In this moving spoken-word performance, Sophia uses the powerful metaphor of pregnancy to explore the hidden burdens and beautiful possibilities we all carry within us. With profound empathy, she contrasts the visible joy of her own pregnancy with the unspoken pain of women who carry a "bump growing on lies" or a future born from violation. The performance then widens its lens, revealing that we are all "pregnant" with visions, voices, and versions of ourselves waiting to be born. This is a call to action for anyone holding back—a plea to push through fear and doubt to bring our silent songs, unheard words, and boundless dreams into the world. It is a powerful reminder that our stories, whether born from joy or pain, are meant to be shared, and that beneath the surface, there is always more to us than meets the eye.
