UNVEIL: intuitively unlearning life's bs

UNVEIL: intuitively unlearning life's bs

Unveil is the honest, fun-filled, soulful podcast hosted by sisters Nachi and Damaris, exploring what it really means to navigate life as first-generation Dominican Americans. Every other week, we peel back the layers—unlearning old beliefs, embracing growth, questioning the status quo, and having real conversations about identity, intuition, culture and the matrix. With laughter, storytelling, and Caribbean flavor, we dive into the truths we inherited, the ones we’re releasing, and the lives we’re consciously building. Grab your cafécito, té, or vino and join us as we lift the veil, celebrate our roots, and evolve together. unveiltounlearn.substack.com

Rather than viewing rest as something earned only after exhaustion, thi...
