Everyday Disruptors With Sophia Ufy Ukor

CONTENT WARNING: This episode includes discussions about rape, sexual assault, abuse, suicide and mental illness. Please listen with care.

Not feeling like you matter, that you don’t fit or that your voice deserves to be heard is a familiar feeling to many of us.

Afraid to stand out, we conform and squeeze ourselves into the narrow margins of societal norms. But, history has shown us that every transformative force of positive change has only ever happened with a disruption of the status quo.

It’s not easy to go against the grain, to risk being rejected, isolated or deemed difficult. It takes tenacity, vulnerability and bravery, but everyday there are people who are doing just that.

My guest this week is Sophia Ufy Ukor, who is one of those who has never allowed her past to define her and has gone out of her way to amplify the voices and stories of everyday ‘disruptors’ - people like you and me who took daring risks to pave the way for change.

My conversation with Sophia has reminded me that my voice matters just as much as the next person’s and that it’s only by championing each other, that we can create a space for positive change to happen. None of us need to be defined by our past or to try and fit into a hole that feels too tight or too big. There is a place for us all in this world, I hope you find yours.

If you enjoyed this episode of Flip It, I would be hugely grateful if you could rate, review and subscribe. It really will help me to discover and share more stories and voices that deserve to be heard.
