  • Awakening to discover that when you take action on a coincidence it can lead to a miracle
    Mar 31 2026

    Sophia DEMAS did not want to get married, have children, or write a book. The Universe, however, had other plans. And now she has written two books. In The Divine Language of Coincidence, Sophia chronicles the miracles she has experienced since the age of 19. After discovering the key in turning a coincidence into a potential miracle, she was propelled to share with the world how miracles are accessible to anyone. Her experiences related to death and after-death communication (ADC) are included in her second book, Consciousness Beyond Death, recently released. Sophia’s message is that since extraordinary things happened to her, an ordinary woman, then these events are accessible to everyone, it's just a matter of being aware and paying attention. She also created Living a Fearless Life, a twelve-workshop program designed to increase self-esteem in at-risk women.
