In this episode, hosts Anne and Alison interview Cynthia Perez, LCSW, a Chicana therapist, author, public speaker, and Inner Child Hype Woman. We learn how she came to do this work of hyping up our inner child, how to do the work, and why acknowledging our inner child is so important (the pain is not too great! We can do it!). We discuss social justice-informed therapy and healing, the work of feeling self and historical pain, and Cynthia’s Chicana identity.
