In this first installment of “Daring Wisely” on S.A.B.R.E.E.: A Podcast with Dr. Sonji Fatima, Dr. Harold invites listeners into a heartfelt conversation about what it really means to be courageous with wisdom, not just boldness. She reflects on seasons of her own life where saying “yes” too quickly or staying in misaligned spaces cost her peace, purpose, and sometimes her well-being, and how learning to pause, pray, and discern has reshaped the way she now steps into opportunity. In Part 1, she explores the difference between reckless risk and sacred, intentional courage; how trauma can make us either over-cautious or over-accommodating; and why setting boundaries is one of the most powerful forms of wisdom in action. Through story, reflection, and gentle truth-telling, Dr. Harold encourages listeners to ask: Where am I being called to move forward boldly, and where am I being called to wait, rethink, or release? This episode lays the foundation for a new way of living: daring, but not desperate; hopeful, but no longer ignoring red flags; willing to leap, but only in alignment with God, purpose, and wholeness.

WHAT WE KEEP WHEN WE GIVE explores the quiet alchemy of service. How lifting others steadies our own hearts and clarifies purpose. Through stories from mentoring rooms and community circles, the episode shows that generosity is reciprocal: trust comes before tasks, listening before solutions, and co-regulation before instruction. It honors that some lessons are painful, and insists the wiser move is to learn them the first time. Practical moments ground the theme: name a specific need, ask what support would feel like, take one concrete action within 24 hours, and close the loop with “Did this help? What’s next?” Because hope is strongest when it is scheduled and specific. In the end, giving does not deplete; it compounds, into emotional intelligence, belonging, resilience, and legacy. What remains with us is not what we spent, but who we became by showing up.

Defining the Unstoppable Spirit offers a heartfelt blueprint for rising after adversity. Dr. Sonji Fatima shares her journey from Newark to founding S.A.B.R.E.E. Enrichment Academy in honor of her bereaved son, Sabree Marquis Daniel, and his stepmother, Mrs. Renay Daniel, transforming grief into a movement that uplifts historically disadvantaged and/or marginalized youth, as well as survivors of domestic violence. She reframes “unstoppable” not as perfection but as perseverance shaped by purpose, vision, faith, grit, and courage. Listeners will hear how pain became power, why vision must outlast setbacks, and how daily choices compound into legacy. The episode closes with a simple micro-practice, name your purpose, write one “I see…” vision line, and choose a 24-hour action, so the message becomes motion. Proceeds from Dr. Sonji’s memoir directly support the 501(c)(3) mission.

The words we speak shape the reality we experience. Self-affirmations, when practiced intentionally, have the power to rewire our subconscious beliefs, boost confidence, and set the foundation for personal growth. By repeatedly reinforcing positive statements about ourselves, we challenge limiting thoughts and replace them with empowering truths. Whether spoken aloud, written, or visualized, affirmations create a mental framework that nurtures resilience, self-worth, and the motivation to pursue our goals. When we actively engage in self-affirmation, we are not simply reciting words—we are programming our minds to believe in the best version of ourselves.

Self-affirmation interventions in health contexts are powerful tools that help individuals reinforce their sense of self-worth and reduce defensiveness when confronted with health-related challenges or information. These interventions encourage individuals to focus on their core values, strengths, or meaningful aspects of their identity, fostering a positive mindset that promotes openness to health messaging and behavior change. For example, when individuals engage in self-affirmation exercises, such as reflecting on personal achievements or relationships, they are better equipped to process potentially threatening health information without perceiving it as a personal attack. This can lead to greater acceptance of preventive measures, healthier lifestyle choices, and adherence to medical advice. Self-affirmation also reduces stress and anxiety, which are often barriers to effective decision-making in health contexts. By creating a sense of stability and intrinsic motivation, these interventions support individuals in making choices that align with their long-term well-being, ultimately enhancing both mental and physical health outcomes.

Indirect approaches to threat involve strategies that mitigate the negative impact of perceived danger without directly confronting it, allowing individuals to manage stress and maintain functionality. These approaches often focus on altering the environment, shifting perspectives, or reinforcing coping mechanisms to reduce the intensity of the threat. For example, fostering a sense of safety and support in the environment can diminish the perceived severity of a threat, while reframing challenges as opportunities for growth can help individuals maintain a positive outlook. Building resilience through proactive practices like mindfulness, stress management, and emotional regulation equips individuals to handle threats more effectively when they arise.

Change is inevitable, but lasting success requires more than a fleeting shift—it demands intentional transformation. Many people experience moments of motivation that spark change, but without the right mindset and strategies, those changes often fade. The key to mastering the art of lasting change lies in developing habits that align with your vision, reinforcing them with consistency, and embracing adaptability. True transformation is not just about making a single decision; it is about committing to a continuous process of growth, learning, and self-improvement. By shifting from a temporary fix to a long-term mindset, success becomes a natural outcome rather than a distant goal.
