my plan.
For years, I believed strength meant pushing harder, doing more, and trying to carry everything on my own. I was anxious about the things and expectations of the world. What God has taught me is that His way is very different from the world’s way.
Jesus said,
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
— Matthew 11:28True strength is not found in striving harder. It is found in surrendering to God and learning to walk with Him one step at a time.
It’s found in trusting His promises when you can’t see the outcome. It’s found in taking the next step—or sometimes a leap of faith—even when you don’t have the entire plan. It’s found in believing that God is still working, even during seasons of storms.
One of the most unexpected chapters of my life came when God led me into the world of pageantry. It wasn’t something I had dreamed about or pursued on my own. In fact, I resisted it.
At age 55, and shortly after the loss of my mother, I found myself standing at a crossroads. God was asking me to step into something completely outside my comfort zone. Eventually, I realized the issue wasn’t pageantry—it was obedience.
That experience taught me a lesson that continues to shape my life today: God often calls us beyond what feels comfortable so we can discover what is possible through Him.
Today, my passion is helping women strengthen their bodies, renew their minds, deepen their faith, and embrace the unique purpose God has placed on their lives.
I believe transformation is rarely instant. Like Queen Esther’s year of preparation, sometimes breakthroughs happen one faithful day at a time. Real change isn’t built through quick fixes, perfection, or striving. It is built through consistency, grace, faith, and a willingness to keep saying yes to God.
My prayer is that when you leave this page, you won’t remember my story as much as you’ll remember this truth:
God is not finished with you yet.
He still has a purpose for your life.
Key Scriptures:
Matthew 11:28 • Esther 2:12 • Philippians 4:13 • Jeremiah 29:11What Is Queen V Fitness Ministries™?
Queen V Fitness Ministries™ was born from a simple belief:
God cares about every part of us.
Not just our spiritual health.
Not just our physical health.
Not just our emotional and mental well-being.
All of it.
For years, I searched for answers in separate places. Fitness programs focused on the body. Personal development focused on the mind. Churches often focused primarily on the spirit.
But God began showing me that true transformation happens when all three work together.
Just as a three-legged stool needs every leg to stand strong, we need strength in body, mind, and spirit to live the life God has called us to live.
Queen V Fitness Ministries™ exists to help women pursue that kind of wholeness.
This is not about comparison or becoming someone else.
And it’s certainly not about keeping up with the world’s standards.
It’s about becoming healthier, stronger, wiser, and more confident in who God uniquely created you to be.
The best version of you isn’t someone else.
You are one of a kind. You are His masterpiece.
Through faith, fitness, encouragement, biblical truth, community, and practical tools, my mission is to help women embrace growth, healing, restoration, and purpose—one step at a time.
Consistency Is Power!
This ministry is built on the belief that transformation is possible, God’s promises are true, and no season of life is beyond His ability to redeem.
Because when God is involved, nothing is impossible.
And when we learn to see ourselves through His eyes instead of our own, we discover that we truly are Perfect For Your Purpose™.
Key Scriptures:
Ephesians 2:10 • Matthew 22:37-39 • Romans 12:2 • 1 Thessalonians 5:23Why Am I So Passionate About Helping Women?
Because my Heavenly Father is passionate about them.
The closer I’ve grown to Him, the more I’ve come to love the things He loves and care about the things He cares about.
I know what it feels like to believe you only deserve crumbs, to doubt your worth, and to wonder if God’s promises are really for you.
I know what it feels like to question your value, struggle with your identity, and wonder if your best days are behind you.
But I’ve experienced His restoration, His faithfulness, and His love firsthand.
I’ve discovered that God’s promises are not just for other people. They’re for each of us.
Now my greatest joy is helping women discover that they, too, are deeply loved, deeply valued, and created for a purpose.
Because of who God says you are.
That is the heartbeat behind Queen V Fitness Ministries™.
My Father is passionate about His daughters, and I want to help them remember who they are and teach them what He taught me:
Love Who You Are.
Believe In Yourself.
Live Victoriously.
Key Scriptures:
Zephaniah 3:17 • Jeremiah 31:3 • Ephesians 2:10Who Do You Help?
I help women navigate the space between who they’ve been and who God is calling them to become.
Many of the women I serve find themselves in a season they never expected.
Life doesn’t look the way they thought it would.
The future feels uncertain.
The things that once seemed clear no longer do.
And somewhere along the way, they find themselves confronting questions they never expected to ask.
Who am I now?
What does my future look like?
Do I still matter?
Did I miss my opportunity?
Are my best years behind me?
Maybe you’ve spent years pouring yourself into your family, your career, your marriage, your children, your community, or the people you love.
You gave your time.
Your energy.
Your strength.
Your heart.
Because that’s what needed to be done.
And now, instead of feeling fulfilled, you feel exhausted.
