Overcoming First-Gen Struggles
from Hella Latin@ Hosted by Odalys Jasmine
In this episode, I chat with my friend, Emilie Rodriguez aka EMZ. Our conversation is so special because we cover a topic most Latin@s don’t talk about—mental health. Together in this episode, we unpack our San Diego upbringing, our first-gen struggles, and how we're healing through self-care. Emilie vulnerably talks about her own experience with anxiety and how her Mexican-Filipino family navigated through their own trauma. This powerful womxn is on a mission to destigmatize conversations around mental health. She's currently launching a new IG page dedicated to affirmations and mental health resources. Follow Emilie @djemz_ on Instagram and @ems_ on Twitter for more details.
