Each week, tune in as Yarel and Jessica interview people you know (or who they think you should know) who are on their grind and learn the 'wait, hold up' moments that changed their lives. When they're not with a guest they're diving into the latest in pop culture & politics.
These days, it's so important to slow down and take a moment to check in on your well-being. We're bombarded with graphic news and challenging real-life circumstances that take away any peace we try to attain. This meditation is perfect for re-centering, prioritizing yourself, and giving your heart the levity it seeks.Â

As we've gotten older, we've fortunately gotten wiser, but there are still areas we struggle to heal. And for us, that's our body image issues... the age-old, bull-shittery of picking apart our bodies and not appreciating them for all the amazing work they do daily. In this cozy convo, we unpack our internal conflicts and frustrations. As you'll hear, this is still an area of big learning and healing that we're working on. Can you relate or do you have suggestions for healing? Email us at: [email protected]

Doctoras Miguelina RodrĂguez and Griselda RodrĂguez-Solomon are changing the way women connect to their divine feminine and their personal power in a patriarchal culture. Known as the Brujas of Brooklyn, these Afro-Dominican twins are challenging all the societal norms and expectations placed on women and creating space for others to do the same. In this conversation, we talk about our religious upbringings and finding identity in the word 'bruja' and how we all should connect with our womb and our menstrual cycles to experience transformation.

We've got Melissa Barrera and Leslie Grace, two of the leading ladies of "In the Heights" on the podcast this week! This convo, immediately turned into four homegirls chatting as we discussed their roles in this INCREDIBLE film, how they manage the pressure to succeed, honor their culture, and take care of their mental health. It's so dope to see these two Latinas in the most anticipated film of the summer, and even better to see all they represent for la cultura. You don't wanna miss this chat or the film, In the Heights - out on June 11th.
