Last time we spoke to Sonya Kay George, we unveiled her incredible journey from her roots in Guyana to her current role as Vice President of Sales, Global Strategic Accounts, and Innovation at Great Place to Work. In this episode, Sonya transcends her corporate role, sharing the remarkable bond with her son and introducing her heartwarming children's book, 'Aaron Kingsley's School Diaries.'

Within the book, young Aaron Kingsley embarks on his first day of first grade, navigating childhood challenges while exploring themes of kindness, friendship, and effective communication.

Sonya's upbringing in a traditional Caribbean household, marked by limited conversations, fueled her dedication to cultivating a strong connection with her son, Aaron Kingsley Adetola. Together, they've nurtured an open, respectful relationship, molding Aaron into a compassionate and intelligent young individual poised to embrace the world.

Their journey unfolds against the backdrop of Aaron's accomplishments as a stellar student, actor, and model, showcased in Disney's 'RISE', Focus Features ‘A Thousand and One and prominent brand campaigns. This episode spotlights their unique family dynamic and celebrates the potency of shared experiences.
