In this episode of Unapologetically Wild, I get real about the power of confronting fears and setting boundaries. I share my personal journey of growth, from overcoming deep-seated fears to stepping fully into my purpose. Leaving behind a long-standing military career wasn’t easy, but it was necessary to pursue my passion for empowering women full-time.

I talk about the fear that comes with major life changes and how to push through it, as well as the importance of setting boundaries to stay focused and achieve personal goals. I also dive into why surrounding yourself with the right people is key to growth and share my experience of stepping into uncomfortable spaces, like high-powered retreats, and what I learned along the way.

This episode is your reminder that fear is normal, but it shouldn’t hold you back. If you’re ready to chase your dreams unapologetically, this one’s for you!

About Kadi

Meet Kadi Sonntag, the unapologetically wild woman leading the charge on living life boldly and breaking free from the limits society tries to set. Born in Maitland in 1992 and raised in Newcastle, Kadi’s love for sports (anything but school!) started early.

From swimming at a national level to competing in high jump at nationals and playing representative basketball, Kadi was always moving, growing, and pushing herself. In high school, she was the sports and school captain, proving leadership comes naturally.

At 19, Kadi took a leap and joined the army, starting as an admin clerk and eventually becoming an army physical training instructor in 2019. She’s served on peacekeeping missions in the Middle East, taken part in exercises in Asia, and now holds the rank of sergeant. Talk about resilience!

When she’s not leading in the military, Kadi’s got her sidekick—her dog Piper—and she’s all about empowering women to tap into their inner strength, unleash their wildest selves, and live unapologetically. Whether she’s playing for the Defence National Basketball Team or sharing her journey on Unapologetically Wild, Kadi is here to help women break free, find their power, and live on their own terms.
