Grad School Femtoring: Inclusive Grad School Stories, Personal Development, and Productivity Tips for First-Gen BIPOCs

Shownotes Transcript

In this episode, I cover the topic of key reasons why many first-gen Latinas struggle with self-care. I introduce five sociocultural concepts that may be impacting your ability to care for yourself. They include marianismo, familismo, imposter phenomenon, microaggressions, and cultural straddling. By understanding how these challenges may be directly or indirectly impacting you, you can develop personalized practices to manage them while still promoting your overall wellness.
