How do you reclaim your voice when life has silenced you at every turn?
Born with a rare genetic disorder and subjected to 30+ surgeries, Sophia Soul spent her early years trapped in cycles of chronic pain, bullying, and emotional abuse. From suicidal lows to feeling invisible in a world that couldn’t hold her—Sophia’s story could’ve ended there.
But instead… she rose.
This week on Rabbit Hole Reflections, Sophia shares her raw descent into despair and sacred rise into sovereignty, healing, and spiritual leadership. Her transformation proves that even the deepest wounds can become portals to power, purpose, and truth.
“Everything I lived through became part of the alchemy. I wasn’t being punished. I was being prepared.” — Sophia Soul
