from Break Cycles, Not Chanclas: Set boundaries with family, break generational cycles, and parent differently as a first-gen Latina, while keeping your connection to your Latino cultural values. Live authentically and put yourself first in the healing journey · host Tiffany Tuttle-Life Coach for Latinas
You light up the dinner table when you are hanging out with your girls who really get you. So why do you code switch into the agreeable, grateful, and low-maintenance kinda girl when you’re around your parents, your boss, the co-workers that seems to just be good at communicating? If you've wondered why it feels so hard to just say what you mean, you're not alone. The real reason it’s so hard to speak confidently and clearly is because you were raised to silence your voice and your ideas so no one feels uncomfortable. It wasn't just encouraged, it was expected. As a first gen Latina, lack of communication was the norm, not the exception as a kid. When shrinking and seeking validation become your default, it that shapes everything from your boundaries to your self-worth. While that got you by for many years, you know that’s not the habits you want to pass on to your kids. So we’ll talk about the cost of silence, the pressure to be the “good one,” and why it’s not just about finding your voice—but giving yourself permission to use it. If you’ve been searching how to not feel guilty or wondering how to speak your needs without sounding “too much,” this one’s for you.Being understood starts with you choosing to speak up!Share your thoughts and questions with me—text me directly on this page!Hey, let’s keep this good thing going!On my website, you can: 📱Book a sales call📣Invite me to speak at your event📰Read my published articles👯♀️Connect on Social Mediaand more.
