Written By The Phoenix Empowered

In this episode of the First Gen Healing podcast, José Rosario shares how the Radical Healing framework shapes his work as a therapist and community advocate. He and host Priscilla explore what true healing looks like for first-generation Latinx individuals — moving beyond “just coping” and toward collective empowerment, identity affirmation, and cultural pride.

José discusses the power of vulnerability, ancestral wisdom, and community-rooted support systems. He also highlights the mission behind The Phoenix Empowered: elevating stories and transforming systems so that healing is accessible and culturally aligned.
