Today’s episode title is a mouthful and for good reason. As first-gen Latinas, we’re parenting and reparenting every single day. We live in that in-between space: raised one way by our parents, yet raising our own kids in a completely different world. There’s healing here. There’s unlearning. There’s love, and yes, sometimes tears. We open our hearts in this conversation, asking questions like: What does it mean to say “I’m sorry” while still waiting to hear it from our parents? This one’s raw, real, and deeply relatable. We hope you’ll tune in to feel seen, maybe shed a tear (we sure did), and share in the beautiful mess of growing, healing, and breaking cycles... together.

In this episode, we bring you our monthly fan-favorite: the random show where we talk about whatever comes to mind. In this show, we always let the conversation flow and it flowed right into bullying. How to handle it at home, at work, or even as part of our upbringing/history! We also talk parenting and the chaos of morning routines, raising teens, keeping up with slang, and more! Don't miss it!

On this episode we discuss the rollercoaster of life that requires us to grow, heal, and evolve. Resiliency feels like a mandatory part of the human experience especially as first-gen. Latinas. Today, we talk about how healing, and not hustling, is the new definition of strength. We share our journeys of personal growth and how we created our heartfelt legacies along the way. All women need to hear this gem of an episode. You will so glad you did!

For the women of LUL growing up in the 80's was magical, simple, and oh so PRIVATE! Later, when in college, social media, cell phones with apps, and live streaming didn't exist and that was a good thing! Now, as we raise our children (ages 3-19), life is completely different and while technology helps it may also deeply hurt when unchecked! Listen to this episode if you're in need of parenthood advice as it relates to raising kids in this wild and crazy digital age! 

Looking for 40 minutes of fun? Look no further than today's LUL podcast. Episode 311 is a silly one where we play a little game of 'Would You Rather?'. This is one that will make you think about where you've been and where you are headed. Stream it and join the conversation online by commenting your answers for each of our questions! On social media, like and share and tell us your answers via DM! We love hearing from YOU!

Sometimes we all need a pick-me-up... especially when the winter blues kick in. In this episode, the women of LUL get real about the simple, sustainable ways they stay motivated and protect their peace. We share how we keep our sanity this time of year, how we remember to do it "mostly-all" guilt-free, and why giving ourselves grace (and embracing the pivot) matters more than ever. Expect practical tips, quick mindset resets, and a few laughs to warm things up. If you’re craving support to get back to your leveled-up goals, this one’s your cozy push to start again... with intention, ease, and zero guilt. Don’t miss it.

Pull up a chair with your amigas! In this month’s Random Show, we answer rapid-fire questions that spark real talk about how we think, love, work, and grow; and what we can learn from how others live, too. We even mine a few life gems from Bad Bunny. Vero’s sitting this one out, so it’s a two-mic vibe you’ll feel right at home with. Hit play, laugh with us, and leave with a couple aha moments & advice you can use today.

We've all been involved in work place gossip and rumors whether in the personal or the professional? Both take it out of you when it runs wild, but not all needs to be indulged in. In today's show our co-hosts talk about work place rumors and how they've handled the turmoil. This is a good one for all levels of career women. Don't miss this juicy topic.

In our early/mid-40s, we’re still those college girls at heart, just with more wisdom (and better boundaries). In this honest, funny, and heartfelt half hour, we write to our younger selves: what we nailed, what we learned the hard way, and the advice we’d whisper to that wild party-school undergrad. If you’re in your 20s or 30s, consider this your cheat sheet; if you’re any age, you’ll laugh, nod, and maybe grab a pen to write your own “Dear Me.” Don’t miss it.

Welcome back to Episode 305 of the Level Up Latina Podcast (this is the last of our summer series)! This week’s show is a little bit of everything, equal parts lighthearted and thought-provoking. We kick things off with the joy (and occasional chaos) of spontaneity: why saying yes in the moment can be both freeing and messy, but always worth the story. From there, we lean into the silly, asking ourselves about unique “superpowers.” But it wouldn’t be a true LUL episode without diving into the real world too. We turn the conversation toward current political affairs: what’s happening now, how it impacts our communities, and why staying informed matters more than ever, even when it feels overwhelming. Interested in learning about our GROUP COACHING COLLECTIVE? Learn more at the end of this episode. Our fall collective launches on 9/10/25 6:00-7:15pm PST, virtually for 5 weeks. This is the perfect community for women looking to max out the remainder of 2025!  

Vacation plans, tough work conversations, big life moments... everything goes smoother when you prep with intention. At LUL, we live by the mantra: you don’t have to get ready, if you stay ready. In this simple summer series episode, we share the little systems and mindset shifts to help you prepare on purpose, not in panic. Want to level up your prep game? Hit play.

EXPLICIT CONTENT: talking all things SEX from teens to 40’s and what’s changed in between.

Sometimes life has us feeling like a total hot mess… and other times, we’re absolutely bringing the heat! So, where are you this summer? Is life overflowing with chaos? Are you juggling it all like a pro? Or maybe you’re rocking that sweet spot of messy and hot. No judgment here because every season has its place. In this episode, the LUL coaches check their own “hot mess meter” and share why some messes are totally worth it. Stream this one for laughs, real talk, and maybe a little permission to embrace the chaos.

You asked for it… and we delivered with red faces and full honesty! In this episode, the LUL ladies share some of their most awkward, hilarious, and humbling moments... those unforgettable blunders that still make us cringe (and laugh) today. From teenager slip-ups to dating fails, nothing is off-limits as we keep it real and relatable. This one’s guaranteed to make you laugh out loud, but fair warning: if your mom, suegra, or teenage kids are listening, you might want to preview it first. Our families included! Tune in, laugh with us (or at us), and remember: we’ve all been there. Your worst moment? Probably not even close to ours.

Welcome to Season 4 and Episode 300 of the Level Up Latina Podcast. We can’t believe we’ve made it to Episode 300, and it’s all thanks to you, our incredible listeners around the world.

LUL’s amazing co-hosts, Cecy, Vero, and Irene, have shown up with consistency, heart, vulnerability, and a little crazy too, pouring themselves into 300 unforgettable episodes. In this special episode, we explore a timely and powerful topic: the Rise of AI. Before the robots completely take over (just kidding… kind of), we share our thoughts on how artificial intelligence is changing the game. From personal experiences with our new digital comadre, ChatGPT (aka Chata) to tips on how to use and avoid misusing AI, we dive into how this tool is impacting our lives, work, and creativity. As always, we keep it real, curious, and filled with laughter and love. This episode is a must-listen, full of insights, inspiration, and a little tech chisme for good measure. A very special thank you to our own Coach Irene, the behind-the-scenes powerhouse who has produced and edited all 300 episodes of the Level Up Latina Podcast. Your dedication, late nights, and creative magic have shaped this show from the very beginning. Thank you, Coach Irene.

Or maybe there's a change up and suddenly old habits and hobbies go away to assimilate to a new relationship?
