Living On Your Own, Episode 123

The decision to move out of your parents home can feel overwhelming, scary, exciting, or something altogether unknown.

If you're anything like us three first-gen Latinas there was also a lot of guilt that made up part of the process. In the show, we discuss why we moved out of our family of origin's homes, how and why we made that choice, and what it all turned into once it was said and done.

Our parents' advice included lots of wisdom and a few mistakes and today we share those tales with you!

Like, listen, and share this episode! And if you moved out many moons ago, listen anyway. There's something so fun about a walk down memory lane!
