In this episode of First to Thrive, Nicole sits down with Arielle Abalon, a Filipino-American artist, to talk about the powerful yet challenging act of prioritizing yourself, especially when faced with family expectations. Arielle shares a deeply personal story of navigating a difficult conversation with her dad about marriage and having kids. Instead of succumbing to societal and familial pressures, Arielle courageously sets boundaries, prioritizes her own desires, and advocates for her right to choose her own path.
