This episode, I wanted to keep things chill. After the emotional weight of When Good Girls Grieve, I needed a softer landing, so we're talking about everything from the highs of anticipating what September holds to my ongoing frustration with dating reality shows and how they treat Black women. I'm also sharing some gems from a recent convo with my sexologist mentor, reflecting on the threads of Genesis 3 we still see today, and unpacking my skepticism around Tyler Perry’s upcoming Ruth and Boaz film. Let’s talk representation, misused biblical “love stories,” and what it means to just be in the moment.

This week on Sorin’s Soapbox, we’re getting vulnerable about what happens when the “good girls” feel like God forgot them. You followed the rules. You waited. You prayed. But the husband, the career, the happily ever after? Still MIA. We’re diving into the grief behind doing everything “right,” why obedience isn’t a transaction, and how our heart posture, not our performance, aligns us with God’s will. Plus, what this all means through the lens of my journey as a Christian intimacy advocate and sexologist.

🎙️ Long Time Coming... is finally here! After a year and a half away, I’m sharing where I’ve been: from South Korea to a whole new state, and the wild ride in between. Through the highs, lows, and holy pauses, I’ve realized: I’m in the middle of a test, and God is reminding me, He is my Provider, and He sees me. 💛 #SorinsSoapbox #FaithJourney #LifeUpdate
