Passion

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I’ve been thinking this lovely day is more than just about “romantic love”. I believe it’s also about passion. I live every day of my life lit by its fire: I’m passionate about the people in my life, and the work I do every day. This is how life should be! Every morning I wake up ready to take on the world because my passion for work, life and love is the ultimate drive.

What I’m Passionate About

Family

Every mother knows about unconditional love, and I’ve been blessed to know it three times now. My three beautiful children Alexa, Lennox, and Eva have brought so much joy to my life, and every day with them is a new adventure! And of course there’s also my wonderful husband and “partner in crime” Eddy. We’ve been married for almost 15 years, and I am so lucky we found each other all those years ago.

My family and the way we support and love each other is a huge source of passion for me. They keep me grounded, keep me laughing, and make every day brighter!

Career

I’m incredibly passionate about my career as a Professional REALTOR®. I view my business from an entrepreneurial perspective, and take it very seriously: it’s my business! There are no “9 to 5, Monday to Friday” rules in my world: I’m available 24/7, and I take time every day to ensure my clients are take care of.

Every day, I become more and more passionate about my career and my business, and this drives me to become an even better REALTOR®. I know the benefits of investing – both professionally and personally – and I’ve seen what a difference I can make in my client’s lives. There’s no better reward than helping a client achieve a lifelong dream of home ownership.

Relationships

Creating and sustaining relationships with friends, family, and clients is hugely important to me. To be strong, relationships need to be tended and supported: you can’t ignore them for months or years then pop back in and expect them to have lasted.

This is true when it comes to both friendships and client relationships. My goal is to become your partner in real estate, someone you trust to help you through some of the most important financial decisions you will make throughout your life, and someone you’ll want to come back to across your entire real estate “lifetime”.

Hobbies

There are many things I love to fill my life with in addition to family, an amazing career, and strong relationships. I have a soft spot for the arts, including reading and music of all kinds, and I love to travel.

In the last few years I’ve discovered hot yoga and this is fast becoming a new passion of mine. Spiritually it’s very relaxing, and yet physically it can be hard work! When I’m practicing yoga I’m hyper-focused on the present and the physical demands the stances and movements place on my body, and the experience is extremely meditative. In a busy life with three kids and my own business to run, it’s so valuable to set aside this “me” time every week where I can recharge both physically and mentally.

Sonia is passionate about tigers

Tigers!

Anyone who’s met me knows I love my tiger and leopard print! It’s not just the clothes I love: my wardrobe is inspired by those beautiful, endangered big cats, and I’ve become a passionate advocate for their survival. To learn more, read my recent blog post about the endangered Tiger and what you can do to help.

Those are my passions, the people and things that are central to my life. The passions that make me who I am.
