Danielle learned the power of community and education growing up in the Inland Empire. As a first generation college student at Yale University, Danielle realized her family was not alone in their struggle to access equitable educational opportunities.

Customer Reviews
Learned so much!
Best podcast to listen to for life lessons, as a Latino it’s amazing listening to latinas speak the truth!
Relatable
Every episode has moments that I find relatable and moments that are hilarious. Love their dynamic.
Bestie wine time and mental health FO SHO
Super excite that you brought on someone who can speak to mental health for POC. The idea that mental health isn’t something that should be addressed, or shrugged off. That generational trauma exists. I’d like to add that I feel like a lot of people who experience trauma are carrying something that is a result of colonization. Like colorism, religion, sexism, etc. Thanks for this. As a newer mom, I want to support the idea of being with nature for better mental health. I see it in my son every time our nanny takes him out to one of our state parks. He just focuses more, listens deeply, and breaths. yes. Good stuff, Besties!
