I’m Eirene Torres — a truth-teller, cycle breaker, and first-generation Dominican American raised in survival and now living in truth. I grew up carrying more than I should have, navigating C-PTSD, generational trauma, and family dynamics that taught me to stay quiet, stay small, and stay grateful for pain.
I chose to break that.
Born Tired is where I share the stories, lessons, and healing that shaped me — motherhood, identity, estrangement, neurodivergence, and the moments that finally helped me breathe again. This channel is for people who grew up holding everything together, for the ones rebuilding their sense of self, and for anyone learning how to live a life that feels like theirs.
If you’re healing, breaking cycles, or finding the courage to speak your truth, you belong here. 🤍

I can honor the women I come from…without repeating what they had to survive. Because endurance isn’t freedom. And silence isn’t peace when it costs you yourself.

Environment matters more than we’re taught to believe. Some of us didn’t fail to thrive, we were planted in places that couldn’t hold us.
Healing isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about finally being supported enough to bloom.

For a long time, I thought peace meant keeping everything calm. I believed that if I could build a quiet home, I had broken the cycle.
Episode 3 is about learning that real peace isn’t control, it’s safety. It’s listening to the body. It’s choosing gentleness without erasing the past.

The body doesn’t forget what it learned to survive. Even when the mind tries to move on.
If this resonates, you’re not alone 🫶🏽

Survival has its own language.
Unlearning it takes time.
Episode 1 of Born Tired begins with naming what we were taught to hide, and telling the story as it is.
