    EP 291: Peace, Power, Purpose, Persistence with Award-Winning Screenwriter, Director, and Literary Author Ronika Merl

    In this episode, Ronika Merl shares her personal life journey, overcoming sex trafficking to becoming an award-winning screenwriter, director, and literary author. What did she have to do to become who she is today? Below are some take-away-quotes from the episode: " Do I have peace? Where can I find it?" " Do I have purpose? Where can I find it?" "Do I have power? Where can I find it?" "Do I have persistence? Where can I find it?" "Be careful with what you want, because you will get it." "Take inaction when things speed up." "Every action and inaction has an outcome." "It is our life lesson to create our gentleness." "Don't chase, let things come to you." "What do you need to change to get to that place?" "I didn't make the decision, the decision made me." BIO Born into an indigenous nomadic tribe in a remote mountain village in India, Ronika's early life was deeply rooted in the music, traditions, and storytelling of the Gaddi people. Her journey took a dramatic turn when she moved to Austria, where she faced numerous personal challenges and periods of displacement, including human trafficking and sexwork. These formative experiences profoundly influenced her creative voice and inspired her to explore powerful themes of trauma, identity, and resilience in her writing. Eventually settling in Ireland, Ronika drew from her multicultural experiences to shape a unique perspective that defines much of her work today. Her screenwriting career gained international attention when she placed highly in both the prestigious Academy Nicholl Fellowship and the Austin Film Festival in 2019. These accolades opened doors within the film industry and established her as a rising talent in screenwriting circles. Ronika has written over 22 feature-length scripts, with standout projects including Baabul, a deeply personal and culturally rich narrative; The House with the Blue Windows, which blends emotional depth with visual storytelling; and Blackbird, a powerful drama that has already been optioned for production. Her directorial debut, The Closing, is currently in preproduction and is being developed with support from Oscar-winning producer Pearce Cullen. ronikamerl.com www.instagram.com/ronika.merl Bluesky: ronikamerl #ALittleLessFearPodcast #PersonalGrowth #HealingJourney #MindsetPodcast  #SpiritualAwakening #TraumaHealing #QuantumHealing #ConsciousLiving  #EmotionalResilience #SelfTransformation This is Dr. Lino Martinez the host for A Little Less Fear Podcast.
