Entering motherhood is hard in itself but learning a new cultural while upholding your home roots brings a whole different level of difficulty. Dulce Orozco speaks to all Latinx mothers today as she shares her story and helpful resources for mental health and healing women of color.
“I work with women of color, from immigrant families, not only Latinx women, but women of color in general, helping them to put themselves first, which I think is hard for women in general, but it has a different flavor when it comes to Latinx women.”
