113. Annual Check-In with My Husband on Parenting, Partnership, and Breaking Patterns

In this episode, I sit down with my husband Alex Cuevas for our annual conversation about our parenting journey. We discuss the challenges and triumphs of raising our two young toddlers in a one-bedroom apartment, our house-hacking journey to build generational wealth, and how we're working to break generational patterns in our parenting approach. This raw and honest conversation explores parenthood without the traditional "village" and the intentional choices we're making as first-generation Latino parents.
