CANVASREBEL Stories & Insights article entitled Meet Sonia Iris Lozada. We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Sonia Iris Lozada a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
“I decided to follow my heart, even though it seemed like a strange decision since I have bills to pay and food to put on the table. I went through a stretch of time during which I lost sight of the joy found in acting and writing. At that point, I viewed my career with a seriousness born out of the need to make money. Yet, I haven’t made my living from this yet. What I discovered, however, is that I don’t have to stop being an actor, writer or poet; these things are true passions for me, and when I stopped trying so hard to make money from them, suddenly the joy reappeared and I started booking projects again. There are miracles everywhere if we just look for them.”
Quote: “Sometimes I feel like a cocoon of chains wrapped around my soul. The cocoon of perceptions and beliefs.”
