Family Ties & Fresh Starts

Why do we go to Church?

Patrick is back! 🎉 In this episode, he opens up about delivering his daughter (yes, you read that right 👀), the emotions he felt during his paternity leave, and how that season shaped his faith. Guillermo and Bianca jump in to share their personal reasons for going to church, digging into the heart behind community, worship, and love. One of our favorite takeaways from Patrick: “Church is not about what people are gonna be able to do for you; it’s about you loving people. Church becomes an opportunity for you to worship God through your love for people.” This conversation is raw, encouraging, and a reminder of why showing up matters—not just for us, but for God and for others.

Faith, Uncertainty, and Figuring it Out

After a long pause, Let’s Unpack is back — and life has been a lot. Patrick just had surgery and is preparing to welcome his second child — his first baby girl. Bianca is taking space to heal And Guillermo is wrestling with faith, feeling distant from God, stuck between the pressure to “make it” and the call to trust Jesus.

When Trust Breaks, Needs Go Unmet, and We Forget Ourselves.

In this vulnerable conversation, Guillermo, Pat, and Bianca sit with the pain and patterns of mistrust, emotional deprivation, and self-sacrifice. Together, they explore how early wounds shape the way we love, trust, and show up — often at the cost of ourselves. They reflect on what it means to live with unmet emotional needs, to carry invisible fears into our closest relationships, and to lose parts of ourselves while trying to hold everyone else together. This episode isn’t about quick fixes — it’s about naming the hurt, understanding the roots, and beginning the long, necessary work of healing.
