The Random Show on Memories, Trauma and the In Between, Episode 333

Episode 333 of the LUL podcast is super heartfelt. We talk about memories, some filled with joy and others with melancholy and sadness. The core ones that stay with us, the sad ones that make us laugh today, and the ones that make us cry. We share candidly on how we look back on our childhoods and what they mean to us now.

This is a short and sweet show intended to bring listeners to a moment of pause and reflection. Trigger warning: while we may laugh about memories that might seem traumatic, we know memories are different for all. So in this episode we are simply holding space, sharing through tears and laughter without judgment. So, as with every show where we are authenticly ourselves, please listen with care. 

The Balancing Act of Parenthood (+Travel), Episode 332

Balancing motherhood, partnership, and careers that require travel is not always pretty, but it is real. In this LUL episode, Vero opens up about navigating young kids while working and holding it down when her husband travels. Cecy shares how she has learned to plan ahead and create rhythm in her home so things don’t fall apart when schedules shift. And Irene reflects on how this season has evolved over time with older kids, more independence, and more space to step outside of the home for work and for herself.

What has helped us most is not perfection but intention. Systems that keep the household running, humor when things inevitably go sideways, taking breaks without guilt, and being honest with our partners, our kids, and ourselves about what we need. Balance is not about doing everything equally it is about doing what matters most with clarity and support.

If you are in a season where you are juggling it all, this episode is your reminder that you are not alone. It gets lighter, it gets clearer, and you are allowed to grow into new versions of yourself along the way. This is what the level up really looks like.

Staying Hot, Healthy and Hydrated: Avoiding Burnout, Episode 331

It’s a candid conversation about caring for ourselves while juggling careers, family, and big goals. Expect too many random laughs, honest confessions, and a few reminders that wellness doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful.

Financially Investing in Love (and Ourselves), Episode 330

From the naughty to the practical, in this episode, the women of Level Up Latina get real about the many ways we’ve invested in our relationships. Today’s conversation dives into the lessons learned, the mindset shifts, the moments of grace, and yes… the fun and laughter that come with figuring it all out together.

In this show, we reflect on the many ways we’ve poured into ourselves for the greater good of partnership, marriage, and family—and why embracing growth (even when it requires a little courage or investment) can transform not only our relationships, but our lives.

Because at the end of the day, becoming better partners often starts with becoming better to ourselves, doing something uncomfortable, or asking for help from a trusted professional.

Don’t miss this honest, funny, and surprisingly relatable conversation.

Friendship Chemistry, Why Some Click and Some Don’t, Episode 329

Today’s episode is a listener-requested random show, and it’s a good one. A longtime LUL listener asked us to talk about friendships that just work and the ones that don’t.

Refusing to Look Away in Trying Times, Episode 326

In this timely and heartfelt episode, we unpack what is happening with ICE across the country and the very real fear, grief, and uncertainty many of our communities are experiencing. As Latinas, leaders, and humans, we reflect on how we are choosing to show up during this moment. We are refusing to look away in trying times by standing up for dignity, staying informed, protecting our peace, and caring for one another with intention.

We share what solidarity looks like in real life, how we are having conversations with our families and children, and ways to remain informed while advocating for compassion and justice. If you have been feeling heavy, angry, scared, or unsure of how to hold it all, this conversation is for you.

At the Level Up Latina Podcast, we believe in growth that does not abandon our people. In moments like these, community care is leadership. You are not alone. We are in this together.
