Axel talks about therapy through a first-gen Latino lens, not as an expert, but as someone who needed help and finally asked for it. Growing up with “échale ganas”, therapy felt unfamiliar, scary, and even shameful. Axel shares what pushed him to start, the fear before the first session, and how therapy gave him language, boundaries, and permission to rest. This conversation is for anyone who’s been curious about therapy but unsure if it’s “for them.” You’re not weak, you’re human, and you deserve support.MIJO PODCASTInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mijopodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@themijopodcastWebsite: https://www.mijopodcast.comAXELInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/axelperez.png/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@themijopodcastDisclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are solely those of the host and guests.
