The trio discusses the importance of self-worth, mental well-being, dealing with haters, and the need to prioritize oneself. They explore how success can often be a feeling rather than an image or a list of accomplishments. Despi shares her journey post-book launch, the impact of her workshops, and her approach to self-care and self-expression.
