On this episode of Cositas Mami Never Told Me, we unpack the stereotypes placed on Latina, Brown, and Black women — the ones that shape us, silence us, and sometimes even strengthen us. From the “strong woman who can handle everything” to the “spicy Latina” and the “angry Black woman,” these labels have followed us for generations.We talk honestly about where these stereotypes come from, how they show up in our daily lives, and the pressure they create to perform strength, resilience, and confidence even when we’re struggling. But we also explore something deeper: how some of these traits were born from survival, culture, and community — and how we can reclaim them in ways that empower rather than confine us.This episode is about unlearning, healing, and redefining what it means to be strong on our own terms. Because the things we were taught to hide might actually be the things that set us free.Expect real talk, cultural truth, a few laughs, and the kind of conversation mami never had with us… but should have.✨ Because sometimes the stereotypes that hurt us are the same ones we can transform into our power.
