These Latinas Are Empowered By Their Late Neurodivergence Diagnosis
"Being a Latina in general in the United States and beyond the United States honestly is really having to put on this matriarchal role in societies that are really not. You have to be tough in a certain sense, and not really show too many weaknesses. And that can be tough when you're neurodivergent because the whole thing about neurodivergence is neurodivergence is claiming that you have a disability straight up. Point period blank."The latest CDC tally shows that one in six Latinos nationwide have a disability. This includes the less visible disabilities that fall within neurodivergence, experts say.100LatinaBirthdays.com100 Latina Birthdays is an original production of LWC Studios.

“We’re in limbo,” Says This Promotora on the Healthcare Frontlines

Relationships, Parenting, and Fitting in as a Queer Latina
Excerpt...Beatriz"I know they called me a lesbian. They actually looked at me and said, oh, you are a lesbian. That just helped me bury it. And of course then after that I was over the top boy. Crazy. Partly because I was boy crazy, but also because I needed to show everybody that No, no, no, no, no. I wasn't a lesbian. I definitely liked boys."Carmen"How did this affect your mental health in those early years?"Beatriz"I hated myself. I mentioned I developed an eating disorder when I was 15. I wasn't diagnosed with anything, but I remember I ate quite a bit and I was overweight. I think now the therapist in me now thinks I was burying my feelings and I was eating my feelings."100LatinaBirthdays.com100 Latina Birthdays is an original production of LWC Studios.

Latina Veterans Suffer from “Pushing Through” Pain
She served for almost six years. The work was hard on her body, and the physical labor hurt her back, much of it due to her need to fit in. "Especially being a female, I think we have to kind of prove ourselves to be at the level of the guys. … I feel that I definitely had to grow a thick skin." Carolina recalls the jeering from male sailors, and the unwanted attention she received simply for being a woman. But she believed she had to endure it all.The push to power through is common, says Dr. Pamela Fullerton, a bicultural clinical counselor with Puerto Rican and German heritage. "We see this story line in us Latinas … constantly trying to prove our worth."100LatinaBirthdays.com100 Latina Birthdays is an original production of LWC Studios.

At Midlife, These Latinas Finally Started Asking for What Their Bodies Wanted
Excerpt...Ana explains that guilt around sex is deeply ingrained, especially for women who’ve been taught to view their bodies as shameful or something to be hidden. "It’s sinful to even think about your body, and even things such as basic, as your genitalia, which is just another body part, your arm or your vagina or what have you." She says that stories passed down generationally keep women from questioning those narratives. That’s where her work helping women identify these damaging beliefs, and gently challenging them, begins.100LatinaBirthdays.com100 Latina Birthdays is an original production of LWC Studios.
