We open up about holding on to rencor, carrying anger for years, and the emotional battle between protecting your peace or letting someone back in. Can you truly love someone while still feeling hurt by them? Is forgiveness necessary for healing… or is it okay to never fully let go?

From family relationships to childhood wounds, we dive into the complicated emotions that come with resentment, boundaries, guilt, and the fear of losing time with the people we love.

This conversation is raw, honest, and for anyone who’s ever struggled between staying angry forever or choosing connection before it’s too late.

Tune in and join the conversation — because sometimes the hardest thing to admit is that two feelings can exist at once: love and rencor.

This episode is personal. We’re talking about what it really looks like when your childhood is shaped by your parents’ struggles with addiction—the responsibilities, the silence, the strength you had to find way too early.

Brenda is under the weather this week, but I’m not alone… I’ve got a special (and handsome ) guest joining me for this conversation.

If you’ve ever had to be strong before you were ready, if you’ve ever carried things you shouldn’t have had to… this one is for you

We’re talking about friendships that feel like soulmates, the red flags we used to ignore (never again 🙃), and the ones we spot from a mile away now.

And yes… Brenda is giving us the closure update on her dating story. The tea is hot, but the growth? Even hotter.

From knowing your worth, to protecting your peace, to recognizing when “potential” is just a red flag in disguise. This one is for the girls.

Grab your wine, text your besties, and tune in. 💋✨

Because sometimes the biggest love story… is the one you have with your friends.

In this episode of Callate Let Me Finish, we get real about the chaos, the laughs, y el trauma that somehow ALWAYS shows up around Christmas.


From Brenda’s traumatic Christmas Eve story  to why las mamás are literally the Christmas magic (aunque estén cansadas, estresadas, y running on cafecito), we break it all down. We also get into the best gifts ever, holiday survival tips, y obviamente los side tangents that happen when two besties sit down with mics.


If you’ve ever:

 Llorado en el baño during a family party

 Felt the pressure to make Christmas “perfect”

 Been la mamá making magic with no credit

 Survived the holidays powered by tamales y vibes

In this episode, we rant (with love) about juggling work, home life, and these kids that run our whole world and even though we complain… we wouldn’t trade this life for anything. 

PLUS, we’re introducing a brand new segment: “Como Prometido” where we finally put Brenda on the spot and rate her flirting skills  (yes, it gets interesting).

Grab your cafecito, laugh with us, and remind yourself you’re not alone in this mamá hustle.

From the funny to the heartfelt, we’re sharing how we were raised, our first steps into motherhood, and how (let’s be honest) we’re all just winging it day by day. 


This conversation is extra special to us, and we can’t wait to share it with all of our mama friends who are on their own journeys. Whether you’re a mom, thinking about motherhood, or just curious about the ride, we’ve got a seat for you here—en puro Spanglish style.

(But Weren't)]]>Why did everything feel so intense back then?! 

In this episode, we’re talking about the moments we truly believed were the end of the world! Friend breakups, messy heartbreaks, and getting caught up in things we definitely shouldn’t have been doing.

Through all the laughs and stories, we realize how much we’ve grown and how those moments shaped us into who we are today.

If you’ve ever been dramatic (no shame, same), this one’s for you.
