By the way, getting them off my space for a couple of days can be so refreshing. But by the time the holidays are over and schools are back, I’m left feeling like I need a recharge, an escape to nature and relative quiet.

Dan Sonko

The Rise of the Phoenix Dan is living on his own terms

Coming off a dramatic year, Dan Sonko opens up about the pressures of performing, parenting, leadership and what it feels like to be an actor, and the simple things that make him happy (Hint: not Instagram). Dan shares his experiences with Hannah Adari on how has taken an upward trajectory of hope, family and opportunities.
