Welcome to Mindful Transition Coaching

I wasn't just born into the world - I fought my way in. Premature. Fragile. Fighting to breathe before I even knew what a full breath felt like.

That moment shaped more than my body - it shaped my wiring. It fave me a heightened sensitivity to the world, a deep instinct for survival, and a life-long pattern of proving I was okay... even when I wasn't. 

I grew up as a quiet observer. A loyal daughter. A high-achiever. I learned early how to read a room, meet needs that weren't voiced, and carry weight that wasn't mine. 

And for a long time, that made me successful. Career. Marriage. Motherhood. Leadership. Mentoring multi-billion dollar projects. I was ticking every box, smiling through every meeting, mentoring other women while forgetting myself.

Until my body whispered..."No more."

Until burnout, a heart condition, and emotional fatigue brought me to a mirror I could no longer avoid. 

And in that moment, something shifted. I stopped striving - and started centring.  Not in control. But in truth. 

I'm Sonya - part coach, part rebel, and full-time truth- teller. 

I was the high-achiever who could tick every box society handed me: career, marriage, motherhood - all while smiling politely and never dropping the ball.

But behind the scenes?

I was drowning in responsibility, silencing my needs, and slowly disappearing under the weight of Superwoman Syndrome. 

For years, I delivered multi-billion dollar government and corporate initiatives, mentored emerging leaders, and high-performing teams across sectors. To the outside world, I was in control - strategic, capable, always one step ahead. But inside? I was burning out. 

My wake-up call came wrapped in a heart condition, career disillusionment, and mirror moment that asked: "Who even are you anymore?"

That crack was the beginning of everything. 

I didn't just rebuild - I reclaimed. And now, I help other women do the same. 

I don't coach from a pedestal.

I walk alongside you - because I am you.

A woman who led with her head until she reconnected with her heart. A woman who believed strength meant doing it all alone - until she learned that softness is its own form of power. 

I guid women who are smart, capable, and emotionally exhausted to gently unravel the conditioning, the roles, and the reactive patterns they never chose - but inherited. 

Together, we: 

• Understand your emotional triggers without shame.
• Rewrite the patterns that keep you stuck in cycles or guilt, perfectionism, and over-giving. 
• Learn to lead from a place of alignment - not fear.
• Build relationships (with yourself and others) that feel like truth, not duty. 

This is the gentle deep work. It's not about fixing you - because you're not broken. It's about coming home to the version of you that was never truly lost - just buried under all the "should's." 

This is caching for women who are done performing and ready to live, lead, and love from their centred self.
