Love isn't always just so pretty pretty, but it is truth.
Imagine growing up in a household where women are the backbone but still play second fiddle to men. That's the backdrop for Dr. Esmilda's story, shared in this episode of 'Our New Voice'. Hosted by family therapist Madeline Thompson, this episode dives into the complexities of gender roles, especially from an intergenerational perspective. Dr.
Esmilda, who immigrated from the Dominican Republic as a young girl, saw the women in her family work tirelessly, often putting their own needs aside to serve the men. Now a doctor and a mother herself, she has found a way to strike a balance between caring for others and nurturing her own happiness. She offers candid reflections on how she manages to juggle her professional responsibilities and personal joy.
The conversation also touches on the broader implications of these roles, discussing how they shape our actions and identities across generations. If you've ever felt torn between societal expectations and personal fulfillment, this episode is a must-listen. It's a heartfelt dialogue that encourages us to align our hearts, minds, and actions in pursuit of a balanced life.
