4 Ingredients for Everyday Magic
Inspired by the Grit and Grace of the South, the Origin of Jazz, and the Glamour of Hollywood’s Golden Age, SOSI South is a destination transformation - an event for the ages. Step into your Golden Age.
What if you were just about to enter a Golden Age in your life?
I believe the best is yet to come.
Inspired by the Golden Age of Hollywood…
Magic was everywhere. Glamor. Transformation. Innovation.
The rise of jazz. Celebration. Life was lived in technicolor.
At SOSI South, we’re exploring the four ingredients of everyday magic - the
qualities of creating your very own Golden Age.
But first, let’s look at what stops the magic.
1) Boredom, Repetition, and Monotony
Life isn’t meant to be an endless swirl of to-do’s.
If you feel bored and crave a new experience of life,
SOSI South will bring back the wonder.
2) Lack of Creativity & Self-Expression
When you’re not truly expressing yourself,
your desires, your ideas, your soul - you’ll feel life is like a dull shade of grey.
Figuring out how to tap in and turn up the volume
on embodying who you are as a woman makes life exciting.
SOSI South will show you how.
3) Ordinary, Everyday Life
Extraordinary women make the ordinary exciting. They know the magic unfolds
when you bring glamour and style to the little moments, the subtleties of life. SOSI
South will give you the ability to make life sparkle.
4) Chaos and Disorder
We love spontaneity and surprise but sometimes, life knocks you down. There’s no stability,
so when emotional impact strikes, it can make you hardened and cold.
SOSI South is a renaissance back to the part of you who is both resilient
and rejuvenated. SOSI South will help you reconnect to the grit and
grace you need to overcome and thrive.

Tonya Leigh
Master Self-Image Coach and Founder of the School of Self-Image
Hi there! I’m Tonya Leigh. When I was walking the halls of my hospital as a critical care nurse, 75 pounds overweight, and buried in feelings of self-doubt, life felt so dull.
I enjoyed my job but it didn’t feel like the right fit. Life felt as if it were going nowhere. Someone asked me, “Tonya, who do you want to be?” And I started rattling off the old boilerplate -
A good mom
A good wife
A good nurse
He said, “Tonya, those are the roles you play for OTHERS. Who do YOU want to be as a woman?” This one question sparked my hero’s journey, and along the way, I discovered the power of self-image.
Some women, even those who know about self-image work, find they still tend to get caught in that everyday grind. Life feels like a chore.
They’re missing delight.
They’re missing fascination.
They’re missing glamour.
This is the inspiration for our 2.5 day luxury retreat happening on November 2 - 4 in New Orleans, LA. SOSI SOUTH is more than an event; it's a reawakening.
A chance to recalibrate, to find the extraordinary in your every day, and most importantly, to fall in love with the magic of life all over again.
It's not just about celebrating big wins or outfit choices; it's a deep dive into the soul of a life well-lived.
From celebrating with your best china on a quiet little Sunday afternoon to embracing every curve and edge of your reflection, this is about rediscovering ourselves and seeing our world in a whole new way - a magical way.
This is my promise to you: by the end, you won’t just walk; you’ll strut with a renewed spirit and vision.
Are you ready to rise above the mundane and rediscover the enchantment of daily life?
Join us, and let's make every day a masterpiece.
And, I want to share with you everything I can, in our almost three days together, about how you can live your charmed life.
SOSI South is where I’m peeling back the curtains and sharing everything from how you create daily magic to how to hold the energy of a room.
This will be the most delightful event you’ve ever attended.
SOSI SOUTH: Your Charmed Life.

