- Ep 102: Sonia Dong | What You Focus On Grows … From Crisis to Creating a Fashion Revolution!
While greaving the passing of Henkaa's CEO and dear who was also a dear friend, Sonia Dong was forced to find her footing as a leader while the pandemic hit full force. She is also an earth-loving mama of two girls. Sonia is now an author, co-owner, and managing director at Henkaa, creating a fashion revolution where one-time-use special occasion dresses and tops become a thing of the past, and where body-positive, size-inclusive clothing that journeys with women and girls through all seasons of life becomes the norm—rather than the exception. Henkaa donates 1% of proceeds to charities supporting girls and women to reach their fullest potential. What you focus on grows!
Key points in our conversation include:
💥 How Sonia Dong dealt with the tragic loss of her friend and business partner, Joanna, and the challenges of running the company solo
💥 The origin story of Henkaa, a clothing company that is size-inclusive and focuses on versatile, sustainable fashion
💥 How Sonia's experience with perfectionism and grief has led her to focus on self-compassion and living in the present moment for herself and her family
💥 The power of practicing gratitude and the impact it has on our children's emotional well-being.
