On episode 43 of the Vida With Christie Podcast, I provided a quick life update and shared some exciting summer plans. I also touched upon an upcoming episode wich will be on best practices which I apply for prioritizing my life as an ambitious mama while lives among the hustle and bustle of living her dreams every single day. I had the pleasure of speaking with Gilza Fort Martinez, a licensed marriage and family therapist and CEO of Resolution Counselling Center in Miami, Florida. As a Latina therapist, we had an incredible conversation about how the various elements of our culture influence and impact the difference aspects of our motherhood experiences. From the challenges of prioritizing self care to the weight we carry as mothers and daughters, Gilza offered insight on from the Latina perspective proving the importance of matching with a therapist who understands you.

Leslie shares her medicine by offering coaching, workshops, support, and advocacy for Latinx/Chicanx families locally, nationally, and internationally both in-person and online via the Latinx Parenting organization.

Trigger Warning: This episode contains mentions of violence, suicide, and self harm. Listen with care! In this episode, I welcome Amy Lee, birth worker and founder of Musa Mama Apothecary. She is a Birth Anarchist mama to five Freebirthed babies. She is a defender of birthing bodies and physiological birth and is grateful + honored to guide families during the sacred journey of labor & birth as well as sanhüjori, the traditional indigenous Korean postpartum practice of honoring and caring for the new umma. A creatrix through and through, her nearly 17 years of being an industry professional in Natural/Organic Foods & Products has benefited many clients and customers as she uses her ever expanding knowledge base to create effective products and give trusted counsel for individuals and families. Main Topics Discussed: *How to conquer imposter syndrome *Inhabiting your truest self without shame while being mindful at the same time *Why should not hide your authentic self even if your highest self is “not for everyone” Why do you call yourself a “birth anarchist”? Amy: I do not work with everyone. I am not for everyone. I work with people who really need that reminder to tap in and know that they are not the sum of their abuse, their trauma, and everything else that they have had to do to survive. We're freaking badasses: We birth human beings. We keep lineages going. I'm just here to remind moms that I'm not the only warrior. All of our ancestors are warriors because they've all gone through attempts at colonization, and they've endured all that pain to become badasses. What other choice do I have but to take that on? What is impostor syndrome? Amy: Impostor syndrome is figuring out who you are in the world. A lot of us feel impostor syndrome, especially us immigrants, indigenous folks, and people of color—the global majority: We're in a space where we don't belong. We're trying to figure out if we meet the requirements to belong here. We're scared of being found out. A lot of the time, it has to do with our upbringing. We're either supported growing up, or we're forced into studying or working in something that we didn't want to for the sake of bettering our family. Our generation finally has the luxury to prioritize our mental health, self-care, and filling our own cups. We have serious impostor syndrome because our ancestors never had these opportunities. How do you fight impostor syndrome? What do you put your energy into instead? Amy: I put my energy into fine-tuning on just being myself. I have five kids. I homeschool. I don't have the energy. I just want to be myself. That may be the reason I had impostor syndrome as a birth worker: I'm a very rebellious person. I literally believe that birth is physiological. I'm not just saying I trust the body and the process. I really know that this is how shit works if you just let the body do its thing. How do you embody your highest self? Amy: What I should be doing to embody my highest self is self-discipline. I'm lacking that a lot. Self-discipline is an action towards betterment of self. I embody my highest self when I am doing the work to become a better version of myself. It's never-ending because I'm always striving to be a better version of myself, even if that means taking a million steps backwards just to take the right step forward for my growth.

Chances are you've likely heard about the new trend in parenting- gentle parenting. While it may sound permissive or ineffective, if you really look into it, it's the natural response to the inherent violence that has been culturally accepted in previous generations. In the latest episode of The Self-Love Fix Podcast I have a chance to talk with Leslie of LatinX parenting and go over: Why violence is culturally accepted in parenting The tenants of gentle parenting Respect > fear Blind obedience through fear is not helping our children learn how to process difficult emotions, and it is a breeding ground for future emotional issues and resentments. It can be hard to find other ways when we were most likely brought up by parents who never modeled apologizing for the sake of repair or connection- the emphasis was on obedience at all costs. Our parents wanted to win, no matter how it ultimately affected us as people, and our relationship with them. We don't need to be perfect all the time to raise thoughtful and compassionate children; we simply have to always try and honor the person they are becoming while understanding that when we “lose it”, it's actually a wonderful opportunity to show them accountability.

