It's our very first Christmas episode with our favorite little chismosa, Velisse! We talk about the switch to a new cheer gym and we dive into our fan theories about Stranger Things—who we think is going to save the day, which characters might not make it, and why we’re more excited for Vecna than for Santa this year. Get ready for laughs, plenty of spoilers, and all our wild predictions for the next season!

We also get REALLY real about faith, spirituality, and what prayer means to each of us. Vee opens up about growing up in different religious backgrounds, questioning big things, and how it’s okay to find your own connection even if you don’t fit into any box.

On top of all that, we swap stories about holiday traditions like opening a present on Christmas Eve, and how we always try to focus more on experiences than “stuff.” And, as always, I want to lift you up with some good vibes migente: I hope you and your families are showered with love, laughter, and relaxation this Christmas whether you’re celebrating with a crowd or keeping it cozy and small.

Thank you for tuning in to my shenanigans and supporting the podcast every week. It means the world to me! Stick around for next week’s New Year’s Eve episode, where I’ll share new goals and what I’m looking forward to in the year ahead. Merry Christmas and happy holidays, chismosas!  

This week we're taking it back to the very first episode of The Chisme Corner. 

Before the guests, the growth, before all the tea- this is where it started!

Whether you're new here or you've been rocking with me since day one, this episode is a reminder of the heart behind the chase: the real conversations, Latina perspective, and showing up as our full selves.

New episodes return next week with a special guest as we dive into Christmas and bringing in 2026 with new energy! Until then... enjoy this little trip to the vault! Xo

Ok chismosas and my badass baddies, we are back with another episode but this time, straight from my bathroom (because why not? My podcast, my rules). In this episode, we’re getting real about that end-of-year pressure. Feeling lazy, stuck in your head, or just straight-up over it? I’m sharing all my secrets on how to bounce back badder for 2026. 

We’re talking self-care, those little confidence boosts (hello, cute outfits and compliments!), and of course, my tried-and-true smell good product faves. I’m spilling on the fragrances that have me obsessed...... and trust, I only rave about what I actually use! As the world spins wild, remember: you can always control how you feel, look, and SHOW UP! So tune in and let’s glow up together, because I got you, always.

Ready to spill some real-life chisme, babe? In this episode of The Chisme Corner Vee is serving you Thanksgiving leftovers—in the form of surprise cheerleading drama (girl, the shade!), and the real tea about what it means to build community. We get raw about being the one who holds it all together when nobody else wants to show up, and why being the villager sometimes means setting boundaries (and sometimes means you’re just tired, let’s be honest).

So grab your cafecito, get comfy, and let’s vibe through the highs and lows of finding, losing, and recreating your village. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing it all, this one’s for you. Stick around till the end for some real talk about giving and receiving, plus a sneak peek at new merch (porque sí, it’s finally happening!).

Press play, join the convo, and remember: the chisme never stops, and neither do we!

This week’s episode is one of the most honest and empowering conversations yet! I’m chatting with my amiga Jessica Battle about all things body image—no filters, no fake positivity, just the truth. We open up about growing up surrounded by toxic diet culture, the pressure to shrink ourselves for the world, and all those heavy emotions so many of us have faced with food, our bodies, and our sense of worth. Jess shares her journey of building trust with herself, and redefining what true wellness and self-love look like beyond the number on a scale. Jess gets super real about divorce, rediscovering who you are, and building a business through it all. Plus, we swap stories about relationships, love languages, and why it’s okay to want that “forever person.” If you’ve ever struggled to love your body, wondered how to set healthy boundaries, or just need a reminder that you are so much more than your appearance this episode is for you! Tune in and let’s heal together, chismosas!

Whewwww chismosas, where do we even start with this season of "Selling Sunset"? The drama was INSANE! From Chrishell and Nicole going at it (again), with both of them just taking the low blows to a whole new level. Like, can y’all just agree to never speak again and call it a day? Chelsea tried to be nice and send Mary some flowers after she got robbed, and instead of just saying thanks, Mary (with some help from Bri’s energy) turned it into a whole thing. Girl, just take the flowers!

Then there was the Galentine’s party, more awkward run-ins, people acting like seeing a name card was the end of the world… ay dios mio que dramatica! Friendships are basically on life support after this—like, Chrishell and Emma can barely even look at each other, and Chelsea is just over everybody’s drama. The reunion? Pure chaos, with everyone yelling, people storming off, and nobody really solving a damn thing.

Honestly, this season is all about people being messy, setting way overdue boundaries, and the OG friendships totally falling apart. It was a hot mess, but you know we were living for every minute of it!
