Podcast appearances and mentions of alexa penavega

J.John speaks with Alexa PenaVega, an actress famous for her role in the Spy Kids films. Alexa shares about her journey of faith and talks about finding healing from an eating disorder, her marriage to Carlos and parenthood. She also shares about the heartbreaking loss of her baby, Indy.

Today we were starstruck because we sat down with two stars (who we now consider friends) Alexa and Carlos PenaVega! Alexa played Carmen Cortez in the hit film series, Spy Kids, and Carlos starred as Carlos Garcia on the Nickelodeon series Big Time Rush so it's safe to say they're a power couple and our inner-child was freaking out a little. What we love most about this couple is how authentic they are, even in an industry where being yourself and standing strong in your faith can sometimes cost you a job. This couple has been through so much and their unwavering peace, joy and love for one another is truly an inspiration. We could have talked to Alexa and Carlos all day, they are seriously the best.

Bonjour! This weeks episode talks about A Paris Proposal, starring Alexa Penavega and Nicholas Bishop. In this movie, Anna (Penavega) and Sebastian (Bishop) travel to Paris to land an ad account, but soon wind up in a tricky situation when the client mistakes them for a married couple. Overall, cute movie - it sticks to Hallmark's classic levels of predictability and charm while avoiding the ever-so-frustrating "miscommunication trope" (which we cleeearrrrly hate). Heads up, this is a chatty episode - especially when Taylor Swift is mentioned. So, if you want to skip to the movie review, jump to around 37 mins. As always, catch this movie and more at frndlytv.com. Next week we'll be reviewing A Picture of Her, which releases on March 25, 2023.

The girls are back (in town) to talk about Taking a Shot at Love, a 2021 Hallmark Channel movie starring Alexa PenaVega and Luke Macfarlane. A former professional dancer uses ballet to help an injured hockey star get back on the ice, and we absolutely loved this movie! We both loved the charm, the style, the chemistry, the acting, the storyline - you name it. Definitely give this one a watch for a feel-good storyline that is true to Hallmark style without being overly predictable or boring. This movie was the perfect dose of hygge (listen to learn all about it!), and we just think that perfectly encapsulates the vibe this month. The girls also dive into their "love-to-hate" show, Gilmore Girls (listen, we just don't like it - sorry not sorry), with more toxic character analyses. Make sure to tune in next week when we begin our journey with The Wedding Veil series on Hallmark Channel. You can watch all of these movies and more on frndlytv.com.

Have you grown up watching the film series Spy Kids, or have your kids? In this episode, I'm bringing Alexa PenaVega, who you may know as Carmen Cortez, in the hit movie Spy Kids. Alexa shares the things she faced in acting and how she stopped chasing after the world's desires to grow in her personal relationship with Jesus, which ultimately fulfilled her. I chatted with Alexa about the books she wrote with her husband Carlos, whom you may recognize in Nickelodeon's series Big Time Rush. We talked about her favorite part of being on Dancing With The Stars with Carlos, the partnership with Hallmark media, living on their boat between Florida and Hawaii, and serving at their local Salvation Army. The first book, "What If Love Is The Point: Living for Jesus In A Self-Consumed World," talks about the life of Alexa and Carlos and how they both met and grew in their faith. They have a YouTube channel together called La Vida PenaVega, and they have two sons, Ocean and Kingston, and one daughter, Rio. Their recent book called "Ocean's World: An Island Tale of Discovery and Adventure, is a children's book that takes the reader on a journey on the island of Hawaii. Along with the adorable story are some educational facts about what they encounter on their adventure, making it a fun learning experience for any young child in your life.

