Ep#72- Watching My Parents Date Again (Spanish Podcast)

In this episode, I’m opening up about a very personal part of my life: my parents' divorce when I was 9 years old. But this isn't a sad story—it’s a conversation about growth, empathy, and seeing our parents as human beings with their own dreams and romantic lives. I’m sharing my honest experience watching them date again over the years; the good, the awkward, and the difficult moments. Now that they are both single, I reflect on what I’ve learned from their journeys and, most importantly, the kind of partners I truly wish for them in this stage of their lives.

Ep#71-Embarrassing Moments We All Pretend Didn’t Happen (Spanish Podcast)

We all have those moments. (I hope) lol The ones that randomly come back at 2 a.m. and make us think, “Why did I do that?” In this episode, I react to embarrassing human moments we’ve all experienced, from awkward social situations to small mistakes that somehow feel huge in our heads. Why does embarrassment feel so intense? And why do we remember it for years? If you’ve ever replayed a cringe moment in your head… this one is for you. Thank you for listening 💛

Ep#70- Do Friendships Have an Expiration Date? (Spanish Podcast)

🗣️✨👩‍🏫 https://patreon.com/andrealamexicana Friendships don’t always end with fights. Sometimes, they simply expire. In this episode, I talk about red flags in friendships, emotional alignment, envy, ghosting, and the uncomfortable truth that not every friendship is meant to last forever. Living away from home has changed the way I see friendship. Distance reveals who stays, who fades, and who grows with you. Some times, growth creates distance. And sometimes, that distance is necessary. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’ve outgrown a friendship, this episode is for you.

🗣️✨👩‍🏫 https://patreon.com/andrealamexicana Is it true that you become a different person when you speak another language? 🤨In Episode 69, I’m joined by my student Chris (from the USA) for a very 'spicy' conversation about a topic I usually avoid: Bad Words. As many of you know, I don’t use bad words in Spanish, it just doesn't feel like me! But for some reason, swearing in English feels... easier? Less heavy? Chris and I dive into this linguistic mystery and compare how Mexicans and Americans handle 'forbidden' vocabulary.
