I reflect on my mom's story and what it’s been like to witness my mom hold onto pain from her past. This isn’t about carrying her trauma, but about understanding how it shows up, and the moments I thought it was my responsibility to help her let it go.

Journal Prompts:

What is something a parent or caregiver still holds onto?

How does it show up (words, reactions, silence, habits)?

When did you first notice it?

How does your childhood trauma show up and how is it connected to your parents?

April is National Financial Literacy Month.

This is my money story.

I intend to share my story in order to destigmatize the topic of money. Money is part of your health, and it can make or break your health. Discussing money in a trustworthy community, also helps break the stigma and helps others if they going through anything similar.My relationship with money has grown a lot, but it has been a journey.

In this episode of Cafecito Time con Yaddy, we’re talking about healing your inner child. Many of the fears, insecurities, and emotional triggers we experience as adults can be connected to experiences from our childhood. When those early needs for love, safety, or validation weren’t fully met, our younger selves can still carry those wounds.

Today, we’re talking about what the inner child really is, how childhood experiences can shape the way we see ourselves and our relationships, and the signs that your inner child might still need healing. I’ll also share simple and compassionate ways to begin reconnecting with that younger version of yourself so you can start giving yourself the love, understanding, and support you may have needed back then.

Journal Prompt: What did my younger self need that I didn’t always receive?
