Just like the conference!
PSC Mami
Description: PSC Mami: Stories at the intersection of PSC and parenthood. You are diagnosed with a rare, incurable disease. You are young. You had a vision for your future. You wanted kids. But can you? As a parent you want the best for your kids, but then they are diagnosed with PSC, what does their future hold? People who have been there talk about how a diagnosis of Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis, a rare autoimmune disease, reshaped their vision of their lives and parenthood.
Episode recommendation: Although the podcast centers around parents and children with PSC, Jessica decides to not have children and has no regrets struck me since the guest opted to remain childless. With no regrets! We love that for her.
💻Stay tuned: Mónika’s L.I.P. session is unlike most of the others, but it’s probably one of the most powerful. A Mi Manera: Defining Your Own Success in Podcasting is, like our next speaker below Steph might say, a whole damn vibe! Mónika and I are simpatico on success metrics.
Our Latina Lens
Description: Who is your favorite Latina or Latine photographer? Latina/e photographers have been contributing to the visual narrative of the United States for over a hundred years. These stories are rarely known. Our Latina Lens Podcast, hosted by Monika Aldarondo, elevates the work and stories of accomplished US-based Latina/e photographers across genres. Each photographer will be featured in two episodes. The first episode will explore their creative process and journey with photography. In a second episode, photographers delve deep into their most significant images. They share the political, historical, and/or personal context of the creation of their images and why, out of their archive of thousands of photos, they chose these photographs as their most significant.
Episode recommendation: The podcast is on hiatus but the last episode featured LA-based photographer Nalani Hernandez-Melo who starts off with a resonating quote: “you’ve been in certain rooms that people from your culture, your gender have not been in so don’t take that for granted and don’t keep it to yourself.” Which is the entire ethos of Latinas In Podcasting!
💻Stay tuned: As a testament to the breadth and versatility that podcasting provides, this podcast is also helmed by Mónika Aldarondo! Which is another reason to catch her talking success metrics at our event.

Episode recommendation: I met Steph when she put out a call for Latine speakers, not realizing she was a podcast host, too! Turns out she’s the friend we all need to push us outside our comfort zone, especially as Latinas. Check out EP 208 - The World Needs People Who Look Like You.
💻Stay tuned: Steph’s L.I.P. session is about one of the big 3 questions people always ask: how to get more downloads/grow the show/find a larger audience. Well, she’s got the answer!
