Podcast Episode #204: Don't Let Anyone Burst Your Bubble Episode Summary: Have you ever felt like the rug was pulled out from under your entire life? In this deeply personal episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my own "Season of Completion." We are currently navigating 2025—a Year 9 in numerology—which is all about closing doors, finishing cycles, and letting go of what no longer serves our highest evolution. I’m sharing the raw reality of my own 7+ year relationship ending abruptly and the humbling, yet magical experience of moving back into my parents' home at 52. This is 18 minutes of heart-pouring honesty about grief, the resilience of the ND brain, and the absolute necessity of protecting your "bubble" while you learn to pivot into your next great chapter. In This Episode, We Discuss: The Power of the 9 Year: Why 2025 is demanding "completion" from all of us and how to recognize what is being cleared from your path.The 7-Year Itch vs. The 7-Year End: Processing the shock of a long-term relationship ending when you never saw it coming.The Mid-Life Pivot: Moving back to your roots at 52—breaking the stigma and finding the "magic" in the mess.Protecting Your Bubble: How to maintain your internal peace and energy when the external world feels like it’s collapsing.The Art of the Pivot: Why the most painful endings are often the most precise course corrections for your future self.Memorable Quotes: "2025 is a Year 9—a season of completion. Sometimes the universe doesn't just knock on the door; it takes the whole house down so you can build something better." "At 52, I found myself back where I started. It wasn't a failure; it was a return to my foundation so I could pivot with purpose."

Show Notes for Episode 200: Readiness "Heart to Heart" with Remona Allyouneed. Watch it here I have known Remona since 2023 when we met a a job fair. She knew that I didn't belong there, but we locked eyes across the room, and we were destined to meet. Two years later, we have been working together on Sonya Janisse, a Wellness Company, and Remona has learned so much about herself while going on this journey towards happiness.  There is magic is learning something new about ourselves, and it has taken many years for Remona to learn how to shed her negative thoughts, energy, and habits from her life. She is a work in progress. If she could give any advice to the audience today, it would be to keep working on yourself. There is no limit to what we can achieve, but if we don't try, we'll never know.  Remona has worked through my Design Your Life, Your Way Guidebook, and I am very curious to learn what she gained from those 30 days of soul-searching questions I asked her. She admits that it was a lot of work, and some days might have gotten skipped, but now that she has completed it, how has it changed her life, and what words of wisdom would she offer to someone considering making a change in their life today. Today, for my milestone Episode #200!!!, I would like to welcome my guest, Remona Johnson, who has lived quite the journey as an immigrant from England, via India, growing up in rural Saskatchewan, and learning that small town life isn't so bad, but the city can have its perks, too. She went from high school in Saskatoon to the University of Waterloo, where she developed into a young adult as an electrical engineer. Today, she has moved away from her technical career as she helps me with the administrative side of things,  while she looks for work in the healthcare field as a customer service or patient representative. She has a husband of 11 years and a 10-year-old son, and the past two years have put her on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and reinvention.  I have loved getting to know Remona throughout this journey as I have learned so much about her and her family, and what she values most. I look forward to seeing where she is at these days, as we haven't been able to connect much since her busy summer, and we have a special treat for you today because, for my 200th episode, Remona has agreed to go on a live coaching call with me. So let's lean in, cozy up, and get ready to listen to some real-life coaching! Throughout this episode, we unpack: readiness, staying in the past vs forward, the feelings of vulnerability, and what it feels like to "shake off your Spiderweb" At the end of the day, Remona has a goal of feeling like she is on a mountain, "meditating and levitating." Thank you, Remona, for being on our show. And for sharing such an impactful story.xx ..Ready to ditch the frustration and step into a life of unstoppable clarity and confidence?

