About Sophia
Sophia, as a small child was trapped by fear, shame and guilt, which she carried around in an invisible but very heavy backpack. It was beyond exhausting and she unknowingly carried these negative emotions into adulthood and allowed them and others to keep her trapped, albeit in a different situation with a different jailor.
While in this new cage, even more sadness and pain squished into the already bulging sack that she carried as she tried to navigate motherhood and life in general. It took time, courage and becoming close to breaking point for Sophia to face the darkness that had engulfed her life and that was still holding her prisoner.
She began to unpack her traumatic story, paragraph by paragraph. With each emerging paragraph, more memories came to light, memories that had laid buried for a lifetime. Throughout this journey she learnt to love herself as she held the little girl that she once was, which slowly released her from the claws of guilt and shame.
During this time she had to make some difficult choices and dramatic changes to her life, as she bravely accepted how she had allowed others during her adult life to continue to mistreat her. She has now freed herself from chains that once held her so cruelly and tightly and continues to share her story as a way to support and inspire others around the globe.
