Healing Chingon
Healing Chingon strives to help create a safe space for those of us who live in the intersectionality of merging cultures as ever evolving creatures and what that means in today’s world. Through story telling we will heal together thriving through systematic, generational, cultural, personal trauma and experiences as we celebrate our “Superpower”, our identity.

Mental Health: The weapon no one expected
In this episode of Healing Chingón, I dive into a conversation that needs more nuance: the double-edged sword of mental health awareness. While the growing openness around mental health is powerful and necessary, it’s also brought about a new challenge — the weaponization of mental health language and the unintended fragility that can arise from over-identifying with our struggles.
I reflect on how our pursuit of healing and emotional balance can sometimes keep us from building the resilience we need to truly thrive. This isn’t about invalidating anyone’s experience — it’s about asking deeper questions: Are we using healing tools to grow stronger, or to protect ourselves from discomfort? Are we honoring our journey, or hiding behind the language of self-care?
Join me for a raw, honest, and personal exploration of what it means to heal with strength, grace, and accountability.
