Interview with Stacey Lopez, licensed psychotherapist. We talk about overcoming differences thru engaging in hard conversations. It’s a discussion about belonging and all the nuances of identity like heritage, race, gender, culture, nationality, sexual orientation, etc. We also talk about making space in our lives for vulnerability, self-introspection, cognitive dissonance and connection.

Tell me: Did you learn something new about the importance of identity and belonging? Did anything from the conversation surprise you or give you a new perspective? I'd love to know.
I believe the purpose of engaging in these hard conversations is having the opportunity to learn from different perspectives and experiences. Of course, that is if we go in with an open heart and mind.
Share this episode on overcoming our differences with your friends cause let's be real: divisiveness gets enough clicks and at the end of the day, we all have more in common than we realize.
Remember, don't be a mama con drama. Let's be Mamas Con Ganas!
Besitos, 😘😘😘
