  • Adult Friendships: Why Making Friends Gets Harder

    Making friends as an adult feels harder than it used to. When I first moved to LA in 2021, co-living made connection easy. But as life settled, marriage and old feelings of otredad returned, and friendship required more patience and vulnerability. Because yes, adult friendships are messy, slower, and intentional — and that’s the truth we don’t always want to hear.

  • Escucha esto si trabajas en redes

    En este episodio comparto mi historia real con las redes: desde mis primeros pasos en Facebook en 2009, pasando por el burnout de 2019, hasta el giro inesperado de 2024 cuando trabajé como content producer para una marca tech ed. Allí, logré crear contenido viral —videos que superaron los 10 millones de vistas— y esa experiencia rompió en mí la creencia de que la viralidad era solo superficialidad.Hoy entiendo que las redes, como la vida, no se tratan de extremos: no es idolatrar la viralidad ni rechazarla. Es encontrar el balance entre estrategia, autenticidad y servicio.

  • Ni de Aquí, Ni de Allá (Not From Here, Nor There)

    In this episode, I get candid about my identity crisis. Because being an immigrant means living between two worlds. Here, I share what it was like growing up in Barranquilla as “the odd one out,” the vindication I felt when I first arrived in the U.S., and how my long immigration process slowly stripped away that initial certainty. From endless paperwork to proving myself again and again, I realized belonging here always came with conditions. Still, I’ve learned to see ni de aquí ni de allá not as a wound, but as a bridge — one that lets me exist across cultures and languages. Because yes, being in-between can feel lonely… and that’s the truth we don’t always want to hear.


    If you've lived between two worlds, this episode sees you.

  • The Weight We Carry Alone (especially as women)

    We talk about invisible responsibilities — the weight you carry that no one sees, and how it shapes your identity until you start confusing it with who you are. In this episode, I reflect on exhaustion, resentment, and the slow rediscovery that not everything we carry is ours to hold.

  • el día que me dijeron fea y me lo creí

    ¿Qué significa crecer en una ciudad donde la belleza tiene apellido europeo? En este episodio comparto cómo fue ser una niña morena y gordita en Barranquilla, donde lo blanco era lo aspiracional, y cómo esa herida me llevó a literalmente construir mi imagen pieza por pieza. También reflexiono sobre lo que los medios han avanzado (y retrocedido) en representación, y cómo un problema de salud me obligó a replantear la belleza como algo mucho más profundo.

  • why are we so obsessed about (not) being cringe

    Send us a text

    We’ve all held ourselves back because we didn’t want to look “cringe.” But what if cringe culture isn’t about us at all — what if it’s society’s way of controlling expression and keeping us small?

    In this pilot episode, I share my own stories of being called “cringe” and how those moments shaped me as an artist, creator, and immigrant who built a life against the odds. From Colombian X Factor to Los Angeles, this is a raw reminder that every breakthrough looked cringe to someone at the beginning. And that’s the truth we don’t always want to hear.

    If you’ve ever felt embarrassed before you even hit post, this one’s for you.
