This is hitting close for many women, especially for us Latinas in the U.S.

The recent reporting involving César Chávez, with allegations of abuse connected to Dolores Huerta and other women, has been heavy to take in.

What is being shared comes from interviews, archival records, and corroborated accounts.

What it takes for a woman to speak after decades matters. To live for years holding an experience that could not be named, and to finally put words to it later in life, carries weight.

I don’t know the full truth.
You don’t know the full truth.

But I do know how difficult it must have been to speak about something has been held in silence for a long time. And no one has the right to dismiss that.

If harm is being named, especially around people in positions of power, we can’t have double standards.

The good that was done does not cancel out harm. Both can exist, and we have to be willing to face both.

So I choose to listen to what is being said and to what has been carried.

And to the women involved, and to Doña Dolores, I want you to know that I see you, I hear you, and I am with you, holding space for you.

This is how I am choosing to re-plant and re-member.

🎙️In this interview I share something that shaped my work.

Ecopsychology gave me a scientific framework to understand our connection with Nature.
Pacha philosophy gave me the heart and ethics to live that relationship.

As we move toward the Spring Equinox, the cycles of nature remind us of a simple truth:

We are not separate from the Earth.
We are part of its renewal.

Sometimes we understand what happened.

We can explain it, name it, even make peace with it.

And still, the body reacts.

Not because something is wrong,
but because the body learned in real time,
before there was space to process.

Many women learned to keep going.
To adapt quickly.
To move forward without stopping.

The body didn’t forget.
It just kept what it needed to carry.

There’s nothing to fix here.

Only something to notice,
at your own pace.

A veces, darnos cuenta es suficiente.

🌿Replant & Remember

When we speak about liberation, we often think about systems and structures.

But liberation also begins in places that are much closer to us,
in our bodies, in our emotions, in the stories we carry.

The work of emotional liberation is not only personal.
It quietly supports the liberation of the collective.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of speaking in many different rooms — conferences, gatherings, and conversations about culture, healing, and belonging.

What those spaces have shown me is how many of us carry a quiet skill: the ability to adapt.

For those who grew up between cultures, adaptation often becomes second nature. We learn to read environments quickly, to listen carefully, to navigate expectations that are sometimes invisible.

It took me time to realize that this ability was not something to hide or compensate for.

It is a form of intelligence shaped by migration, lineage, and experience.

And with time, I have also learned something else: belonging does not require erasing where we come from.

A veces una sola línea basta para abrir conversación.
