Season 2, Episode 11: Superwoman Isn't Human But We Are, That's Why We Need Community

That Social Work Lady

This week I welcome Realtor Sonseeahray (Sonni) Harvin into the studio.
Sonni was born and raised on Detroit's west side. She is an alumna of both Renaissance High and Emory University where she received both her undergraduate and graduate degree. Currently, Sonni lives with her three children (2 in college and 1 in middle school) in Oakland County, MI.
In this candid conversation, Sonni shares that after her multiple sclerosis diagnosis in 2010, she began to see the necessity of community. After living most of her young adult years in survival mold focused on rearing her children and finding her occupational footing, Sonni learned through her diagnosis that without having a community to hold her up, she was not going to be able to maintain the life she had worked so hard to build for her family.
So...setting aside the myth of Superwoman, Sonni rolled up her sleeves, committing herself to structuring her life so that her health and the care of her children became center. From that basis she then restructured her view of what community should be.
