Raids, Romance & Reality

In this episode of Say It en Voz Alta, Liz and Fatima revisit one of our most urgent conversations—navigating challenges and finding resources during ICE raids. While our full deep dive, Summer of ICE, covers every detail, today we’re keeping the conversation alive and personal. Plus, we get into what’s on every Latina’s mind right now—from the realities of dating to the latest cultural trends shaping our lives. And yes… that wild Labubu craze. Because apparently, everyone’s convinced these little plushies aren’t just cute, they’re possessed.

Summer of ICE

Summer of ICE Part 1 This episode isn’t about politics—it’s about psychology. The hosts share their personal experiences in the shadow of ICE raids in Los Angeles—raids that didn’t just take people away, but left behind fear, silence, and emotional scars. We hear from children who lived in fear of a knock at the door, many of them U.S. citizens watching their undocumented parents disappear into hiding. Through their stories, we begin to understand what collective trauma looks like—how anxiety and distrust toward institutions are passed down, generation after generation. This is not a momentary crisis. This is a psychological emergency unfolding in immigrant communities across L.A. and beyond. Este episodio no trata sobre política—trata sobre psicología. Las anfitrionas comparten sus experiencias personales bajo la sombra de las redadas de ICE en Los Ángeles—redadas que no solo se llevaban a personas, sino que dejaban atrás miedo, silencio y cicatrices emocionales. Escuchamos a niños que vivieron con el temor constante de un golpe en la puerta, muchos de ellos ciudadanos estadounidenses viendo cómo sus padres indocumentados desaparecían en la clandestinidad. A través de sus historias, comenzamos a entender lo que significa el trauma colectivo—cómo la ansiedad y la desconfianza hacia las instituciones se transmiten de generación en generación. Esto no es una crisis momentánea. Es una emergencia psicológica que se está desarrollando en comunidades inmigrantes en todo L.A. y más allá.

Breakup? Más Bien Breakthrough!

In this episode, Leti y Fátima dive deep into their post-breakup healing journey — desde los days of crying en el baÑo hasta learning how to say “I deserve better.” They share what actually helped (spoiler: no fue textearle al ex), the messy moments, the red flags they ignored, and the power they found en el proceso. Con un mix de laughs, lágrimas, y mucha honestidad, hablan de cómo turned pain into growth, and cómo el heartbreak les enseñó a love themselves de verdad. This is for anyone going through it — or who just wants to feel seen, heard, and reminded that tu glow up is coming.
