We’re back from our book tour and we missed the mic.

This week, we sit down with Dr. Joanne Diaz-Koegl, Licensed Marriage Family Therapist. She specializes in couples counseling, premarital counseling, loss & grief, individual and personal growth therapy/coaching and so much more. We asked her about the top issues that cause stress in relationships, how we can be better communicators (hint: it’s by being a better listener), and how to take care of our mental health with all the stress of the holidays. We know that speaking about mental health issues can be taboo in the latinx community, but the more we recognize the normalcy of having a healthy mind, the easier we can make the conversation.   For  full notes, visit http://supermamas.com like us on https://www.facebook.com/supermamaspodcast/ Double tap on https://www.instagram.com/_supermamas/   

This week, we sit down with Carmelita Ramirez-Sanchez, executive director of Boyle Heights Arts Conservatory in Los Angeles.

Carmelita inspired us so much with her love of the arts and showing the local youth that there are more careers than what you traditionally might learn about, especially because we know the hard work that goes into being a chef, running a business or starting your own podcast.