Episode Title: Stop Dimming Your Light, How to Brighten Your Light – The ND Edition (Gen X Women) Host: Sonya Janisse Date: Oct 9, 2025 Runtime: Approx. 25:00 Note: There is about a one to two minute period of silence where my headphones needed to be recharged... just keeping it human Watch the vidoe clip here https://youtu.be/3diruf9vXkY ☕ Episode Summary: Your Light Is Not Broken Are you a neurodivergent Gen X woman who feels utterly exhausted from constantly "performing normal"? Do you spend more energy masking than actually achieving? This episode is for the high-achieving woman who has spent decades using a dimmer switch on her own brilliance just to fit in. Join host, Sonya Janisse, for a candid, coffee-side chat where we dive into why masking is dimming your potential and, more importantly, we give you three neuro-friendly, practical actions to start turning that light back up—without burning out. Your success doesn't lie in how well you mimic others; it lies in how fully you embrace yourself. 💡 Key Takeaways: The Brightness Blueprint We covered three common traps that lead to dimming and three essential actions to take. The Three Traps of Dimming (The Shadow Work): The Burden of the Mask: The pure exhaustion of constantly performing "normal" for the neurotypical world, draining energy that could be used for brilliance. Fear of Rejection: The generational trauma of being excluded or criticized for being "too much," which keeps us small. Internalized Ableism: The inner critic that tells you your unique wiring is a flaw that needs to be "fixed" before you deserve to shine. The Three Actions to Brighten Your Light (The Switch Flip): Identify Your 10% Unmasking Space: Choose one low-stakes environment (a friend, your home office) where you commit to dropping your mask by just 10% to conserve energy. Systemize the Stuff That Dims You: Externalize the administrative burden (keys, emails, bills) using tools, routines, and tech, freeing your brilliant brain for deep work. Your brain is not a good filing cabinet! Declare Your Needs, Not Your Diagnosis: Advocate for your optimal working conditions by stating the need (e.g., "I need written communication for key items") instead of justifying it with a diagnosis. 📢 Call to Action: Unmask 10% This Week! I want to see you shine! This week, choose one element of yourself you usually hide, and commit to unmasking it by 10% in your chosen safe space. Take a screenshot of this episode and share it on Instagram stories. Tell me: Where are you unmasking 10% this week? Use the hashtag #NDBrightLife and tag me @sonyajanisse I'll be sharing my favourite examples and cheering you on!

Show Notes for Episode 198: Not Good Enough Flipping the Script: Confidence, Anxiety, and Core Beliefs This week, I had a heartfelt and powerful conversation with the incredible Sabrina Trobak. We dug into a topic that so many of us grapple with: the impact of our deepest core beliefs on our mental and physical well-being. Have you ever felt like you're not good enough, not important, or not valued? Sabrina explains how past trauma can plant these beliefs, which then become the root of so much anxiety, self-doubt, and even anger. To cope, we often turn to unhealthy strategies like suppressing our emotions or staying perpetually busy. This episode really hit home for me, and one of the biggest questions we tackle is: What are you getting out of living in chaos? Sabrina and I explore how a life full of busyness and distraction can become a convenient way to avoid facing what's really going on inside. We also got really real about how weight can sometimes become a shield. We challenged ourselves to ask: Why are you hiding behind your weight? What is the benefit? It’s a powerful question that can lead to some eye-opening insights. My biggest takeaway from this conversation was that anxiety is actually a reflection of what you believe about yourself. If confidence is the sun, then anxiety is the shade. Sabrina beautifully connects our emotions to our biology, explaining how hormones like serotonin and cravings for sugar, fat, and starches all play a role. She gently reminds us that while "simple is not easy," learning to feel your emotions is the first step toward healing. Get ready for an episode full of laughter, deep truths, and a few amazing takeaways you won’t want to miss. Find the episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/8S9GQ2UHwbk ​​ Let's learn a little about Sabrina. Sabrina Trobak, based in Fort St. John, BC, Canada, is a registered clinical counsellor and the author of "Not Good Enough: Understanding Your Core Belief and Anxiety." She is also a clinical supervisor, public speaker and holds a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology. Before establishing her private practice, she dedicated over 20 years to education, serving as a teacher, vice principal, and school counsellor across three school divisions. Sabrina has extensive training in addressing past trauma and its effects on daily life, including anxiety and the core belief not good enough, not important, and not valued. Her counselling agency, Trobak Holistic Counselling, aims to help individuals identify, challenge, and transform these core beliefs into good enough, important, and valued.

Show Notes for Episode 197: New Twist on Old Tools In this week's heartfelt conversation, we're joined by special guest Erica Hoke, who shares her incredible journey to success with infertility through positive thinking and changes to the Standard American Diet. Erica provides resources, guidance, and encouragement for women looking to reclaim control over their fertility health. We dive into the amazing story of what happens when you remove toxins from your body, reminding ourselves that our skin is our largest organ. We discuss how scented laundry detergents and fabric softeners can saturate our sheets with chemicals that are then absorbed through our skin, entering the bloodstream and affecting internal organs. Erica is the perfect coach to help you find your purpose. She understands your journey because she has walked more than a mile in your shoes.

