  • 185: Claiming the Mic: Sonali Fiske on Creative Leadership and Cultural Revolution
    Jun 30 2025

    In this powerful and unapologetic conversation, I sit down with Sonali Fiske—TEDx speaker, creative coach, former radio host, and fierce advocate for cultural equity and representation. We explore the intersection of creative expression, sacred rage, and self-mothering, and the courage it takes to tell the truth in a world built to silence it.

    Sonali shares her journey of moving from invisibility to global visibility, and why anger became the alchemical force that transformed her life and leadership. We also reflect on the behind-the-scenes process of crafting a TEDx talk that disrupts the status quo—and the backlash that often comes with saying something that matters.

    If you’ve ever felt like your story wasn’t welcome, this episode is a bold invitation to claim your space, your voice, and your sacred yes.

    You’ll also hear about:
    • (01:55) The origin of Sonali’s mission to amplify BIPOC women’s voices
    • (07:04) How sacred listening and self-mothering become acts of revolution
    • (13:30) Feelings buried alive: intergenerational grief and what Sonali did with her rage
    • (18:20) Why we need safe spaces for women to express full-spectrum emotions
    • (23:45) Her first TEDx talk, audience discomfort, and the power of not diluting your message
    • (30:10) How that talk led to her global radio show and 9.5M+ listeners
    • (35:40) The challenges of sustaining visibility, and knowing when to pause
    • (39:25) Producing the most diverse TEDx events in the U.S.
    • (44:50) The radical act of turning anger into creativity, service, and collective healing

    This episode is for anyone ready to stop shrinking, start telling the truth, and create from the places we’ve been told to hide.
