37 and starting again...

Hi,
My name is Sonia and I'm 37 years old.
I play music with my twin sister
and we call ourselves Jayesslee.
I am a mum to two amazing boys,
Jordan 9, and Levi 7.
I became a single mum 5 years ago.
I questioned my life after the divorce.
I needed answers so I began seeking.
I'm now 18 months into the journey and
I’ve reached the part where I have to
face my fears.
I'm doing all the things that scare me.
Being vulnerable, sharing art,
trying new things and
making mistakes.
Finding NIA is about facing fears
and finding purpose.
I have no idea where this will take me
but welcome to the first episode.
Sonia x

    Needed this!!!♥️ “Enough of drifting and really just wanna go for it” mentality really hits home. I am at a crossroads in life, about to move to a new country to start anew and feeling anxious about the unknown. This video gave me the courage to embrace changes, and feels less alone walking alongside you ♥️ Thanks for showing us your vulnerable side and bravely documenting this journey of self discovery. We are all work in progress & the best is yet to come. This is going to inspire so many hearts and soul …✨ love you♥️

    Brave! They say the feeling of anxiety is the same as excitement and often we cannot differentiate between the two when emotions are heightened. Whenever you feel anxious, perhaps you can guide yourself to feel excited for the new adventures ahead! Cheering you on 🔥

    This is very inspiring for everyone having to "start over" again at a later point in their lives. As a kid we think we'll meet the one we will spend our life with in our 20s and live happily ever after. Starting over in your 30s is absolutely terrifying. It's nice to go on this journey with you.

    So close to crying. Warmest Welcome back, Nia🧡 Thank you for showing up, not for us but for yourself and sharing your journey with us. Be graceful with yourself - there's gonna be ups and downs, you may go one step forward and be thrown back 5. And yet this doesn't mean you're not moving. I feel like a lot of people are going thru this- each to his/her own timing - not hating but loving ourselves into change. Can't wait to follow along and watch you unfold🧡
