Manage episode 480286765 series 3564263
In this heartfelt episode of ABWilson’s Heart of the Matter, host Aderonke Bademosi Wilson sits down with Corine LaFont, a seasoned communications specialist, consultant, and storyteller from Trinidad and Tobago. What unfolds is a powerful and deeply personal conversation about resilience, self-discovery, and the transformative power of embracing one’s truth.
Corine opens up with candid reflections on how being labeled as “a tool, convenient, and a child” influenced her sense of self and shaped her life experiences. These perceptions, though limiting, became a catalyst for deeper self-awareness and personal evolution.
The episode takes a brave turn as Corine shares the emotional story of leaving a toxic 27-year relationship. Her journey toward self-love and personal freedom is moving and empowering, offering listeners a raw glimpse into what it means to choose yourself, against the odds.
Healing, for Corine, has been a holistic and spiritual journey. She reveals how prayer, meditation, and moments of solitude have been central to her growth, helping her reconnect with her inner strength and purpose.
But Corine’s transformation doesn’t stop there. With authenticity and kindness at the core of her daily mission, she brings light to others through simple acts. Offering words of encouragement, sharing laughter, and spreading joy in everyday interactions.
Listeners will also be surprised to discover lesser-known facets of Corine’s personality: she’s an introvert who thrives in the world of communication, a passionate Latin dancer, and a creative spirit who finds joy in painting and drawing. These vibrant details paint a fuller picture of a woman deeply in tune with her passions.
Throughout the conversation, Corine emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries, honoring one’s self-worth, and practicing healthy detachment. These insights serve as gentle yet powerful reminders for anyone navigating relationships or seeking emotional clarity.
Guided by Aderonke's warm and intuitive interview style, Corine’s genuine spirit and wisdom shine through. The episode becomes more than just a conversation. It’s a beautiful reminder of what it means to heal, to believe in oneself, and to live with intention and authenticity.
Why listen? Because this episode is a celebration of strength and vulnerability. It’s for anyone ready to embrace their story, overcome life’s challenges, and rediscover joy in the everyday. Corine’s journey encourages us all to say “yes” to ourselves and to do it without apology.
