Art has many forms—some paint on canvas, some write melodies, and others weave their legacy through the rhythm of hooves on sacred ground. Few, however, master them all. Sofia Ezziati is one of those rare visionaries who lives between the notes, the pages, and the saddle, crafting a world where storytelling, music, and equestrian grace collide into something truly transcendent.
A songwriter and performer under the name EZZIATI, an award-winning author, and a devoted mother, she moves through life as an artist in perpetual motion, drawing inspiration from the boundless energy of her children. In 2019, she was named Writer of the Year for her debut novel Diary of the Revolution, a poignant exploration of resilience and transformation. She is also the creative force behind Heroes of Dreams, a children’s book series that distills the magic of courage, love, and imagination into tales that resonate across generations.
Sofia Ezziati’s world is a symphony—each note, each word, and each gallop composing an ever-evolving masterpiece. While many dream, she dares to translate those dreams into reality.
Some authors write to tell stories. Sofia writes to ignite souls. With Heroes of Dreams, she didn’t simply craft a children’s book series—she built a world where young minds can find strength in their own voices. Her characters—Serafima, the warrior girl; Stefania, the dreamer; and Sevastian, the dragon boy—are not merely fictional figures. They are echoes of her own children, reflections of real emotions and experiences, encouraging young readers to listen to their hearts.
And now, with the arrival of her youngest child, Severin, Sofia is certain that another chapter is waiting to be told. Her stories are alive, breathing, expanding—just as she is.
Beyond the written word, music has been a constant thread in Sofia’s artistic tapestry. Under the name EZZIATI, she has poured her soul into melody, writing and performing songs that speak to the depth of human emotion. One of her creations, Sun Girl, gives voice to the very characters she has so lovingly crafted in her books. The song is more than just a melody; it is an extension of her storytelling, bringing her world to life in a new dimension.
Through song, she captures the ephemeral—turning fleeting moments of inspiration into lasting echoes. Her music, much like her literature, is a bridge between imagination and reality, a portal into the universe she so vividly creates.
Some families bond over Sunday dinners. Sofia and her children bond over the cadence of hooves and the silent trust between rider and horse. What began as an attempt to unify different athletic pursuits evolved into an all-encompassing passion for equestrian sports.
From rhythmic gymnastics and judo, her children transitioned to a world where victory is not just measured in trophies, but in the profound connection between human and animal. Training six days a week, they have embraced discipline, perseverance, and resilience—qualities that Sofia sees mirrored in her own journey as an artist and mother.
The pinnacle of this journey? The winners’ podium, where her children stand side by side, their shared victories etched in golden moments that defy time.
“Every day, they learn to understand their horses, to trust them, to become one with them,” she says. In the arena, as in life, Sofia Ezziati teaches them that true greatness comes from connection, courage, and heart.
Greatness is not measured by accolades but by the stories one leaves behind. Sofia Ezziati’s legacy is already unfolding, not just in the books she writes, the music she composes, or the championships her children win, but in the way she lives—with unrelenting passion, fearless creativity, and an unwavering belief in the power of dreams.
“My children are an infinite source of inspiration,” she says. But in truth, it is Sofia herself who inspires—a woman who transforms life into art, and art into life.
