Surviving Scarcity Can Teach You to Thrive, Not Just Survive

This episode sits with the quiet ways survival mode shapes generations — not from personal failure, but from the systems that turn scarcity and silence into a way of life. Charly Stoever opens up about navigating identity, money, and belonging as a queer, formerly undocumented kid, noticing how the body holds it all.Together, we trace how communal care, rest, and joy can interrupt what we’ve been taught about grinding our way to safety.Thank you to Savvy Ladies for supporting Cafe con Pam.
