NEW GUIDE: Pitfalls to Avoid if Your Empty Nest Feels Lonely

"I hope when you come home to yourself...there are flowers lining the front porch...that were left from all the women you were before"

Welcome to Rediscover Myself

Understanding Your Journey

At Rediscover Myself, we recognize the profound shift that occurs when your primary roles evolve. The question arises: “Who am I now?”

The Cost of Neglecting Yourself

Ignoring this pivotal moment can lead to prolonged feelings of emptiness and disconnection. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

A Shared Experience

Consider Maria’s story: After her children moved out, she felt a void. Through our resources, she tapped into her long-forgotten love for writing and now authors a popular blog.

Embracing a New Chapter

Your next chapter is waiting to be written. By focusing on self-awareness and personal growth, you can uncover passions and purposes that bring fulfillment.

Hello, I'm Sonia!

I started this site because I thought there must be a ton of other women like me…over 55, and struggling to identify myself as more than a mom, wife, or daughter.

I sacrificed for my family - I have NO regrets, in fact, I would do it all again.

But now, who am I?

I genuinely couldn't remember what did I want to be when I grew up?

What were/are my passions?

What makes me happy?

So...my journey began...

to begin, or continue, on your own journey to identify

yourSELF!

Empowered Grace is the voice of our awakening and becoming...

...gentle yet powerful, rooted in truth, and rising with every woman who dares to rediscover herself beyond the roles she’s outgrown.

I would like to help you with falling in love with yourself again, or do so for the first time.

I am really good at finding answers to questions I have about almost anything. I kind of go down rabbit holes to get the answers, but then I am able to share sometimes complex solutions in easy to understand ways.

My friends, family, coworkers, & others, come to me for answers on a cross spectrum of things because everyone seems to know I will find answers.

  • I was born & raised in an urban North East city, moved & have lived over 30 years in Virginia.

  • My neighbors for the last few years include cows, horses, goats, chickens, & alpacas.

  • I love sleeping in as late as possible, which usually means I unintentionally wake up on my own at 6am.

  • I keep failing at intermittent fasting because I love my morning cup of coffee & my evening glass of Cabernet Sauvignon.

  • I’m really struggling with my gray thinning hair - I’m working from home so I don’t have to dye it now.

  • When I was really feeling sad at one point in my life, we adopted 2 tuxedo kittens, Simba & Nala. Simba claimed me right away. He has been my muse and showed me undeniable love right when I needed it the most. Nala claimed my husband as her own.

  • I really like reading romance novels where the heroines are my age, smart, perfectly imperfect, and loved.

  • My husband & kids (who are now adults) are my world and I’ll do anything for them.

  • I am proud of my going back to school for my degree in my late 40’s and earning my graduate degree in my early 50’s – all while working full time and raising my family.

  • I watch HGTV and DIY channels as a hobby.

  • Although I spent more than 30 years professionally as a CT & MRI tech, I am a horrible photographer – blurry, too dark, or finger in the corner of the image anyone?
