Working full time in a windowless room cut Sonja off from the natural world around her; but spending time in wild places has helped her to discover herself since a shock diagnosis two years ago. Volunteering for the Wildlife Trust led to a career change, and Sonja now works to inspire others to get outdoors and on the water to find her wild life.
Wild places can inspire us to explore our world and learn more about it.
