This week on Radically Loved, Rosie Acosta, Tessa Tovar, and Raquel Reichard explore the themes of cultural identity, spiritual self-care, the concept of Marianismo, and the true meaning of self-care. They delve into the delicate balance of respecting cultural traditions while challenging harmful norms, and the importance of personal transformation in influencing others. Raquel discusses her book 'Self Care for Latinas' and the process of writing it. She emphasizes the importance of destigmatizing mental health and releasing the guilt associated with self-care. Raquel highlights the evolving nature of self-care and the importance of finding tools and techniques that work for each individual. 

This episode is for you if you're ready to have these same conversations about self-care within your own families and communities.

1. Learn to release the guilt associated with self-care.
2. Unlearn the cultural expectations of Marianismo and why it is important for Latinas to prioritize their own needs.
3. Remember that Self-care is not one-size-fits-all and should be tailored to individual needs and preferences.
