What does it really mean to live by choice… not default?

In this episode of Becoming Lotus, I sit down with Matt Sochon—coach, mentor, founder of the Sochon Method, and someone who played a pivotal role in my own journey of pushing beyond what I thought I was capable of.

Just over a year ago, I stepped into Matt’s world in Dubai—completely outside of my comfort zone—and that experience became a catalyst for everything that followed. This conversation is a full-circle moment.

Together, we get into what it’s like living—“smack dab in the middle of a war zone”—and the perspective that comes with that reality.

We also explore what women often underestimate in themselves, and open up a powerful conversation around masculinity—challenging outdated stereotypes and redefining strength through vulnerability, authenticity, and personal responsibility.

Matt is someone who embodies edification—the act of uplifting, encouraging, and bringing out the best in others—and it’s something you’ll feel throughout this conversation.

This episode is an invitation to stop living by default… and start living with intention.

Because your life is happening now—
and you get to choose how you show up in it.

Until next time—keep rising, keep blooming, and keep soaking it all in.
