"We are not defined by the pain of the past, in fact, there is a way to embrace who we once were in order to step fully into who we are becoming." Get ready for a raw and vulnerable conversation where Sophia shares some of the shadows of her past and how each choice shaped her for who she is today. 
Meet our guest Sophia Esperanza, an animal rights activist, conscious creator and budding farmer.  She’s amassed an online presence through many mediums over the years. Transitioning from a career as a model; she’s shifted the focus of her life to reflect her heart and purpose. What’s come since that decision has been :
-The founding of an online plant-centric recipe space, called Elbows on the Table 
-The creation of Test of Time Vintage with her husband Petrice Jones 
-Diving into the world of biodynamic, regenerative and organic farming techniques 
-Sharing her journey through YouTube, to document her version of becoming an Earth Steward 
More than ever; she feels it necessary to challenge thought, perspective, societal / cultural norms - while safeguarding precious freedoms and sovereignty. She believes true freedom comes from reconnecting to our divine truth and being able to walk in our absolute authenticity. In love.

In this episode we delve deep into the transformative power of fasting and its impact on our body, mind, and spirit. Fasting isn't just about abstaining from food; it's a sacred ritual of self-love that unlocks our biological potential and fosters holistic health.

The episode emphasizes the importance of fasting for maintaining the integrity of our body, mind, and spirit. By creating a space of freedom within ourselves, fasting allows us to experience heightened sensations, clarity of thought, and a deeper connection with our inner selves.

During a fast of 12 to 24 hours, our body undergoes a remarkable transformation, leading to crystal clarity of mind and access to parts of ourselves that may otherwise remain dormant. This period of silence and abstention from food triggers the "off switch" in our nervous and digestive systems, facilitating autophagy and enabling us to drop fully into a state of mindfulness.

The benefits of fasting extend beyond physical health; they encompass mental clarity, a healthier gut microbiome, enhanced cognitive abilities, reduced pressure on the central nervous system, and support for detoxification pathways. Moreover, fasting activates the glymphatic system, which acts as the brain's garbage disposal, further enhancing cognitive function and overall well-being.

Ultimately, fasting is presented as a powerful tool for optimizing health and unlocking our full potential, both physically and spiritually. Embracing fasting as a ritual of self-love allows us to experience transformations and reach new levels of wellness.
