We Forgive Strangers but Punish the People We Love (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We sometimes forgive businesses, celebrities, and strangers after they demonstrate change, yet continue punishing the people we love for mistakes they made years ago. Listen in as I ask whether we are seeking true accountability or keeping someone imprisoned by a version of themselves that no longer exists.
Same person, different eyes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Yes, that is a picture of a 12-year-old Sonya. LOL. I guess I thought I was styling. Now, about the podcast: How much of your life are you spending trying to control how other people see you? Listen in as I reflect on perception, personal growth, and learning the difference between becoming a better person and constantly trying to prove who you are.
My Vulnerability Then Is My Strength Now (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In celebration of episode 300, I am reflecting on the woman I was when this podcast began and the stronger, wiser, more vulnerable woman I am today. Our past experiences may mold us, but they do not have to keep us in a choke hold, and as long as we have breath in our lungs, we still have room to grow.
100% Human 100% of the time (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m 100% human, 100% of the time, and while I’m nowhere near perfect, I can look back and see the growth. Listen in as I speak about recognizing our triggers, giving ourselves credit for handling things better than we used to, and understanding that growth isn’t about never getting angry, making mistakes, or falling back...it’s about catching ourselves sooner, choosing differently, and continuing to become better than we were yesterday.
Just say thank you (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sometimes the smallest acts of kindness leave the biggest impact. Listen in as I talk about learning to receive compliments with gratitude, give love freely, look people in the eyes, and never underestimate how much a kind word can change someone’s day.
