Much like the radio shows of yesteryear, podcasts give us something to keep us company during while we work and when we have our hands full with household chores. The rising popularity of podcasts and now the growing number of Latinx podcasts means we have another space for stories from people of color. When it comes to the Latinx experience, our stories are varied and complex and there are podcasts for different topics including mental health and identity and even Latina motherhood.

Being a mom can be an isolating and sometimes even lonely experience, and a lot of us end up turning to books, blogs and online groups for camaraderie, advice and even to find supportive friendships. These podcasts by Latina moms can also provide all of that and we wanted to highlight some of our favorites that we think you’ll enjoy.

We love the concept of the Latina Mom Legacy Podcast which was started by Colombian-American mamá Janny Perez, who also happens to design some of our favorite empowering shirts and bags for her company Mi Legasi. In each episode, Janny interviews different Latinas to discuss topics like motherhood, raising bicultural children and Latinx traditions. The podcast is mostly presented in Spanglish and is intended for a global audience, which means it offers a variety of perspectives and experiences.

At less than a year old, the Latina Money Moms Podcast is relatively new and there aren’t a ton of episodes but what’s there is very valuable and educational.

The name alone is enough to make us tune into the El Salon Chronicles podcast hosted by three first generation Dominicanas. They’re all from New York and promise to deliver their content “unfiltered,” which we love. Moms do not have time for deciphering implied messages, we need straightforward, honest conversations, which is exactly what this podcast offers up when it comes to everything from sex and relationships to current events.wp_*posts

As a Mutha

On the As a Mutha podcast, Latina moms Jannira and Sofia, who’ve been best friends since college, talk all things motherhood and what it takes to “make it” in life as Latinas. The work to help inspire and encourage other moms striving to achieve their goals as women and mothers. Episodes cover everything from the immigrant experience to mental health.wp_*posts

3 Righteous Mamas

The podcast 3 Righteous Mamas is a bit different than the other podcasts on this list because it’s hosted by three different American moms  who identify as a Latina, Muslim, and queer. The three hosts met after the 2016 presidential election and set about using their experiences to find ways to “make the world a better place for all of our kids.” On the podcast, they interview a slew of interesting guests representing various fields from the arts to science, and discuss many of the questions and challenges facing moms today.wp_*posts

Latina Docs Podcast

The Latina Docs podcast is really niche, but it’s one that can be truly helpful for Latina physicians looking for advice, connection and community. Latina medical doctors are under-represented  in the U.S. with only 5.8 percent of all physicians in the country including men and women, identifying as Hispanic. Hosts and Latina moms Dr. Ursula Lang and Dr. Vanessa Calderón are committed to helping Latina physicians and those studying to be physicians grow both personally and professionally.wp_*posts
