Breaking Free from Cultural Taboos with Denise Soler Cox
from Tamarindo · host Tamarindo | Sonoro
This week on Tamarindo, we're joined by filmmaker, speaker, and author Denise Soler Cox to discuss her new book, What Will They Say?. Together, we unpack the unspoken cultural rules that many of us inherit, explore how fear of "¿Qué van a decir?" can shape our choices, and talk about setting boundaries, healing across generations, and honoring our culture while creating space to grow. It's a thoughtful conversation about identity, belonging, and finding the courage to live more authentically. https://denisesolercox.com/book Enraged about what’s happening in the world and need to channel that energy?
