Diving deeper into a conversation that happened on episode 91. Marisol finds herself still caught between being ones own authentic self, and changing parts of who you are for the betterment of a relationship. This is further illustrated by Adams southern background to be agreeable and gracious, while Marisol is asking him to speak up more, with Marisol's Latin influence to be upfront and in your face while also noting that white southern American culture is asking her to tone it down, or when Adam is asking for feedback to be delivered more gently. Marisol struggles with the dualism between cultural upbringing and the reality of your current community in which you live as well as the more at home issue of working to change parts of your personality to better serve your personal relationships. Listen in to this messy conversation of culture, community, and care.
