In this episode of First to Thrive, Nicole Cruz discusses the importance of prioritizing your peace, especially in a world that demands a lot from marginalized communities. With the challenges of the current political climate and ongoing global crises, Nicole encourages listeners to reflect on what peace means to them and how it can be a powerful form of self-care and resistance.

She acknowledges that peace is a privilege, something not always available to those in survival mode, but as first- and second-generation individuals, we now have the ability to create space for peace. Nicole offers practical ways to start prioritizing your peace, such as setting boundaries, taking time for yourself, and being gentle with your expectations.

Nicole also shares how peace supports long-term resilience and social change, reminding us that we need to sustain ourselves for the work ahead.
