On the Spectrum with Sonia

Send us a text

After grappling with the realities of bipolar disorder, Sarah I Fox invites us into her world, sharing her transformative journey through mental health challenges. Growing up in Brooklyn and identifying as a woman of color, Sarah discusses the intersectionality between mental health, being a person of color, and the role of her faith.
Even though bipolar disorder turned an ugly head towards Sarah, Sarah never in turn chose to turn an ugly head back. Instead, Sarah used having bipolar disorder as a way to dig deeper into her faith, become more connected with her faith and others whom she considers near and dear, and use bipolar disorder as the driving force behind her fierce passion to help others.
Sarah is the host of Rough Edges Podcast where her passion to reach others who are struggling, especially those struggling in silence, just radiates. After speaking with Sarah, she will leave you filled with hope, empowerment, and inspiration to carry forth on your own journey; whatever it may be.
