147. Why the U.S. Isn’t Built for Mothers (And What Latina Moms Deserve Instead)

In this solo episode, I’m checking in with you. There is so much heaviness right now in the United States, especially for our Latino community, and I felt called to pause and hold space for everything Latina moms are carrying. From fear and uncertainty to burnout and survival mode, this episode is a reminder that you are not alone, you are not weak, and you are not imagining how hard this feels. This is a compassionate conversation about motherhood, mental health, community, and giving ourselves permission to slow down and take care of our nervous systems during a really difficult moment in time.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why so many Latina moms are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and stretched thin right now
• How systems in the U.S. fail mothers, women, and families, especially women of color
• The emotional labor Latina moms carry as daughters, partners, and caregivers
• Why burnout and survival mode are not personal failures, but systemic responses
• Gentle ways to check in with yourself, regulate your nervous system, and prioritize your mental health

Resources Mentioned:

• Reach out to your primary care provider for mental health referrals
• Look for Latina mom community groups (Facebook, local networks) for therapist recommendations
• Postpartum Support International
• Latinx Therapy
