À propos de ce contenu audio

Latina motherhood is a complex journey, interwoven in two identities that often make us feel ni de aquí, ni de allá (not from here, not from there). However, Viva la Mami® is committed to providing Latina moms, allies, and professionals who support Latina moms with the knowledge and tools to further identify and understand the challenges and triumphs of Latina motherhood.


Join Jessica Cuevas as we discuss culturally relevant topics that will help inform and empower Latina moms in whichever season they are in on their motherhood journey. We'll be joined by Latina moms, experts, and professionals who can offer advice, practical tips, relatable stories, and honest conversations.


This podcast will cover an array of topics that is geared toward the modern Latina mom that will empower you to find balance between tradition and progress. Bring your cafecito as we all create honest conversations and share the complexities about madrehood.

    • 148. How to Break Free from Marianismo with Juda Avila, MA, AMFT
      Jan 29 2026

      In this week's episode, we welcome Juda Avila, a bilingual therapist and postpartum coach who's doing incredible work with first-gen Latina moms. As someone who experienced postpartum depression twice and grew up witnessing the silent sacrifices of Marianismo, Juda brings both professional expertise and lived experience to this conversation. We dive deep into the cultural expectations that keep us silent about our struggles, the identity loss that comes with motherhood, and most importantly, how we can redefine what it means to be a "good mom" without erasing ourselves in the process.

      For detailed show notes, visit vivalamami.com/episode148

      What You'll Hear:

      • What "silent grief" really means for professional Latina moms and why we struggle to voice our losses.
      • How Marianismo shapes our motherhood experience, creating the cultural expectation that we must sacrifice everything.
      • Matrescence explained, and why it's critically under-supported in our communities.
      • The Self-Care Menu framework - a practical approach to filling your cup daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly without the mom guilt.
      • Why there's no such thing as perfect balance, and how to embrace the "beautiful dance" of prioritizing different parts of your life at different times.
      • Building community and finding support systems beyond your partner, especially when cultural barriers make it hard to ask for help.

      Resources Mentioned:

      • Postpartum Support International (PSI) - Free resources in English
      • PSI en Español - Spanish-language support and community
      • Dr. Alexandra Sacks' TED Talk on Matrescence

    • 147. Why the U.S. Isn’t Built for Mothers (And What Latina Moms Deserve Instead)
      Jan 15 2026

      In this solo episode, I’m checking in with you. There is so much heaviness right now in the United States, especially for our Latino community, and I felt called to pause and hold space for everything Latina moms are carrying. From fear and uncertainty to burnout and survival mode, this episode is a reminder that you are not alone, you are not weak, and you are not imagining how hard this feels. This is a compassionate conversation about motherhood, mental health, community, and giving ourselves permission to slow down and take care of our nervous systems during a really difficult moment in time.

      What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

      • Why so many Latina moms are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and stretched thin right now
      • How systems in the U.S. fail mothers, women, and families, especially women of color
      • The emotional labor Latina moms carry as daughters, partners, and caregivers
      • Why burnout and survival mode are not personal failures, but systemic responses
      • Gentle ways to check in with yourself, regulate your nervous system, and prioritize your mental health

      Resources Mentioned:

      • Reach out to your primary care provider for mental health referrals
      • Look for Latina mom community groups (Facebook, local networks) for therapist recommendations
      • Postpartum Support International
      • Latinx Therapy
