Have you ever felt like wanting more somehow makes you less grateful? Like if you ask for alignment, joy, or freedom—you’re disrespecting your family’s sacrifices?
In this soul-shifting episode, Dr. Onaysia Martinez, identity liberation coach, unpacks the guilt so many first-gen women carry when it comes to dreaming bigger. Through personal stories, ancestral context, and powerful mindset shifts, she gives you permission to stop playing small and start honoring your legacy in a new way.
✨ In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why gratitude and desire can (and should) coexist
How generational guilt keeps high-achieving Latinas stuck in unaligned lives
What it looks like to honor your family’s sacrifice without self-abandoning
A mindset reframe that helps you start building a legacy that feels true to you
