  • 8. I Pushed Against the System and Became "The First"

    “The Firsts” are trailblazers. They're the first people in their families and communities to do it— go to college, get the job, become the leader, etc. But for people who don’t fit the traditional mold, being the first can be hard in an increasingly divided society. Dr. Charleanea is a First herself, and she work with clients who are also the First. They are women, BIPOC people, immigrants, and queer people who are working everyday to push past the systems pulling them down. 

    In this episode, Dr. Charleanea gives us an intimate look at how she defied the odds and became the successful queer Latina Psychologist and Life Coach she is today. From growing up in a household of poverty and abuse to navigating systems of racism in her education all throughout graduate school, she takes her story to teach you how to own yours. She’s here to guide the people who aren’t automatically granted guidance. She is Mother.
