The Level Up Latina Podcast

Celebrating Influential Women, Episode 237

As we continue to celebrate Women's History Month, on the podcast today we talk about influential women (mostly Latinas) from our past and present. Some we know personally and many lived long ago and still inspire us today. With this show, we celebrate the power that it is to be phenomenally Latinas and extraordinarily female!

Speaking of extraordinary, on today's show we learn about one of our co-hosts, Coach Irene's contributions to her latest book (Extraordinary Latinas, Vol. 3, available on Amazon.com) and we talk about how March 11 was proclaimed "Latina History Day" in the city of Los Angeles. On the show, our co-host mentions the 7th, but please note we meant the 11th... though really, every day should be LATINA APPRECIATION/HISTORY DAY :)~ 

Career Movement: Staying vs. Leaving, Episode 236

Job hopping is so much more prevalent in this generation and for good reason. The coaches of LUL talk about the trends they're seeing with clients deciding to job-hop or stay. Our hosts also tackle personal experiences and so much more in this extensive episode covering all things career movement!

No matter your generation, or work industry, this episode will empower you to make the most of your career within the same company, while changing companies routinely, and even as an entrepreneur! This is a CAN'T MISS episode... stream it today!

The Most Touching Random Show, Episode 235

Those new to our podcast may not know we record one random episode every single month. And so here it is for Feb. 2024.

This show goes any and everywhere and the topic is usually light and easygoing. We discuss trips, fun, and all too often food! Today, our topic goes much deeper as one of our co-hosts shares about a recent and significant loss in her life. This is an episode not to be missed. Honest emotions (and support while we're letting them flow) are what every Leveled Up woman needs in her life. We hope you'll join us for this beautiful random show among longtime amigas; mujeres with over two decades of love holding them together! 

And for anyone who's lost someone they love, we hope our show is uplifting & validating to you especially!

Overcoming Sex and Intimacy Taboos, Episode 234

The ladies of LUL share their take on how they encountered sex for the first time, what's changed, and what Latino/Catholic guilt they needed to release to be truly fulfilled in the bedroom. Each host shares unique and personal stories that we hope will help liberate more women to embrace sex and intimacy to enjoy this exciting part of life!

Getting Back INTO a Routine, Episode 233

Routines can be hard but also the BEST thing for us. Whether you're navigating a new workplace or workout routine, an after-holiday "back to normal" vibe, or maybe just a new routine with new people in your life, this show is full of practical tips that will help you stick to a pattern of behaviors that work for you! Listen, share, and comment... share with us your favorite routine hacks!

Get to Know LUL for the New Year, Episode.232

This is the best episode to listen to for a New Year reset! We reintroduce each of our co-hosts, and give an update on life, and our thriving coaching businesses & individual backgrounds! Start here if you're NEW to LUL :) And until then, we are wishing you a 2024 full of blessings and breakthroughs.

Going Too Deep with Ice Breakers, Episode 231

We thought this would be a light episode on Christmas icebreakers, but somehow we all cried before we knew it! 

Reminiscing about the holidays brought up a lot of first-gen Latina emotions around the holidays. We think back to traditions, how they made us feel then, and what they mean to us now. Bring on the tender hearts and stream this episode stat! It'll put you in a festive, grateful, and fun-loving mood.

Disclaimer: Santa comes up, so be careful with the little ears that might be around!

How Not To Eat Your Words, Episode 230

You might think this episode is not for you if you're not a parent, but think again... we talk about all the ways our 'kid-free self' talked about how we'd get it all right, and yet here we are "eating our words!"

For moms and non-moms alike, this episode will make you reflect on how you were brought up, how you might be raising your children, or how you might not make plans on being the "best" because everyone's best is very different.

Check out this judgment-free episode!

It'll make you laugh and think, so don't miss it! 

November Random Show, Episode 229

Today we bring you THE show of all shows... where Cecy plugs her very serious music career, which Irene will manage, and Vero will produce all while baking holiday pies. Ok... not completely serious, but maybe just a little because this is a random show!

We talk about Cecy's birthday as we record on the actual day as well as other chaos to recap a month of holidays, vacations, and life in general. This is most definitely a completely off-the-rails show. Stream it if you want a very good laugh. You'll be so GLAD you did!!!

How to Get and Stay Excited, Episode 228

Sometimes, life becomes so routine that we forget what we once dreamed of having or accomplishing! Or maybe for some, we take what we worked for for granted. Today, we reflect on the last time we were excited about something. That something could be from many moons ago to just recently.

Either way, the ladies of LUL spend time dissecting the power of gratitude and excitement... and eventually, we discuss how that personal excitement leads to personal gifts not only as coaches but as friends! Don't miss this thought-provoking episode!
