The fear is real, but so is OUR power. In this powerful and heartfelt episode, I sit down with the bold and brilliant Natalie Garcia to talk about what’s happening in our communities, what we’re feeling, and what we can actually do in the face of ICE raids, fear, and division.

You’ll hear two daughters of immigrants holding space for each other, navigating grief, rage, hope, and resilience. We discuss our responsibility as Latinas, especially those who have gained some privilege or power, and how we can stand in solidarity with our community without burning out. Whether you’re protesting in the streets or raising awareness at home, your role matters.

We talked about:

  • How ICE raids are impacting families in Los Angeles
  • What resistance looks like when you’re a mom or can't always be on the frontlines
  • Why community care, joy, and cultural pride are forms of protest
  • The upcoming July 1 nationwide boycott—and how you can participate
  • Healing through storytelling, dancing, writing, and remembering where you came from
  • What we need from privileged Latinas right now
  • Why the antidote to fear is collective courage and connection

This episode is a reminder that you don’t need to do everything, but you do need to do something. Our joy, our stories, and our unity are la medicina. ✊🏽💛
