Be The Queen Of Your Life! - How To GET UP & Become A Confident BADASS | Sonja Stribling

WARNING: I will never ask for your contact info in the comments section, that is someone impersonating me!

[@tellavisiontav3033]

I love this. I'm 73 young. 15 years old I was raped by my father. My mother didn't believe me. I was never ashamed I was 15 years old. I told what happened. I was a virgin. My mother took me to the doctor he confirmed I was raped. I called the police and my mother would not press charges. Detective Banks I would be sent to a g irls home. My mother sent me live with her friend in a other city. I cried 10 years. Because I was forced to leave my family through no fault of my own. I am successful today and I share my stories with women on my tv show and when I speak to inspire women. This is the beginning of my life. I have endured so much in my life. Dropped out of high school because I got pregnant. Then married had 3 more children. Started a school. Divorced. Got 2 degrees. Bought my home Bankruptcy and so much more. I am an author, looking for love at 73 and sharing my stories because our experiences are not for us but for others. Thank you for sharing your stories. God bless you Queens.

[@tonicsmith44]

Your testimony ❤❤❤🙏🏾 I can relate to your life story.

[@tellavisiontav3033]

@@tonicsmith44 sadly there are so many who can. but the blessing is we are a testimony of success to others, and they need to see and hear those of us who survived are now thriving victoriously. our experiences are for others. God allows us to go through grow through our traumas because the battle is not ours it belongs to God. that's why I am grateful. When we tell our story we help so many. Continue Rising. God Got you/us.

I can relate but it was a cuz I had a child by the rape and 61 am still healing it’s like am so stuck

[@tellavisiontav3033]

@@burnerdeanowens2462 I understand, healing is a process. It took me sometime too but what helped me and continues to help me is the fact that God has me. My experience has helped many women. You are blessed because you made it a lot did not. You are young. You are here for a reason. Focus on that. Remember Yolanda Adams song "the battle is not yours, it's the Lords also listen to Hezakiah Walker's God Favors Me. Please listen to the lyrics of those songs. You got a gift. What happened to you, God knew our experiences will help others. Look at Oprah, Maya Anjelou and Pastor Joyce Meyers, all were sexually abused and look how they have helped so many women by telling their stories. YOU GOT THIS!!!

[@thefreequency]

I always lived by: "share your story, you never know when you are going to unlock someone else's prison." I have noticed that some people are very uncomfortable when others are vulnerable around them. And that is the sticky part, to be compassionate of others while being true to yourself.

[@ladonnamorrison3616]

This is such a powerful "chat" between two truly inspirational women. It really didn't feel like an interview to me - more like two likeminded souls coming together, sharing of themselves with the rest of us, so that we can learn and grow from our past in ways that can take us from the battlefield to the boardroom. I have learned, cried, laughed and felt the most inspired in 2024. I will definitely keep this one on repeat. You hit sooo many truths that speak to my own journey and I am sure countless others. Kudos to you both.💞

[@dialmstyle]

Dr. Sonja! I met her virtually through Periscope about 9 years ago and here she is! Beautiful, inspirational. You both make for an amazing episode!

Thank you Ms. Sonja Stribling and Lisa Bilyeu for this amazing, authentic interview. Feels like two good friends chatting it up. So much gem from Ms. Sonja.

[@lexlow2780]

My soon to be ex husband made me feel like the ugliest person as well. That hit home! Geeze…

[@JCX-9]

I went through the same, it just shows their inadequacy so they have to make you feel as inadequate as they feel. Anybody who feels good about themselves will never try to bring you down.

[@jameskelly9243]

That's cause your gender thinks emotionally not logically. So you blame others for your failings

[@lindayeboahboateng4793]

Absolutely. My husband made me feel that too but at a point I realized that it's not me who is the problem, he is rather projecting his negativity and instability to me. So I started focusing on myself and my mental health and took a step away from him. Yet to process my divorce though, but I love the peace I am enjoying now

Loved that interview with Sonya 💕 I'm 53 struggeled all my life, guess my super power is indurance and keep trying even when nothing realy worked, but I know my self and I don't belive I would be capable to do what I do without wemen like you I can look up too, didn't happen often befor I knew this Amazing moovement, gives me hope for me and for humanity, at least those who staves for change and don't know how will jump on all those informations I needed and still need. Your my support and I never felt as supported as NOW Even if you don't know me, you describe me and love poeple like me and for me that's huge There's magic, real healing juste by lissening and put intoo action. Love Wonderwomen, didn't grew up with her, but since a saw the film I changed my posture more and more because I love her posture 🤣 I 💖 how she keeps her arms a litel behind and I do that too and I found out that's a very good one 👍🙌 I had a strong wake up when I read a book with amazons and feminin initiations. And I decided that my life was my initiation, put truly I was in a deep fog, frozzen, didn't found a way out of chronic pain, lost the plaisur to walk and went so numb that I coulden't feel it most of the time and with cptsd, unknown, I had chronic fatigue syndrôme and felt threatened all the time, my mind was blocked on " you can't proove me that nothing terrible can happens, in some seconds ahead... I knew it had no scence but it didn't change my fear, I was a basquette case, still ame a, but I'm a lost case for them and all I get from them is hard medication, at least it protects me against the strong stress, I was loosing my hear, and those big fears. But even with that medication I feel again and I love it. Some times it's strong and anger feels so good and fear fades away. I know how to deal with anger and I'm so releaft too feel it again and how I want to bite. I come back 🙏🏼😘

She is definitely me...I train warriors....I Am a warrior....I Am Enough. Know ThySelf....Know Self Love first. Have a partnership first... Push people to love themselves first... 😊People who lack Self Love and those who forget that we "Reap what we sow" have to settle. It's a learning experience and as you mature, you learn that you you dont have to be stuck in it. Connection is ok.....but Connect with yourself first... I would rather be in a partnership than to be married. I love myself enough to Know I Am Enough. I won't waste my precious journey trying to live on man-made ideals of thinking I have to put up with anyone who is Not maturing spiritually. Listening to Inner Guidance is the key to Inner peace, love, joy & extreme happiness 😊....I definitely Give what I want to Receive. .....and that is very fulfilling. Life is simple. We make it too hard. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
