​                         Sonja Reneé is a dynamic Speaker and Author dedicated to helping others transform their lives from the inside out. She sheds light on abandonment trauma—how these hidden wounds silently keep us attached to toxic people, unhealthy relationships, and harmful environments. Through her work, Sonja has discovered that nearly 90–95% of the people she encounters are living with unhealed abandonment wounds without even realizing it. These wounds deeply affect relationships with partners, children, coworkers, siblings, and spouses.
                          At 49 years old, Sonja discovered that she was adopted—an unexpected revelation that sent her on a powerful journey of truth, healing, and self-discovery. As she began unpacking her past and examining her relationships, both old and new, she realized how deeply abandonment trauma had shaped her life. That breakthrough empowered her to begin the healing process, reclaim her power, and rebuild her sense of identity and worth.
                          Now, Sonja speaks to audiences to raise awareness, share her journey, and teach others how to identify these wounds, confront them, and heal. In her book, “Abandonment Is Not Your Fault,” she courageously shares her personal experiences, the painful patterns she recognized, and the powerful process she used to break free from bondage, false narratives, unhealthy attachments, powerlessness, and generational trauma. 
                         In her new book, "Keys to Freedom," Sonja breaks down the specific emotional wounds that attract one another and the character traits that bind them together. She explains how trauma attracts trauma—meaning the unhealed wound in one person often forms an unhealthy attachment to the wounds in someone else. These connections may feel familiar or comforting at first, but ultimately they feed off each other in ways that can become harmful, dangerous, and emotionally destructive.
 
                    Her book is bold, transparent, emotionally raw, and deeply transformative. Sonja took her life back—and now she is on a mission to help others do the same.
