The Most Powerful Question A Woman Can Ask Herself: “What Do I Want?” | Sofi (The Oddity)

What happens when you stop living according to everyone else’s expectations and start making decisions based on what you truly want? In this episode of For Mannerless Women, Adelle sits down with digital creator, storyteller and podcaster Sofi (The Odditty) for a deeply honest conversation about reclaiming ownership over every part of your life.
