Growing Thru It Pod: Growing Through Being an Afro-Latina

@ImJustJoslyn is back with another episode after a 2-week break for personal care and healing. Her special guest this week is a brilliant, proud, humble, cultured, Dominican American woman that is the first guest whom is part of @ImJustJoslyn's chosen family. We have the pleasure of listening to the fascinating and lovely @ALatinasguidetotennessee as she opens up and takes us through what it's like being and identifying as an Afro-Latina. She talks about the stereotypes, the challenges, but most importantly the beauty of being a Dominican woman in America.

@ALatinasguidetotennessee also has a personal mission of healing communities and has a call of action of her own! She is calling all female/female identifying daughters across the diaspora to be willing to be interviewed by her in a focused conversation centered around Parentification, Involuntary Responsibility, Intergenerational Trauma, and Familial Pressures. Reach out to move the discussion forward, as you may be spotlighted in her upcoming book!
