Ep16 - Covid, Vaccines & Everything in Between

Welcome to show everyone and happy Labor Day weekend! I hope you are all having a fun and SAFE time, whatever that looks like this year. That being said, today we are embarking on a conversation that I originally wanted to stay away from but, in light of the past couple weeks I felt I could not avoid it.

Ep14 - Coping with Estrangement, Addiction, and Death.

I’m chatting with my girlfriend of 15 years, Barbara (Barbie) Mercado.

From our fake ID days, to becoming stay at home moms, the stories are truly endless but today I wanted to talk specifically about her recent birth story, that didn’t go according to plan.

At 33 weeks pregnant things took a turn for the worst and she walks us through the ENTIRE thing… and doesn’t sugar coat any of it!

She shares her struggles with postpartum depression, the guilt she felt while her son was in the NICU (and not for the reason you think), plus the BIG RED FLAGS she ignored prior to going into labor (hindsight being 2020) that she wants any soon to be mamas to be aware of.

Ep10 - Sex/Life & Avocados

After a very abrupt ending to our last show, I realized I just couldn’t get enough of my cousin Thania and we HAD to do a part 2. We had tons of fun last time, but I really wanted to hear her opinions on Sex, Dating & Single-Life, how to know if you’re having an unhealthy relationship with alcohol, and much more. We also spend some time breaking down the concept behind the hit show on Netflix, Sex/Life. Also, what do sex and avocados have in common? Guess you’ll have to listen to find out!
