Life This Year

Sonia Iris Lozada prayer handsLife this year has been challenging.  So much has happened and this is why I have been late in writing any blogs.

I’m just going to go down the list of what I’ve been doing. Some of it is great and other ones are sad.

Overheard at Chica’s Café was great.

My January episode featured Denise Sanchez who I had the honor of working with on Bosch Legacy. It’s a fun episode. Check it out here

Since things have been challenging (I’ll let you know why below), I forgot to get a guest for the podcast and decided to go through my resume and discuss my experiences on some of the film/TV sets. Check it out here

My March episode will feature Norma Maldonado, a fellow actor.

Chica and the Man

Alex and I are up to our usual antics where we start with one ideal and then we go all over the place. This is what happens when you get two creatives together and one thing leads to another. Listen to our scattered and funny conversations.

Poetic Resurrection

William Mackenzie-Smith an alchemist when it comes to CBD, CBDA and THC for healing purposes. He’s worked with various illness, cancer patients and pets.  Listen to episode.

Barbara Ann Briggs – A poet/writer and meditation teacher. We talk about her journey from being a dancer to writing and getting published. How meditation helped her create meaningful content.   Listen to episode.

Rachel Hanfling – an Emmy nominated producer, motivational speaker and media coach. We cover being nervous at giving speeches.   Listen to episode.

Now for my sad news. One January 3rd, 2023 my mom passed away. Even though we knew it was a matter of time, it was still an extremely difficult time. I find myself being forgetful, needing to write everything down and sometimes just not caring. I did two episodes on the Poetic Resurrection podcast, I read some of my poetry and discuss how I felt. If you have had grief for the lost of a loved one, a career, a pet it would be a relief to listen to these episodes. They include self-help tips in dealing with grief. One episode is entitled: In Loving Memory of Martina Aviles and the other is Life-A Poem & Prayer for the Grieving.   Listen to episodes.

One of the poems I read for the World Poetry Day episode which is every March 21st is Forget. Check it out here.