In this episode, I welcome clinical psychologist Michael Martinez. Dr. Michael Martinez is a gay Latinx father of three and psychologist. He earned his Doctor of Clinical Psychology degree with a focus on Community Psychology at the University of La Verne. His graduate program helped him view his clients as a product of their environment and how their environment contributes to their mental health. Michael has dedicated his academic and professional career to work with many types of minority groups (LGBTQ*, Latinx, Asian Americans, African Americans, economically disadvantaged people, and unhoused people). Ultimately, Michael views his clients as their own experts and is dedicated to helping his clients find balance, control and a voice in their everyday lives. Main Topics Discussed: How living in a single-parent household influenced Michael as a parent and partner How to heal your core wounds by simply being present What is your “highest self” and how can you fully live out your potential What is alive for you right now? Right now the major focus for me has been my own healing journey of repairing generational trauma, and also trying to be the best parent partner that I can be and trying to be as present as I can be as well. What does presence look like for you? Presence means that there is not only just joy, but also the willingness to do things like this: have these difficult conversations, as well as the joy that comes with living life and enjoying life that I feel really makes up adulthood. Tell us about your relationship and your family now and how your upbringing has influenced how you are as a parent and a partner. I grew up outside the traditional makeup of a family. My grandma was a primary caregiver. She was there after school cooking, cleaning, doing laundry. I also tend to kind of take up more of the cooking, more of the laundry, more of the cleaning up around the house. Of course not to say that my husband doesn't help out, but I think I tend to kind of take those on a little bit more. Do you have a chosen family who helped you become who you are today? Throughout my college years I had that steadfast group of friends. My best friend who I've known since high school, we always joke that she didn't go to college with me to do classes. She partied with us. She's been an integral part of my life and, for her in particular, I think she's really been there to help me in my coming out process and helping me make sense of my sexuality. I have to give my family credit because I think they really come from the stance of understanding that when you become an adult, you decide who you want to spend your time with. How have you healed your core wounds? Presence. Taking the time to reconnect with my family is a big one. Another was becoming more present in my body and moving and stretching and just doing something, because I think it's so true that trauma is stored in your body. How has your upbringing influenced your work as a clinical psychologist? I always tend to kind of go back to figure out those childhood roots and understand those and to kind of do that inner child work cause that's what's needed. And I think the one thing I got right was understanding that caregivers are the foundation to the rest of relationships for the rest of your life.

In this episode, I welcome Cynthia Perez, a first generation Chicana therapist based in Los Angeles, CA. Cynthia is a mother of 3, an author, and a clinical supervisor for LCSWs in a clinic setting. In 2021, After realizing she had workplace burnout, Cynthia left healthcare to start her private practice, Rooted in Reflection, LLC. Cynthia created 4 virtual groups in the Covid-19 Pandemic to address the real time need for collective healing. From Storytelling Workshops, Shame Resiliency Trainings, to a 10-hour workshop on Reparenting, Cynthia has been honored to create spaces that she has only dreamed of holding and people showing up every week! Main Topics Discussed: Changing the name of shame How tending to the needs of your inner child leads to non-violent parenting Developing maturity by honoring your inner teen How gender constructs get in the way of your parenting potential What are you up to nowadays? Cynthia: I left my full-time healthcare job, which broke such a mold for me. I started my own business, where I work part-time. Now, I can't stop dreaming. I can't go back to it anymore. It's all systems. It's more of the same. So, I have a happy problem. I want to incorporate CRT into my work now to offer historical information on communities of color but applying it to mental health, so we can see ourselves in the historical context and how that looks now in our generational problems. So, I'm now in that gap. What do you love about what you do? Cynthia: If you asked me that last year, I wouldn't know what to say. I really thought I was going to give up mental health. It sounds so cliché, but I had to reach an epiphany to find what I really love to do. I had to discover my calling and deliver it to the people that want to receive it that are on this journey, too, and do it in a way that honors them. I love that I can now be my authentic self, and I love having honest, meaningful conversations. I get to do that in the spaces that I create. When I met you, we were both participants of the Latinx Parenting series. At that point, where were you on your journey? Cynthia: I always caught myself yelling at my kids and was having a tough time overcoming that impulse. I loved being with the community because it was such a beautiful place to bring up my feelings. I was actually triggered when I saw you with my mom, not because I had anything against you, but because I thought I could never bring my own mom to that class. I thought she would make me feel worse if I asked. I grew up in a violent home; so, this was an opportunity to look at my inner child. What was it like for you to implement that work into your family life? Cynthia: It's been really hard. When I was there, it was so powerful and palpable; and now that I'm back home, I have to give myself a grace period because it's so tempting to go back to the way it was before. I also had to honor my inner teen to teach myself to slow down and scale back those big adult expectations. As we know, gender is not a binary, and we can embody all of these energies—the masculine and the feminine—as we grow as parents. Cynthia: Gender constructs has been another big one for me. Gender constructs oppress everybody. We don't even realize the depths of it. This was a subconscious breakthrough I had to have. I had to stop caring about what people think, focus on my inner child, and embrace that I'm probably gender-fluid. I needed to give myself the freedom to choose.

