In this episode of the Chicana & Latina Moms Podcast, host Amapola Ramirez MS. MSW dives into the powerful and often overlooked topic of empathy regulation. As Latinas, many of us were raised with values like familismo putting family first — and marianismo — the expectation to always nurture, sacrifice, and care for others before ourselves. While these cultural strengths have made us resilient, they can also leave us emotionally drained when we carry everyone else’s struggles on our shoulders.So how do we stay compassionate without becoming overwhelmed? How do we show up with corazón for our families, our children, and our comunidad, while still protecting our peace? That’s where empathy regulation comes in.✨ In this conversation, we explore:What empathy regulation really means and why it matters for Latina moms.How cultural values both strengthen and challenge our ability to set emotional boundaries.Everyday examples of empathy regulation in parenting, family dynamics, and community work.Practical tools to practice empathy regulation, like breathing, grounding, cultural rituals, and affirmations in Spanglish.How to transform empathy from something that drains us into something that empowers us.This episode is a reminder that taking care of yourself is not selfish t’s an act of love. By regulating our empathy, we create more patience, presence, and connection with the people who matter most.💬 Favorite takeaway: “Cuidar de mí es cuidar de mi familia. My empathy is a gift, not a burden.”If you’ve ever felt like you absorb too much of other people’s pain or lose yourself in your role as mamá, hermana, or hija, this episode will give you tools and encouragement to reclaim your emotional balance.📌 Disclaimer: This episode is for educational purposes only.

In this episode, we explore what it means to live a slow and intentional life as a Latina. So many of us were raised in environments that praised hustle, sacrifice, and putting others first.

Let this be a reminder that we are allowed to pause, breathe, and choose a life rooted in peace, not pressure.

I am Criss Madrigal, a proud Californian by birth and a person deeply connected to my Mexican roots. Having spent a significant portion of my childhood in Mexico, I cherish the invaluable experiences and immersion in my vibrant culture that it provided. I am blessed to be married to an incredibly supportive partner, whose unwavering presence and encouragement is a gift. In 2009, my heartfelt wish was granted, and I was given the incredible gift of motherhood to a remarkable boy. Two years later, in 2011, our family was blessed with the arrival of identical twin girls, bringing us even closer together. As a united and devoted family unit, we have embarked on a profound journey of love, care, and support, embracing the unique needs of each of our children with unwavering dedication. Driven by a profound desire to make a meaningful impact in the lives of others, I wholeheartedly pursued my passion and became a certified life and mindset coach. Alongside my coaching practice, I am also a corporate mom and human resources professional, dedicating the past 18 years of my career to a Fortune 500 organization. With a profound passion for empowering women, my purpose is to facilitate transformative journeys that encompass the mind, heart, and body. I am dedicated to guiding women towards a harmonious transformation that brings peace, love, and abundance into their lives. By helping them break through self-imposed barriers, such as mom guilt, overwhelm, and burnout, I assist them in attaining a daily state of clarity, balance, and confidence. Through prioritizing their own well-being, they are empowered to uncover their true purpose and achieve their desired goals in life. My mission is to empower women worldwide by reminding them of their innate capacity for greatness and success. I firmly believe that the key to unlocking these achievements lies within each and every woman. Through my work, I strive to ignite the inner fire and unleash the boundless potential that resides within them, inspiring women to recognize their own power and achieve extraordinary heights.

My name is Sandra Nunez, I am a first-gen Mexicana who recently graduated with her Bachelor's in Sociology. I am part of the 3% of former foster youth that made it to college, and I am proud of my educational journey and the many doors it has opened for me, but more so the doors I opened by sharing my story. I quickly noticed that "the invite to have a seat at the table" wasn't coming, so I decided to begin using my platform to talk about education and empowerment. We must be the ones to create these spaces for ourselves as well as those we are paving the way for. Education has changed my life in so many ways for example increased confidence, gained knowledge, the ability to network, I feel empowered by those who believe in me, and I learned how powerful my story truly is. Coming from a world where education was never talked about, I am blessed that I have been able to continue my journey and create a healthy cycle for my kids, I changed the narrative for my family, and that’s a big deal. My passion is spreading empowerment and how education can be a transformative experience. Many will say “it is a waste of time,” but many more will say it has helped them flourish into cycle breakers, and we are contributing to the much-needed representation in academia. See, we’re not just doing it for us were doing it for the many others that don’t feel “they have what it takes” or “feel like they do not belong”. You belong, we belong, we all belong, college is a possibility. Links of your social media platforms: @educatedchingona @chingonaology.

Fast forward to today, she is married, has 3 daughters, and two glamsons (she’s too young to have any “grand” children).

Marisol is a successful mother wife and entrepreneur. At the age of 17 she decided to have my daughter and even though she knew I’d struggle, Marisol figured she was not alone.

My name is Patty Cuevas. I have a Master’s degree in Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Azusa Pacific University. I am NOT a therapist.— though I’m working on it  I am a Christian life coach, momma bear and wife located in Texas (relocated from Southern California). I am passionate about speaking about all things mental health, particularly grief, loss, abandonment, feeling left behind in life and starting over. My Christian faith is intertwined with who I am and my love for mental health. I have a heart for women, especially mommas, who think it’s too late to start, restart or finish their life goals. Having experienced two deep losses in my life, pivoting in the midst of loss was not only a challenge, but overwhelming. The effects of loss, grief and abandonment can be long-lasting. I invite women listeners to find community, be an active participant in their own lives and challenge them to let go of the things that no longer serve them in their purpose.
