Amiga, Handle Your Shit

The Power of Standing Alone with Jessica Tapia


Listen Later

Despite the conversations and awareness about mental health increasing day by day in our society, there are still a lot of stigmas associated with it. One of the biggest ones is the reluctance to ask for professional help when needed the most. Many people are afraid of other people's judgment when it comes to going to therapy, a trend that needs to stop. Asking for professional help is not a sign of weakness. It’s a sign of self-love, self-care, and strength. 


Today’s guest, Jessica Tapia, will tell us why she decided to retire from her successful career as a banker and the repercussions on her mental health when she found herself in one of the most vulnerable moments of her life, doing IVF treatment. 


After a decade-long career as a banker both in public and private institutions that kept her away from home for long hours every day, Jessica Tapia decided it was time for her to make a change. This was the moment when she chose to retire to focus on being a mom. Now Jessica is a stay-at-home mom of two beautiful kids, and she is focusing on her and her family's well-being without the pressure of a full-time working schedule. This transition was full of ups and downs, but Jessica found her own way to get past the obstacles and thrive as a beautiful human being learning how to stand in her loneliness.