At 35, Erica made a powerful decision to reject the all-or-nothing scenarios often imposed on those facing fertility challenges. Instead of solely relying on her medical team, who told her I had less than a 1% chance of getting pregnant, She took control of the factors within her reach, believing that her body was not broken. She actively participated in her healthcare journey, delving into her medical testing, improving her diet, and seeking mental and physical healing opportunities. The incredible results spoke for themselves: not only did she successfully conceive once, but went on to become pregnant three more times. Incredibly all without the help of reproductive medicine. In fact,  She conceived my last son 7 years after being told she would need donor eggs. She believes the most exciting part is this approach isn't unique to her. By addressing root causes and embracing holistic healing, thousands of women have experienced transformative outcomes. Now, she dedicates herself to supporting women who are navigating their own fertility challenges. Through private coaching and the NurturePath Fertility Solution program, She provides resources, guidance, and encouragement to aid women in reclaiming control over their fertility health. Her coaching sessions are designed to empower women with the knowledge and tools they need to take an active role in their healthcare. Furthermore, she shares my story in my best-selling Infertility Success Series, hoping to inspire and reassure others that they aren't alone in their journey. She firmly believes that every woman's body holds an inherent wisdom and strength to heal.  Thank you, Erica, for being on our show. And for sharing such an impactful story. xx . .

Welcome back, you beautiful, brilliant messes! Watch the video version here https://youtu.be/vPOa0JZPR9U This week on the show, we’re ditching the doomsday bunkers and embracing the real-life readiness that matters. As neurodivergent, hormonal Gen X women, our lives are a glorious, chaotic testament to the phrase, “If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.” So, why even try to plan, right? We're diving into the art of low-effort preparedness, where a forgotten snack in your car is a mobile survival kit and a stash of emergency chocolate is a vital piece of crisis management. We’ll talk about how readiness isn't about having a color-coded binder; it's about building a little bit of wiggle room into our beautifully chaotic lives. Join us as we redefine what it means to be ready and share our ridiculously small victories. Don’t forget to do your one small, ridiculous act of preparedness this week, snap a picture, and tag us!

Podcast Episode 195_ When Hormones & Neurodivergence Collide Why Your Coping Mechanisms Are Failing. You're a GenX woman who has spent decades building a toolbox of strategies to manage your neurodivergence. But lately, things feel… different. The brain fog is thicker, the sensory overwhelm is more intense, and your usual coping mechanisms just aren't working. It’s not just you. For neurodivergent women in perimenopause, hormonal fluctuations can feel like a perfect storm. Estrogen and progesterone shifts can directly impact dopamine and serotonin, often exacerbating symptoms like executive dysfunction, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation. The tools that once served you so well may suddenly feel useless. Today, let's talk about why it's not a personal failure, but a biological reality—and why a holistic, compassionate approach is more important than ever. Does this sound familiar? What’s one symptom that has felt different lately?

I know how exhausting it can feel-carrying the weight of needing to have it all figured out. The late nights of overthinking. The silent prayers. The moments where nothing makes sense. But what if... just for today... you gave yourself permission to breathe? To not force the answers. To sit gently with the unknown. Sometimes, the most beautiful clarity doesn't come when we chase it—it arrives when we soften. When we stop demanding and start trusting. You're not falling behind. You're simply unfolding. Be kind to your heart today. You are exactly where you are supposed to be. Think of the song "December, 1963, oh what a night" ...oh what a week, oh what a month, oh what a year!!!!

In today's episode, we learned about Sheila's Four FUNdamentals. .... yeah, yeah, yeah OF course I added the FUN there :) TransformationStrategySelf-love; Self-careSpirtuality Which led the conversation to the 7 Habits of highly successful people. Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw Habit 7 is personal PC. It's preserving and enhancing the greatest asset you have -- you. It's renewing the four dimensions of your nature -- physical, spiritual, mental, and social/emotional. Philosopher Herb Shepherd describes the healthy balanced life around four values: perspective (spiritual), autonomy (mental), connectedness (social), and tone (physical). George Sheehan, the running guru, describes four roles: being a good animal (physical), a good craftsman (mental), a good friend (social), and a saint (spiritual). Sound motivation and organization theory embrace these four dimensions or motivations -- the economic (physical); how people are treated (social); how people are developed and used (mental); and the service, the job, the contribution the organization gives (spiritual). "Sharpen the Saw" basically means expressing all four motivations. It means exercising all four dimensions of our nature, regularly and consistently, in wise and balanced ways. Sheila & I tapped into being Intuitive, Analytical, and EmpathicThere is so much power in the small, everyday habits that curate your future. We constantly get stuck, and when we do, what happens? What do we do? What action do we take, especially in business for ourselves? Our uniqueness is based on our thoughts, behaviors, and beliefs. When working with a business coach, a life coach, a holistic health coach, your coach becomes a reflection of your truth. Having someone to talk with will lead you to discover what you might not know.... or you might not know that you know. Don't Make Assumptions,  Say goodbye to sadness and drama "All the sadness and drama you have lived in your life was rooted in making assumptions and taking things personally.  The whole world of control between humans is based on that.
