Today's guest is Maria Dolorico. Maria is the daughter of Filipino immigrants - as she said to me in her pre-interview, she can't tell you who she is without telling you where she's from. She's a mental health clinician and a PhD student. In this episode, we talk about the cultural nuances of growing up in New Jersey. Maria also shares her journey from teaching to becoming a mental health professional. We also explore Maria's dissertation, which focuses on parenting third-generation Filipino Americans and the need to reclaim cultural identity through storytelling. I'm so excited for you all to get to know her. Enjoy!
