[00:00:00] Paulette: Buen día, mi gente, and welcome back to La Vida Más Chévere de Childfree Latinas. I’m Paulette Erato. I’m here to be your childfree Latina hostess. I’m here today to tell you this show’s gonna go on hiatus for a little bit, so you’re not gonna hear my voice in your ears with new stuff for a little while.
[00:00:18] But I do invite you to go check out the back catalog and tell me what you think of that. However, for the next episode, I’ve got a couple ideas, and I’d love to hear from you. Tell me what it is you wanna hear. We can talk about what it’s like when your friends start having babies, if that’s ever happened to you.
[00:00:38] Let’s talk about it. W- what are our feelings around that? Can we name them? So that’s one idea. The second idea is, Nena, you need therapy . Like, honey, please go get some therapy. I came up with that one while I was sitting at the Yes Mujer You Can event that Wendy Amara put on recently. So that’s number two.
[00:01:03] One is all about our childfree feels when people in our orbit start having kids, and two is, Nena, you need therapy, which is basically a continuation of the last episode, Trickle Down Pendejadas. You tell me what you need. Here’s how you’re going to vote. You’re gonna text me from your phone, the one you’re listening to this episode on right now.
[00:01:24] There’s always a link in the show notes for you to hit, and that opens up a texting app, and you send me a text. It’s that easy. You know how to text, right? Right, because you live in the 21st century. So tell me which one it is you wanna hear. Childfree feelings or talking about therapy. Eventually, we’re going to do both.
[00:01:43] You just tell me which one’s next, okay? So like I mentioned, we’re gonna be on hiatus for a little while because the Latinas in Podcasting Summit is coming up in October, and that takes up all of my time. But we’ll come back with the one that you vote on. Once again, text me and tell me, are we doing a childfree feelings episode, or are we doing a girl, you need therapy episode?
[00:02:06] It’s up to you. Muchisimas gracias, and that’s a burrito!
