This week’s episode takes you on a journey from powerful historical fiction to deep conversations about love, boundaries, and raising kids in today’s world.

We kick things off with a heartfelt book chat, featuring a five-star review of The Four Winds and The Things We Do for Love by Kristin Hannah. Mayra shares how these stories sparked a meaningful connection with an older friend who lived through the Great Depression, reminding us how books can bridge generations.

From there, we open up about life’s big questions:

💔 Would we get married again after divorce or loss?

⚠️ Is yelling ever normal in a relationship?

👽 Do aliens exist? (Yes, we went there!)

🚨 And how do we really feel about police officers returning to high school campuses and the controversial decision to move 7th and 8th graders into high schools?

We also talk about the fears we carry as moms navigating the school system, especially with rising violence and changes in our local schools. It’s raw, honest, and so needed.

And we’re excited to introduce something new:

✨ A listener spotlight segment!
