Break Generational Trauma by Always Seeing Love

Reina, send me a text of your thoughts of this episode or share a límite you want to overcome and want me to cover on the podcast

Hola reinas! Welcome back to Latina Sin Límites, the podcast created and hosted by me, Vanessa Rae Alonso, your Latina mentor, to guide you hacia tus sueños y más allá. En este episodio, we dive deep into one of the most transformative and often painful journeys many of us face: breaking generational trauma.

I open up about my own historia, sharing the patterns I had to uncover, los boundaries I had to set, and the love I had to rediscover, not just for my familia, but for myself. Because generational trauma doesn’t always scream, it whispers in our silence, in our self-doubt, and in the culpa we feel when we choose to dream bigger than anyone before us. But reina, healing is possible. In this third episode of the podcast, I’ll walk you through four transformational steps that will help you plant the seeds to build and cultivate a legacy — one rooted with strong roses filled with healing, Latina resiliency, empowerment and intention. 

This is a love letter to every Latina carrying the weight of unspoken wounds, ready to rewrite her historia. Because we are resilient, we are rosas que florecen from concrete. If you’ve ever felt stuck, guilty for dreaming, or unsure how to begin healing, this one's for you.
