Con Mi Mamá

We talk about the importance of mom/daughter dates and those definitive personality traits that most Latina moms possess. Gabi shares some exciting news and gives a Halloween recap. We also need YOUR help with a name for our listeners! 

Share your ideas in the comments and tell us your mom is Latina without telling me your mom is Latina. We'll share them in our upcoming episodes! Follow us on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/conmimamapodcast.

How did Gabi do in her first month of 7th grade? This thoughtful conversation gives us a peek into just how lonely those first few weeks of middle school can feel, but how we can change our mindset to make the most of every situation. We giggle as she shares her awkward conversation stories with peers, and how she plans on making new friends as an introvert. 

Got any awkward middle school memories? We'd love to hear them! Don't forget to also leave us a review and follow us on Instagram at https://instagram.com/conmimamapodcast.

"Are you REALLY hispanic?" It's the question we always get asked, but the question we answer with a resounding, "SI!!" We talk about Abuela's cooking, our favorite Puerto Rican dishes, music, and how we navigate learning as much as we can about who we are and truly honoring the rich beauty and history of our colorful heritage as Hispanics.

This week, we have Gabi's little sister, Mikayla, joining the podcast to talk about all the jitters they're facing as they head back to school this year. What will going back 5-days a week in the school building feel like compared to last year's virtual school? Are they nervous, excited, or both? We talk first-day outfits, favorite teachers, and more!

I was Gabi's age in 1992, and now she's obsessed with the decade that gave us grunge, Leo DiCaprio in his prime, and plenty of fashion revivals. But, how much does she REALLY know about the era where I lived out my teenage years, and what advice do I have for my daughter? - Melissa

We're HUGE "In The Heights" fans, so we lost our minds over the latest film release. We'll share not only why we love the show so much but why it's important to celebrate our "latinidad" (and spoiler - it's not just about whether or not you speak the language).
