9. The Great Collapse and the Great Awakening (Part 1)

Part 1 of a 3-part special in which Sonya tells the tale of her 2020 experience, which she calls her "great collapse" as well as, paradoxically, a time of great spiritual awakening. She outlines the unfolding of one life-shattering week in March 2020: her precious dog Anastasia being rushed to the emergency vet (Monday) and diagnosed with terminal liver cancer (Tuesday), her partner confessing falling in love with a coworker (Wednesday), the demise of Sonya's relationship (Thursday), the entire country of Aotearoa / New Zealand shutting down due to COVID (Friday), and Sonya asking her partner to move out (Saturday). In this episode, Sonya discusses leaving the US for Aotearoa in 2017; the global emergence of COVID while she was on a 3-week book tour in the US; coming home to Aotearoa; and the implosion of her relationship and seemingly her entire life in the course of one week.

On the edge of your seat for what happens next? Part 2 drops Monday, March 3rd for Patreon and Tuesday, March 4th for everyone else. Stay tuned ♥️