On this week's episode we chat with Leslie Priscilla of Latinx Parenting about "Decolonized Parenting" and the importance of reparenting yourself.
Leslie Priscilla Arreola-Hillebrand, founder of Latinx Parenting, joins Janet to discuss how the challenges parents face as products of our upbringing can make respectful, non-punitive parenting more difficult to achieve. Leslie shares how her experiences as an early childhood professional started her on a journey of self-reflection and healing, which then inspired her to create trauma informed programs to support others to learn to reparent their inner child, break intergenerational cycles, and become the parents they wish to be.

In today's episode we chat with a parent coach regarding reparenting ourselves so we can be better parents for our children. This takes us reflecting on the messages we received as children and how we either continue to pass those messages along or break the cycle. We talk about how children act in ways to get their needs met and often what triggers us are opportunities for healing. It begins with us, reflecting and learning to soothe so we can pass these skills to our children. We can learn so much from our children but we need to take the time to reflect and remain attuned to ourselves and our kids. It is not about blaming or shaming our parents but acknowledging that we all have childhood wounds that may require us to reparent ourselves so that we can break the cycle. Leslie Priscilla also touches on her mission to end chancla culture buy educating parents so that we do not continue to oppress and exert control over our children.

At the top of this episode, I share the pre-order status for my book, Raising Free People: Unschooling as Liberation and Healing Work! If you enjoy this podcast, this is your kinda reading party right here. Pre-order your copy today.In this second deschooling release party session, we will be sharing thoughts with college professor and unschooler mother of five, Kelly Limes Taylor about the effects of our current times on all institutions, schooling and leadership issues being among the plights that we are urgently being called, as a society to face.Kelly invites us to consider the ways that our own patterns in life are often conduits for deeply valuable lessons. She shares her experience as a single mom, moving from a metropolitan area to a small town, moving on from divorce, and holding space, as an educator, for students who are feeling overwhelmed by the sudden shift in how education, outside of conventional school context, is being handled today. Kelly also speaks to the relevance of naming our failed structures, and how these structures, built on a settler-colonial framework, were not sustainable to begin with, and yet are reinforced through conventional schooling. Indeed, what learning actually is, and how it happens is not seen as a human approach, does not work in a reciprocal way, and we can’t limit that to academics, we are talking about connection of the whole self, not just the information-gathering self. Here’s an opportunity to relearn and reinventate; to observe all the ways the structures we’ve held on to are crumbling; here’s an invitation to notice a space to pivot and to heal.

Season 3 Episode 5: Chicana M(other)work Interviews Latinx Parenting by Chicana Motherwork
This week, we continue with the series, Parenting Decentering Whiteness. We are talking about what it means to raise free people with Akilah Richards. And, returning as my co-host is Leslie Arreola Hillenbrand of Latinx Parenting. Akilah Richards is a writer, unschooling organizer, and host of the Raising Free People podcast. In this episode, she shares why she decided to embark on the unschooling journey, what it means to trust our children, and how our children deserve to always be themselves. We have so much to learn from Akilah and her community. I'm honored to have her as our guest! Show Highlights: How to strike a balance when children are all of a sudden put into a situation where they are no longer going to school. Thoughts on how to become a better listener to our children What it means to trust our children truly and what it looks like in the context of parenting We don't need to be the resource. Instead, be good at listening and asking the questions. Our parents didn't mean respect. They meant obedience. It's easy to see how some of us are continuing those cycles of oppression. Akilah's shares her experience as a person and family of color in the unschooling space. We have a brief discussion on whitewashing and how it is in all kinds of forms because whether it's in your home or not when you step out into a classroom, you are also subjected to that in a different format, even when it's with amazing teachers.

