Ep 11 | You Can Be Grateful and Still Want More: Breaking Free from Generational Guilt

Have you ever felt like wanting more somehow makes you less grateful?
Like if you ask for alignment, joy, or freedom—you’re disrespecting your family’s sacrifices?

In this soul-shifting episode, Dr. Onaysia Martinez, identity liberation coach, unpacks the guilt so many first-gen women carry when it comes to dreaming bigger. Through personal stories, ancestral context, and powerful mindset shifts, she gives you permission to stop playing small and start honoring your legacy in a new way.

✨ In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why gratitude and desire can (and should) coexist

• How generational guilt keeps high-achieving Latinas stuck in unaligned lives

• What it looks like to honor your family’s sacrifice without self-abandoning

• A mindset reframe that helps you start building a legacy that feels true to you

If you’ve ever thought:
🔎 “I should be thankful—I have more than my parents ever did…”
🔎 “Is it selfish to want something different than what my family planned for me?”
🔎 “How do I honor my roots and my own dreams?”
Then queen — this episode is your truth serum.
