Meet YkB performer Sonal Agarwal Kanodia

Sonal is a woman of many passions, always chasing the next outlet that feeds her soul. Whether she’s closing a real estate deal, styling an intimate gathering into something breathtaking, or crafting verses that move the heart, she brings the same energy and intention to everything she does.

What YKB means to her:

She attended YKB for many years not only as an audience but as an Ahaana volunteer as well. She found something rare, a judgement free space where men and women share their most personal stories with openness and courage. She believes the stories we carry especially the ones that weigh us down or lift us up are meant to be shared and that sharing leads to liberation.
Stories break chains, lift others and remind that we are not alone in our experiences.

Join us to listen to Sonal’s story - April 3-5
