Sonja Wasden
Sonja Wasden is a suicide survivor. She has managed the bipolar, OCD, and anxiety disorder for over 30 years. She has been interviewed on CBS This Morning and The Tamron Hall Show. Sonja’s award-winning memoir, An Impossible Life, is a lighthouse of hope. CBS This Morning Correspondent, Dr. Tara Narula said, “There are certain stories that touch you – for me, this was one of them. It is raw, honest, and a beautiful story of hope and love. These words left a mark on my heart, and this story is one of my most sacred and special I’ve ever done.” Sonja's mental health advocacy work includes doing mental health book clubs in women’s prisons across the country. Oprah Winfrey participated in one.
