Interview by: Gwennet (Gwen) Henry
Sonnet Ford-Grant is a force to be reckoned with. She is not easily defined by a single title or role. As an entrepreneur, recording artist, best-selling author, international speaker, preacher, fitness ambassador, and even a rebel, Sonnet encompasses a multitude of identities and titles. However, during our meeting at a local restaurant in Atlanta, Ga., she said if she had to pick one title, it would be "Coach" because it summarizes everything she does.
Coach Sonnet exuded confidence and style as she arrived in a fitted black dress, adorned with stunning jewelry and stylish stilettos. Her beautiful smile radiated warmth and openness, as she effortlessly connected with those around her, offering words of encouragement when needed. As we sat in our booth, a passerby in the drive-through window couldn't help but admire Sonnet's icy blonde bob hairstyle. The patron enthusiastically gestured their approval, to which Sonnet responded with genuine happiness and a friendly demeanor. At first glance, one may not expect her to be a bible-toting, fire-breathing gospel preacher, but she defies expectations. Coach Sonnet is an Apostle and Kingdom Ambassador who has broken free from religious tradition and lives outside the confines of a box.
Gwennet (Gwen) Henry is a published author and senior pastor of Trees of Righteousness Christian Fellowship in Hampton, GA.
