Fanny Tristan: Who told you something was wrong with being single?
Manage episode 511428470 series 3372805
What if being single isn't something to fix, but a powerful season for growth and self-discovery? Trauma therapist and empowerment coach Fanny Tristan joins us to challenge everything you thought you knew about singlehood for women of color.
Drawing from her experiences as both Black and Latina, Fanny shares how growing up "on the margins" gave her unique insights into systems of oppression that shape our relationships with ourselves and others. She reveals the journey that led her to create two transformative spaces: Restority Space, her therapy practice focused on eldest daughters dealing with trauma, and Her Soul Supply, a coaching platform that helps single Black and Brown women build lives that feel authentically theirs.
What makes this episode truly special is Fanny's ability to balance deep analysis with practical wisdom and hope. Her mission extends beyond her clients to raising her daughter in a world where "your happiness is not on hold for men" and women don't need to "wait to be chosen in order to live your best life."
Whether you're single, partnered, or somewhere in between, this conversation offers transformative insights about breaking free from society's expectations to create a life that feels genuinely yours.
