  • meet MaribĆ­ Henriquez, LCSW (she/her): a first-generation Dominican-American, therapist, and founder of Project Chula. during our insightful conversation, MaribĆ­ shares her journey as the daughter of immigrant parents, navigating the complexities of identity, carving out her own path, and the responsibility of being a cultural bridge.

    we dive deep into the unique mental health challenges facing Gen Z and millennials, particularly those from immigrant backgrounds, as well as the financial anxiety tied to issues such as student loans, credit card debt and hyperconsumerism. we also chat about all things 'inner teen,' - you know, that slightly angsty yet highly observant presence we all have that encourages us to reconnect with our authentic selves and make choices rooted in curiosity and exploration.

    together, we explore the pressures of being a superwoman, the importance of embracing vulnerability, and the power of letting others show up for us.

  • juggling a 9-5 while building a business with BIG dreams is a balancing act, to say the least šŸ™ƒ

    this oneā€™s for the creatives, solopreneurs, small business owners, and everyone in-between.

    in this weekā€™s episode, weā€™re chatting sustainable entrepreneurship and the challenges of balancing a nine-to-five job with chasing big dreams. itā€™s essential to recognize that some of us are indeed in that liminal space in the middle, working a full-time job while building a business, and they both have their pros and cons (like freedom over your schedule vs. the illusion of job security). and of course, youā€™ll hear from our host, Priscilla O. Agyeman, MPH on her own journey of being a creative entrepreneur, as well as valuable resources and related episodes to support you on your own journey.

  • is it quiet quitting or are we just finally being realistic about our bandwidth at work? šŸ« 

    in this weekā€™s episode, we dive deep into the concepts of decentering work, quiet quitting, and bouncing back after being laid off. we start by exploring the phenomenon of quiet quittingā€”what it is, why it happens, and whether it's just a matter of doing what you're paid to do.

    we'll share practical tips on how to achieve this by creating a value system independent of your job title, engaging in hobbies, prioritizing self-care, and investing in personal development. and of course, youā€™ll hear from our host, Priscilla O. Agyeman, MPH on her own journey after being laid off, as well as valuable resources and related episodes to support you on your #corporatebaddie journey.

  • your fear of looking stupid and being perceived is holding you back, baddie. šŸ«£

    in this weekā€™s episode, we discuss the themes of self-perception, fear of being judged, and the balance between authenticity and oversharing in the age of hyper-visibility. inspired by the book title: 'The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck', we explore the concept of taking up space and being unapologetically yourself in a time where thereā€™s thousands of opinions about everything we share. so, grab your fav comfort drink, put your phone on DND and tune into this real af episode; also, you can watch this episode close and personal on YouTube.