Most of us can recall times in our lives where we've felt lost, confused, or unsure of how to move forward. It can be easy to shy away from these moments—to hide them and put on a smile to pretend as if our road has always been an easy one. But what if instead of striving for perfection around every corner, we stop and lean into these uncomfortable moments? What would happen if we looked at our moments of feeling lost and vulnerable as opportunities to become closer to God? To strengthen our faith and use these stories as testimony? Our guests this week explore these questions as they share their stories of faith and healing. Carlos and Alexa PenaVega share the honest and vulnerable moments that strengthened their relationship with God and taught them the lessons that would inform the rest of their lives. Michael Phillips grew up in Baltimore and was told from an early age that he would not become the lawyer he dreamed to be. As administrators, teachers, and principals told him he would inevitably end up incarcerated, Michael fought a deficit narrative that hung over him for much of his young life.   Links, Products, and Resources Mentioned: Jesus Calling Podcast Jesus Calling Jesus Always Jesus Listens Past interview: Kristin Smedley Upcoming interview: Amy Kenny   Carlos and Alexa PenaVega Big Time Rush What If Love Is the Point?: Living for Jesus in a Self-Consumed World Michael Phillips T.D. Jakes Foundation Thurgood Marshall Perry Mason racketeering conspiracy Oral Roberts University  Maya Angelou  Wrong Lanes Have Right Turns   Interview Quotes: “I was really pursuing that deeper relationship with God. I grew up semi-Christian, but the craving that there was something deeper was there. And I just knew that I wanted to see God or experience God on that next level. I didn't want to have this surface level relationship with Him anymore.” - Alexa PenaVega “Whenever something's going on, we pray about it.” - Alexa PenaVega “It was just so cool to see God use our testimony on that level to really impact the world.” - Carlos PenaVega “When you jump into being somebody of faith or when you jump into Christianity, I feel like a lot of times it's painted as like your life is going to be so perfect after you become a Christian. And what actually happened for us was like life actually got way harder when we became Christians, but everything was more peaceful and everything made more sense to us, like, we actually felt more complete.” - Alexa PenaVega “From first grade on, that deficit narrative about what I could and could not do continued to be spoken over my life by certain adults, teachers, administrators in my school.” - Michael Phillips “When trauma goes unacknowledged, tragedy often goes uninterrupted.” - Michael Phillips “It took some time to become untethered from the things that I did as part of my identity. I was very loyal to my mistakes, and it took some time for me to realize those are just some things I did. That's not who I was, and I finally came to a place where I was tired enough of wrestling with all of that pain.” - Michael Phillips “I think with a deep focus on some of those things for children in our communities would completely change the game for our young people. And so instead of a culture that says, ‘What's wrong with you?' It will become a culture of ‘What happened to you?' Or, ‘How are you doing?'” - Michael Phillips “To say that children are at risk seems as if their expectation of who they can become or what they can accomplish will be nothing more than a failure. Right?

ABOUT ALEXA PENAVEGA, CARLOS PENAVEGA AND WHAT IF LOVE IS THE POINTCarlos PenaVega (Nickelodeon's Big Time Rush and member of boy band Big Time Rush) and Alexa PenaVega (Spy Kids, ABC Family's Ruby & The Rockits) will release their debut memoir "What If Love Is The Point?" on June 28 via HarperCollins. The title is currently available for preorder. During the course of their careers, the popular actors, along with their successes, faced many difficult challenges: Carlos was struggling with the influences of Hollywood and was reeling from a broken relationship. Alexa was healing from a divorce and an eating disorder she kept hidden. They felt lost and wondered, what's the point of it all?While overcoming the many financial, emotional, spiritual and marital challenges after the pair met and married, the two have countless TV and film appearances under their belt - including an influential season on "Dancing with the Stars," where they made history as the only married couple ever to compete against each other. Those appearances in Season 21, which are powerfully chronicled by Alexa, brought the two to a whole new national audience, and gave them weekly opportunities to witness about their faith and talk about marriage as a sacred commitment people should still believe in, led thousands of people of all ages to write in, thanking them for taking a bold stance and even, in some cases, helping reignite the marriages of some viewers. With all of the buzz around them, Alexa and Carlos had offers to do a reality show, but they wanted to steer clear of that world because they felt a heartfelt inspirational book would be the ideal way to chronicle their amazing lives.Says the couple: "We wanted to talk about it all. We wanted to write about all the junk, the 'norms' in society that aren't good for us, how to navigate friendships, what it's like becoming a parent, and how we learned to draw healthy boundaries at work. But we mainly want to ask, 'What's the point? What's the point of all of this living?'" They freely admit that as 30-something human beings, working performers, husband and wife, and now parents of young children, life is not easy - and staying committed to each other and their faith is often difficult and stressful despite the love and beauty at the center of their relationship. It's a choice that they must make daily."What If Love Is the Point?" is the PenaVegas' shared story about the true joy they've experienced and the insights that have changed their lives, showing how:. Putting faith at the center has helped them in their marriage, their parenting, and even their career choices.. Giving to others, instead of focusing on themselves, brought real fulfillment.. Loving unconditionally and living selflessly helped them find each other--and in the process, discovering who they really were.Filled with open, honest, and vulnerable discussions, "What If Love Is the Point?" provides insight and guidance for others who may be facing similar challenges, helping them feel less alone and like someone has their back. Says Alexa, "Choosing to be consistent is what takes the fear out of our life. We no longer worry about what people think about us on social media. If we mess up, we own up to it and apologize for it. We don't just show perfect moments. Writing this book was a wonderful, awesome and healing way to talk about the many things that have gone on in our lives up till now."
