Equity is a Love Language with Sonia Lewis
Episode 33
“Born a rebel she experienced alienation early. But that never deterred her from her life’s purpose. Her father dealt with his struggles very differently than her mother and she learned from them both. As a result, she has grown into her own position on diversity and equity and now Sonia Lewis is calling for openness and reconciliation in the hope of creating a world where all its children can play on a leveled playing field. Whether this talk encourages you to be bolder or pushes your buttons, it’s another boundary breaking true story that we all need to hear from another bold and fearless F50Woman.”
