Despite being the sister of the most powerful men in Finland, Valborg did not benefit in her struggle to protect the convent.
Instead, her brothers took advantage of her difficult position, and they forced her to sign over a great amount of the convent's assets in exchange for their support and financial help.
Valborg instead appealed directly to Gustav I of Sweden, and successfully asked for the convent to keep the property it owned upon its foundation from confiscation: she was in fact also granted two estates more for the abbey's upkeep (1530).
This saved the convent financially (if temporarily) and made it possible to support their members.
In 1534, Valborg left the convent and settled with her brother Erik on his estate Svidja in Sjundeå parish.
