“Work hard. Keep your head down. Let your work speak for itself.”

Sound familiar?

For Women of Color navigating STEM and other spaces where we remain underrepresented, that advice can carry a very different weight.

This Thursday, and I are talking about what it means to persevere without disappearing in the process—and why wellness, boundaries and community matter when you’re working to break barriers.

Before the school-day rush takes over, ask: Am I tired, tense, hungry, worried, or already overloaded? Your baseline affects how you show up—and you deserve care too.

Being the first (or one of the few) can be a source of incredible pride. It can also come with pressures that people on the outside don’t always see.

This Thursday, I’m going LIVE with to talk about our experiences as Women of Color in STEM: navigating spaces where few people look like us, pushing past barriers, lifting others as we climb—and learning to care for ourselves along the way.

Making it through the door matters. So does how you’re doing once you get there.

📖🌱 I’m excited to share more about my new book, *Rise and Thrive*—a guide informed by 30 years of clinical practice, research, and collaboration with diverse communities. It offers practical tools for parents and caregivers to help children build resilience, process hurt in healthy ways, and avoid getting stuck in cycles of ongoing grievance. 💛🛠️

🎥✨ I recently had the pleasure of joining the thoughtful, introspective, and endlessly curious actress Kate Easton for her YouTube series. You may recognize Kate from projects including *Magic Mike and *When They See Us. 🌟🎭

Kate reached out to my team about collaborating, and we happily agreed. Together, we explored the psychology of grievance—from where grievances begin to why some hurts can feel so difficult to release. 🧠💭

We discussed how people act on grievances, what keeps some individuals anchored to painful experiences, and how unresolved hurt can sometimes fuel a long-term campaign of retaliation against those around them. ⚡️🔄 IYKYK 🤷🏿‍♀️

Drawing on my work with patients who have faced these patterns over the years, I shared clinical perspectives on transforming pain into insight, growth, and healthier connection. 🫱🏼‍🫲🏿✨

🌟Join me and S C A R L I N HERNANDEZ🚀 💫for a powerful, timely conversation about being the 🥇 first, persevering in STEM fields where there are still far too few people who look like you, lifting as you climb, and caring for yourself along the way. 💪🏽✨

As two Women of Color breaking barriers in STEM, we’ll share the realities behind the milestones: the challenges we’ve faced, the ceilings we’ve shattered, the people we’ve supported, and—just as importantly—the ways we’ve learned to support **ourselves**. 🧠🔬🚀

Whether you’re in the middle of your journey, preparing to take your first step, or looking for encouragement to keep going, this conversation is for you. Expect honest reflections, practical tools, shared wisdom, and inspiration to help you move forward with confidence. 🤎🌈

This is a critical conversation for a critical moment. Come connect, learn, and leave with tools you can use on your own path. 🌱✨
