In this episode of No Me Callo / I Won’t Stay Quiet, Jessica invites us to honor the fire we carry as first-generation trailblazers First Gen Fire/Primera Generacion de Fuego. A fire born from the sacrifices of our parents, fueled by our resilience, and passed on through our stories, our work, and our dreams.
Through personal reflections on what it means to navigate two worlds, break barriers, and carry both the weight and the pride of being “first,” Jessica explores how this fire is not just survival it is strength, legacy, and transformation.

An intimate, honest, and empowering episode that reminds us: we are not defined by struggles alone, but by the fire inside us the fire we inherited, nurture, and pass on.

Here’s the book mentioned in the episode: I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter / No Soy Tu Perfecta Hija Mexicana by Erika L. Sánchez.
