The Icons Show

Behind every extraordinary life is a story most people never hear.

Hosted by Jordan Lynae, The ICON Show goes beyond the highlight reel to uncover the defining moments, setbacks, breakthroughs, and identity shifts that shape remarkable people.

Each week, entrepreneurs, authors, speakers, founders, leaders, and visionaries share the lessons that changed them, the challenges that tested them, and the truths they learned along the way.

Because success isn’t built by what you do

It’s built by who you become

The story behind the success
The shift behind the breakthrough
The person behind the brand

When The Dream Cracked Open- Power In The Pressure Sep 18, 2025

Show notes

What if the very season meant to break you… actually revealed your greatest strength?

In today’s episode, I sit down with Iryna Sosnovska. A Ukrainian-born portrait photographer and business mentor who went from rock bottom to running a thriving, multi-six-figure portrait studio in the heart of New York City.

Originally from Kyiv, Iryna shares how she and her husband moved to the U.S. chasing creative dreams, only to face financial collapse, postpartum challenges, and complete identity loss. But through that fire, she rebuilt. As a new mother and first-time founder with no support, she found her voice, her vision, and her divine resilience.

We talk about:

• The breakdown that led to her breakthrough

• What it really takes to build a business when everything feels like it’s falling apart

• Trusting the divine timing (even when it doesn’t make sense)

• Redefining success as sovereignty, stability, and spiritual alignment
