EPISODE 08 - BILINGUAL STRUGGLES

On this week’s episode we go into a subject that has come up again and again among our listeners and guests, what's the easiest way to keep our kids bilingual ?! We have invited a dear friend of ours, Rebecca Bernard Aguiar, Co-Founder of World City Center, a dual-language Preschool to help us put some light on this subject and other school related issues.  We talk about the struggles of maintaining our language alive, and the craziness behind getting our kids into preschool, TK and Kinder (and you thought labor was hard!).

EPISODE 07 - BRICIA'S BIRTH STORY

This week in our podcast Bricia talks about her Birth Story.  She tells us how she “trained” for that special moment and how staying informed and learning about birth helped her be prepared and have the labor she wanted.  After labor, things changed very quickly and unexpectedly so she, as many of us do had to roll with with the punches and accept that when it comes to having a baby the only perfect thing is the baby itself.

EPISODE 06 - SINGLE MAMAS W MELINA MATA

This week in our podcast we have our dear friend Melina Mata, Producer and director for Latino Music Entertainment Television, who is not just a #SuperMama, she is way more than that, she is a #SingleSuperMama, she shares with us her journey through this challenging yet rewarding adventure, how she has managed to still achieve her goals and dreams while doing it it all on her own and teach her daughter to balance life between two households. We hope her story inspires all you single Mamis out there!

EPISODE 05 - #MOMCRUSH LILY MARTINEZ AKA @LILYLOVE213

This week in our podcast we have our #MomCrush Lily Martinez, Mom of 4 (plus two dogs), Creative Problem Solver, Designer, Illustrator, Pancake Ninja, Instagram sensation and overall down to earth #SuperMama.  Lily tells us how she has grown in her Mommy journey and how she keeps her priorities straight to be able to take care of herself and therefore take care of her family. She inspires us to forgive ourselves, to avoid judgment and most important to enjoy life, have fun and live in the moment.

EPISODE 04: TEENAGE PREGNANCY W LINDA GARCIA

This week in our Podcast we talk about a very important subject - Teen Pregnancy.  Our friend Linda Garcia shares her very powerful story on how she overcame her circumstances through her faith and using other’s criticism as fuel to become the #SuperMama she is today.  This story does not glorify teen pregnancy but rather shows you the crude reality of what a teenager goes through when she does not want to become part of the statistics and the tough decisions she had to make at a very young age.  We hope you enjoy this story as much as we did.
