Does your heart break when you hear about about Spanish-speaking children and families experiencing fear and oppression in the US and abroad? Would you like to help support diverse communities during turbulent times?
In this interview, Veronica shares about the oppression that she and many other Latinos have encountered both in the US as well as in their countries of origin. She also shares self-compassion tools that can help to soothe and empower. We discuss the effects that anti-immigrant rhetoric has on minority groups, as well as her efforts to help Spanish-speaking children discover self-compassion, both in the United States and abroad.
