    Ciao Everyone,

    we're getting up close and personal in this episode.

    One of the latest posts from Brown Girl Therapy had me in my thoughts and feelings. Sometimes, as migrants' kids, we can feel behind in our friendships and romantic experiences. I may look confident, but I often deal with my inner struggles and in this episode I share some.
