Living Unapologetically: Empowerment, Identity & Mental Health Advocacy with Paula Chirinos
In this bold and uplifting episode of The F.E.E.L Podcast, host Melissa Crook sits down with Paula Chirinos—healthcare communications rising star, passionate mental health advocate, and proud Latina—to talk about the power of showing up for yourself unapologetically.
As an immigrant from Peru, Paula shares her experience navigating the healthcare system’s systemic inequalities, and how those early experiences shaped her mission to advocate for underrepresented communities. From honoring her “small and powerful” roots to supporting women with compassion and confidence, Paula opens up about setting boundaries, prioritizing emotional wellness, and embracing her full identity.
You’ll walk away from this episode with tangible reflections on how to live in alignment with your values, reclaim your narrative, and confidently embody your truth—no matter what space you're.
