And I was myself, tears and all, all the way.
And I’m proud of not changing that.
I stood my ground and believed in who I was."
SOPHIA PASQUIS:It was hard.
Inside I’m on fire but mentally I’m good.
This is not bad.
We can handle this.
It’s just f—ing strange that I’m in this position in life now.
It felt like I was in high school, it was weird.
What exactly happened to sour your friendship with Ayanna so quickly?
There were two moments during that time where she was upset with me over something small.
Everybody’s sensitivities are different.
And this time, it was having this braid in my hair.
And I did all this work to uncover the things where I was getting in my own way.
And a lot had to do with like childhood conditioning and traumas.
It didn’t really hold true for me.
So when the thing with Ayanna happened, it just triggered a lot of things.
So when she turned on me and that happened, I just had it.
I kind of purged.
I kind of just released it.
And actually, I feel f—ing great right now.
I’m glad I got to do it.
Don’t take it personal."
Did you two try and talk things out after it blew up?
That was kind of the end of it.
We didn’t speak at the house, during the elimination.
I’m a collegiate athlete.
She was a factor in it; she wasn’t the lead to it.
She was just the catalyst that got me to where I am.
And look at me now.
I feel positive about who I am.
I think I was taken out of the game too early.
I know I would have made it to the end.
It’s one of those things I’ll never know.
But yeah, we haven’t spoken about it.
I’m sure she has her point of view of what went down and I have mine.
To be vulnerable is to be tough and brave.
It’s so easy to be backstabbing but it’s so much harder to be honorable.
What was your reaction when she immediately called you out to go into the elimination in her place?
I couldn’t believe it, man.
[Laughs] I really couldn’t.
I’ve never been turned on like that before.
You’re just showing everybody who you are, and that’s on you.
That’s not me.
It totally shocked me.
But I chalk it up to the game.
You know, people do crazy things when money is on the line.
Money comes and goes but integrity follows you and that was more important to me.
And I’ll get another shot at that money for sure.
I promise I’ll come back!
But yeah, it really upset me.
But then to counter that with your actions?
That’s heartbreaking to people who actually believed you and saw what you did.
How’s your relationship with Ayanna now?
But as far as on my end, I’m good.
I’ve made peace with it.
If she wants to talk about it, I’m open to it.
But as of right now, I’m okay.
I feel good about what I did.
There was a moment when I was processing and thinking about it and I had a lot of anger.
She hasn’t reached out to me.
I have nothing really to say to her.
And listen, I was not mad about what she did.
But I didn’t respect and appreciatehowshe did it.
I thought it was foul and it was cold and it wasn’t cool.
It was foul, man, and I don’t respect foul.
I could respect the game but I can respect foul and that’s a foul way of playing.
I’m not going to lie, you got me!
[Laughs] I’m not going to act like I didn’t get got.
But you only get me once.
Now that I’m awake, it only takes me once to learn a lesson.
Understood, message received.
Do you regret saying any of that since she ended up beating you?
I knew Jonna was a strong competitor.
But as far as facts go, Jodi, on paper, wasthecompetitor.
There’s only two ways it can end.
But if I lose, I almost beat the top dog, dude.
And I’ve never been in this environment.
MyChallengewas all like braiding hair and Kumbaya.
[My mistake] was I didn’t strive for the kill.
I didn’t go for the kill shot.
I would have won but I beat myself before going in there because I was exhausted.
That would be my one regret.
And I’m never letting that happen again.
I was my own undoing.
I was so honored to go against Jodi.
But imagine what I could have done it if I stayed.
Man, the madness and the havoc I’d wreak.
[Laughs] Trust me.
And when I have the comeback story, you’re going to see a whole new Sophia.
Trust me, I will deliver.
I’m a woman of my word.
This experience was great.
I emerged from it as So-Fire.
I left Sophia and I came back So-Fire and I’m ready to put s— on fire.
I’m going to set this world ablaze, I’m ready.
