Her Interview
Ten minutes with Sona
01What do you attribute your success to?
My success comes first from my support system, the people that have been there for me my entire life. Next is my personal determination and grit. Losing my parents at a young age meant I knew I needed to succeed with no other option, to make them proud and to make myself proud. I want to look back and be proud of everything I've accomplished and know that I made this world a better place.
02What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
Going into entrepreneurship in fitness is going to be a grind, and that's okay because what you receive out of it is exponentially more. You put in long hours like 12 to 16 hour days, but what you get is a lifetime of pure joy, happiness, and fulfillment from helping others love themselves.
