Mariposa Rising Podcast

Hosted by Dr. Charissa D. Pizarro, clinical psychologist, speaker, and founder of Mariposa Healing Alliance, this podcast explores the intersection of mental health, culture, and power. Through short, digestible episodes that blend honest conversations, personal reflections, and clinical insight, Mariposa Rising unpacks how trauma lives in our stories, our families, and our systems and how we begin to break those cycles. From intergenerational trauma and identity to boundaries, resilience, and reclaiming your voice, this space is for those ready to heal deeply and live intentionally. This podcast centers women, especially those navigating cultural expectations, generational patterns, and the weight of survival while learning to step into their power. Whether you’re a clinician, a cycle breaker, or someone simply trying to understand yourself more fully, you belong here. Because healing isn’t just personal, it’s transformative. Healing is power!
