Happy National Latina Day!     Amigas, we have the wonderful creator and host of Hella Latin@ podcast, Odalys Jasmine! Join our raw, reflective, and nuanced conversation where Odalys Jasmine gets real about her deeply personal journey as a Latina from Southeast San Diego, California. She talks about growing up with community abundance, experiencing homelessness during the 2008 financial crisis, and eventually being enlightened about Latino history and politics which led to the creation of Hella Latin@. She reflects on Latinos not having control of their own narratives, the pressure to assimilate in the U.S. workforce, and why she proudly chooses to show up unapologetically Latina. We dive into the interviews that changed her, like learning about the lack of mental health awareness for Latino men and intergenerational trauma with Dr. Mariel Buque. Odalys Jasmine emphasizes that our voices are power and that Latinos have a right to take up space. From cleaning jobs with her mom to couch surfing in college to building a platform that partners with schools and nonprofits, Odalys Jasmine proves that embracing our scars can shape resilience and purpose. Join this conversation between 2 Latinas owning the radical act of being seen.
