Our first born went to school for the first time in her life. At 4yrs old Ariela Sotelo taught us, her parents, an amazing lesson that we can all apply into our daily life. Wait till you hear the Voice Message she sent Edgar (her Dad) when she found out he was nervous about her going to school for the first time ever!

Familia in today’s episode we will learn along with you about how we can Raise Confident Bilingual Children. We believe that it is a Blessing to be Bilingual and we should pass this Blessing on to our Children. One of the Key ways to grow our Children’s Confidence in their Latino Roots is by helping them Learn Spanish, but how do we do that!?!?! Our Special Guest & Friend Elda Rojas who’s an expert in Bilingual Education with Degrees from Harvard and Texas State University will guide us in today’s episode!

Familia if you’re Bicultural and or Bi-Racial there’s a unique struggle that you go through that others who aren’t don’t experience.

The Struggle is that you sometimes feel like you’re not Enough of one side or the other, you feel like you have to prove to people from either side that you do belong. For example if you’re Mexican American but some people don’t think you’re Mexican enough and the opposite applies as well. Our awesome Guest and Friend Carina De Santiago will join us to discuss. How do you deal with this identity struggle and how do we raise our Bicultural and or Biracial Kids to grow up being Proud of ALL THAT THEY ARE and Most importantly Knowing that they are enough! Dive into this topic with us on today's episode! 

 Have a Blessed Week and remember to love serve and celebrate each other! Los queremos mucho y Gracias Por siempre apoyarnos!

Hi Familia, if you’re tired of your routine and find yourself getting frustrated at life, your loved ones and yourself way too easily: We Can Relate. This is the perfect episode for you. 

 Let’s be honest it doesn’t take much for you to lose it but at the end of the day it is your choice to lose it. We’re guilty of losing it sometimes too and Edgar shares his most recent experience and what helped him get out of his victim mentality and funk! Also sidenote, Janet needs an intervention! 

 We want to challenge you to do something out of the ordinary this week, change something in your daily routine. Once you do it, please DM us @DiscoveringAgape and or @EdgariSotelo . We complain so much about how tired we are with our daily routine but we choose to do the same thing every week. 

Have a Blessed Week and remember to love serve and celebrate each other! Los queremos mucho y Gracias Por siempre apoyarnos! 

Thank you Familia!

Familia, we have some Fun Life Experiences we want to share with you. We had the Blessing of Celebrating our 10th Wedding Anniversary in Cabo San Lucas Mexico at the Hotel where we got Married. It was a great anniversary but Edgar Had a "Medical Emergency" on the trip. He’s ok now, thank God, He's also a big baby. Have fun listening to this adventure and get Janet’s Traveling Tips for you and your kids!

Familia we didn't plan for this episode to happen, as we started recording, the topic went in an entirely different direction but it was raw, inspiring and encouraging! That's what makes this episode SO special! We truly believe this episode is meant for those of you that have been planning something big but fear has stopped you from jumping!

Stop sitting still in Fear and Start Moving in Faith! As Edgar's Dad Antonio used to say to him, mijo entre mas rapido empieses a sembrar mas rapido vas a cosechar las bendiciones de Dios. The sooner you begin planting the sooner you will begin to Harvest the fruits of your labor and God’s Blessings for your life. We hope you enjoy it familia! 

Have a Blessed Week and remember to love serve and celebrate each other! Los queremos mucho y Gracias Por siempre apoyarnos! 

Thank you Familia!
