Latino Mental Health: The Conversation W were Never Taught to Have

In this final episode of Real Talks with Steve, I sit down with Marla Guadámuz, a Latina therapist, to have an honest conversation about mental health in the Latino community.We talk about why so many of us were never taught to express our emotions, how stigma around therapy still affects our families, and what it really looks like to start prioritizing mental health. This episode brings everything together—from culture and upbringing to relationships and generational patterns—and challenges the way we’ve been taught to think about healing.If you’ve ever struggled to open up, felt like your emotions were dismissed, or are trying to break old patterns, this conversation is for you.