This episode is a podcast within a podcast, Parenting for Liberation founder, Trina Greene Brown, was interviewed by Cindy Wang Brandt of Parenting Forward and Leslie Arreola Hillenbrand of Latinx Parenting to discuss "parenting de-centering whiteness." Trina shared about Parenting for Liberation and the work to bring parents together to look at the ways the systems have oppressed us historically and current ongoing oppression, and how can we heal them. We also discuss parenting during the COVID-19 pandemic as Black, Indigenous, or People of Color.
This week we discuss Parenting for Liberation and the work Trina Greene Brown is doing within her organization for the Black community. As we continue the series, Parenting Decentering Whiteness, we explore what it means to be a Black parent and raising a Black child in today's world. Leslie Arreola Hillenbrand, the founder of Latinx Parenting, re-joins me as my co-host. We welcome Trina Greene Brown to the show. Trina is a mother, activist, and founder of Parenting for Liberation. Parenting for Liberation believes in the power of Black parents to conceive, birth, and nurture liberation for the future. Show Highlights: How Parenting for Liberation works to challenge notions of what it means to be a Black child As parents, as children, and as a family, we must ensure we are resilient, bold, proud, and joyful as Black folks. Parenting for Liberation tries to bring parents together to look at the ways the systems have oppressed us historically, current ongoing oppression, and how can we heal them Trina discusses the delicate balance between the positive and the negative parts of this her work It takes many different people in different movements to see how that contributes to the broader movement. A challenge to those who don't identify as parents of color because we could potentially interrupt the cycles of violence that impact communities of color at the hands and leadership of non-communities of color. We have a conversation about spanking and why gentle parenting, not spanking your children, is something we strive to do. We explore why white parents should be talking about the intersection of oppression, slavery, colonization, and its impacts on communities of color and the way we parent.

I am excited to bring you my next series, Parenting Decentering Whiteness. This series features interviews with parenting influencers of color, people challenging authoritarian parenting paradigms while contending with whiteness. Joining me to co-host this special series is Leslie Arreola Hillenbrand, co-founder of Latinx Parenting. If you are a person of color listening to the series, I hope you'll find resonance and support as you listen in on how some of us are managing, navigating, and being in the arena. If you are a white person, I hope you will learn from our perspectives, help to dismantle white supremacy in parenting spaces, and become more inclusive of voices that are not white. The parenting influencers featured in this series are the people who are helping guide you to shape the next generation. Show Highlights: The default narrative and face of what we see is very white, but parenting influencers of color do exist The best way to combat the fact that white culture is not universal is through the power of story Leslie's organization Latinx Parenting is an organization that offers nonviolent parenting or parenting with nonviolence Parenting influences of color contend with whether we create for an audience of people of color or the white audience. And if it's both how to navigate that complexity. Why we think it's important to talk about parenting decentering whiteness and what it means A white parenting world is not factual, and it's not true. When we are talking about parenting, truth is so crucial to a child's identity.

In this episode we talk with Leslie Arreola Hillenbrand and Lizeth Toscano of Latinx Parenting. Our conversation brought up so many topics including generational trauma, mother wounds, gender roles and more. We shared with our guests what their work has helped us to heal, create more conscious approaches with our children and our own parents that take into consideration our cultural values and the systemic power dynamics at play.Our main takeaway from our conversation: Parenting with nonviolence creates a modality by which we can begin to see children as full human beings that need our love, compassion and guidance to see their full potential as individuals and equals. As Lizeth points out parenting models rooted in domination and violence come from colonization, “they don’t come from inherent goodness of our ancestry. Peaceful parenting was ours at one point. Because of slavery and racism our parents had to adapt to a cruel and hard world, and to make good children was to obey. [They thought] if I did not discipline my child, then the master was going to discipline my child.” In other words, domination was normalized through multiple colonial power constructs like racism, patriarchy, gender binaries as well as through the idea of the parent child relationship as hierarchical in nature. Domination is first normalized in the home between parent and child often using violence and abuse so that all other power dynamics rely on similar violent approaches in order to exhibit authority and maintain power. If we truly want to dismantle all structures of oppression, we must begin in the home by re-imagining the parent/child dynamic outside a paradigm of domination.IG: @latinxparentinglatinxparenting.org