EXTRAORDINARY IS
IN THE MAKING…
here’s our daily
itinerary
thursday
Gather with your fellow SOSI sisters under the Southern sky for a captivating soirée.
We start the weekend together with an opening ceremony and a dreamy cocktail party, clinking our champagne glasses with toasts of what’s to come.
The School of Self-Image believes in the power of celebration. It’s time to pull out that special dress or pantsuit that’s been tucked in the back of your closet and show up for the party of your life.
FRIDAY
After a leisurely morning, step into the ballroom. It’s been transformed to take you to another time - a Golden Age. This day will be a mix of transformation, interaction, exploration, and powerful decision-making.
We’ll be covering two main themes on Friday.
We will be diving deep into:
Marvels & Mischief
Infusing Life with Novelty, Inspiration, and Possibility
In the heart of New Orleans, tradition meets trailblazing.
It's where the echoes of jazz-filled streets merge with the whispers of women who've dared to build a life on their own terms. Inspiration waits around every corner.
To live a charmed life, you must immerse yourself in possibilities, allowing every unexpected moment to inspire and reshape your path.
As we delve into the magic that’s within you, we challenge you:
How are you intentionally seeking inspiration? Are you ready to embrace a little mischief, break the rules, and become a marvel in your own right?
And…
Self-Expression & Soul
Using Creativity to Reinvent and Redefine Your Self-Image
Jazz isn't just about music; it's a revolution of self-expression and fierce individualism.
It’s about taking the stage of life and owning your unique sound. Just as a Jazz musician pours their soul into every note, channeling their experiences and stories, it's time for you to tap into your own well of creativity to reinvent and redefine yourself.
By elevating your self-image, you’re changing how you see yourself and how you interact with the world, and life will never be the same. Watch out world!
(In the evening, VIPs will be whisked away to a private dinner.)
SATURDAY
Spend the morning with your new friends, sharing your charming awakenings over coffee. Then gather in the grand ballroom for a second day of charm secrets.
A charmed life is never hurried. There is always space to relax and dream. Spend the morning strolling around Bourbon Street or hanging with friends in the lounge.
After your leisurely morning, gather in the grand ballroom for more charming lectures.
Glamour & Style
Making the Ordinary Glamorous with Improvisation
In a world where Jazz constantly evolves, embracing swing, bebop, cool jazz, and more - we can see here it’s not just about following a set tune but about improvising as you evolve.
Similarly, in our lives, there's a certain magic in taking what might seem like an ordinary moment and making it extraordinary.
Whether it's choosing a bold lip color on a gloomy day or using your best china for an ordinary meal, it's about finding those pockets of beauty and style in every situation.
Remember, just like in Jazz, the unexpected notes often create the most memorable melodies.
So why not sprinkle a bit of that improvisation into your daily life? You'd be amazed at the transformation.
And…
Rhythm & Blues
Building Resilience to Create Your Extraordinary Life
The deep soul of Jazz finds its roots in blues - a song of resilience, born from sorrow and pain.
And those Blues artists? They took their pain and turned it into something profoundly beautiful.
Imagine if we approached our challenges with that same spirit – using resilience to craft something extraordinary out of every bump in the road.
Life will have its ups and downs, but it’s riding those waves, staying open to the magic of everyday moments, that genuinely crafts an extraordinary life.
Ready to learn to dance through the storms and let every experience amplify your life's magic?
THE MASQUERADE GALA
We will end the event with a celebration Masquerade Gala, inviting you to wear something elegantly representative of your charmed life–and, of course, a beautiful mask.
You will be walking into our eccentric spectacle with a lightness in your step because you have discovered a simple truth: Life is your playground, and you know how to make it absolutely magical.
Let’s welcome your Golden Age in style.
SUNDAY (VIP DAY)
VIP guests will join me for a morning coffee, mimosas, and a connected chat before being whisked away for a unique New Orleans experience.
You will have an opportunity to ask your burning questions, get coached, and savor life-changing conversations with your fellow VIP guests.
I’M READY FOR MY GOLDEN AGE!

Charm starts with your attitude.
You’ll stop resisting and fighting with life, and understand how to create magic instead.
You’ll style your mind with powerful and luxurious thoughts that drive you to show up confidently and boldly.
And, you’ll take the first step into the next version of you.
New Orleans is the wonderland of the South. Famous for Mardi Gras, its live jazz scene, and deep French and Spanish roots, there’s no better place for a charming getaway.
SOSI SOUTH will be held at a luxurious hotel within walking distance of the French Quarter.
With a glamorous rooftop pool scene, a refreshing spa, and luxurious room service, there is plenty of room to lounge, dream, and make big plans for your future.
Our venue is the epitome of old world Southern Charm. Frank Sinatra, Elvis, and Judy Garland have performed in its halls.
It’s steps from the French Quarter, the beautiful Orpheum Theater, and the Mardi Gras Museum of Costumes and Culture.
This is the perfect backdrop to your charming renaissance.
SOSI SOUTH isn’t a vacation (it’s even better).
It isn’t a cookie cutter experience with a lotta fluff and not a lot of substance.
It definitely isn’t a boring conference with fluorescent lighting and stale coffee.
And, it most certainly isn’t being held in a boring place.
SOSI SOUTH is an invitation to come fully alive and become fully self-expressed.
It’s a celebration of womanhood, beauty and charm.
A place to make deep connections with others, but most importantly, with yourself.
It’s the most charming event around that will leave you with lifelong memories and a clear vision of your most charmed life.