Uncertain.
Stuck.
Maybe even lost.
Not because you’ve failed, but because the chapter you built your life around has changed, and you’re trying to understand what comes next.
I understand those questions because I’ve wrestled with them too.
I know what it’s like when the ground beneath your feet feels uncertain.
I know what it’s like to face disappointment, unexpected detours, loss, transition, and seasons that don’t look anything like you imagined they would.
I know what it’s like to start over.
To rebuild.
To heal.
To grow.
And to learn to trust God not only as a trustworthy God, but as a God who can be trusted with your life, your future, and your next step.
What I’ve discovered is that the crisis is often deeper than our circumstances.
When life changes, many of us no longer know who we are.
The roles change.
The titles change.
The responsibilities change.
And suddenly we’re forced to confront a question we may have avoided for years:
Who am I apart from all the things I’ve done for everyone else?
That’s where true transformation begins.
Because your value was never found in a title, a role, a career, a relationship, or the expectations of others.
Your value was established by God long before you earned a title, filled a role, achieved a goal, or met someone else’s expectations.
And what feels like an ending may actually be the beginning of a new chapter He has been preparing all along.
That’s why my heart is to walk alongside women who are ready to stop letting fear, disappointment, uncertainty, or past experiences define what’s possible.
Women who are ready to believe that God still has a purpose for their lives.
Women who are ready to discover who He says they are, embrace the calling He has placed on their lives, and step into the next chapter with faith instead of fear.
Women who are ready to believe that what feels lost can be restored, what feels wasted can be redeemed, and that their story is not over.
My mission is not to help you chase the world’s standards, expectations, or definitions of success.
My mission is to help you become more fully who God created you to be.
Because I believe your best years are not behind you.
I believe God is still writing your story.
And I believe you are Perfect For Your Purpose™.
Key Scriptures:
Joel 2:25 • Haggai 2:9 • Jeremiah 29:11 • Romans 8:28What Is Perfect For Your Purpose™?
Perfect For Your Purpose™ begins with agreement.
Agreement with what God says about you.
Agreement with the truth that you are His workmanship, His masterpiece, created intentionally and with divine purpose.
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
— Ephesians 2:10Too often we spend our lives disagreeing with our Creator.
Who are we to tell the Lord of Heaven and Earth that what He created is not good enough?
Who are we to argue with the One who formed us, called us, redeemed us, and gave His Son for us?
We compare ourselves to others.
We focus on what we lack.
We wait until we feel ready, qualified, healed enough, successful enough, confident enough, or our idea of perfect enough before stepping into what God has called us to do.
Perfect For Your Purpose™ is not a declaration that we are flawless.
It is a declaration that God is.
He wants us to see ourselves through His eyes instead of our own.
Just as we receive the righteousness of Christ by faith, we can also receive by faith God’s truth about who He says we are.
God is not waiting for you to get it all together.
You can’t earn worthiness through performance.
He is inviting you to accept, receive, and walk in the identity He has already freely given you.
Consider this…
God does not create mistakes.
He creates masterpieces.
There has never been another you.
Just look at your fingerprints—one of a kind.
He creates originals.
That is why you matter.
That is why your purpose matters.
That is why each one of us matters.
Perfect For Your Purpose™ is an invitation to stop waiting for everything to line up just right according to your understanding.
God has already set you up to flourish.
And when you agree with God, everything begins to change.
Because…
Today You ARE Perfect For Your Purpose™.
Begin now…
To love who you are because He loves you.
To believe in yourself because you believe what God says about you.
And to live victoriously as you walk with Him.
Key Scriptures:
Ephesians 2:10 • Psalm 139:14 • Romans 8:1 • 2 Corinthians 5:17Why Journey to the Crown™?
Journey to the Crown™ is the heart of everything I teach.
The crown is not a symbol of perfection. It’s a symbol of purpose, obedience, and transformation.
God works in the process before He reveals the promise.
It’s a reminder that God created each of us with unique gifts, a unique calling, and a unique journey for such a time as this.
Like Queen Esther’s year of preparation, many of the most important transformations take time, long before the results are visible.
Too often, women believe they have missed their opportunity, wasted too much time, made too many mistakes, or fallen too far behind to become who God intended them to be.
I used to believe that too.
I have come to know that God is still writing my story. It’s not too late.
The journey to the crown is not about arriving overnight. It is not about quick fixes, instant results, or becoming someone else.
It is about consistency.
It is about intention.
It is about faith.
It is about learning to trust God one step at a time.
Every woman’s crown looks different.
It may be restored health and renewed confidence.
It may be deeper faith, greater peace, or the courage to pursue a dream she has carried for years but set aside.
The destination may look different, but the invitation is the same:
Keep moving forward.
Every faithful step moves you forward on the journey God has prepared for you.
Because God is not finished with you yet, Sis.
