Summer has barely started and it’s already got me running in a million directions.
Between the repeated and unrelenting ICE brutality, some personal challenges, the responsibility of growing and nurturing a community while also creating and executing a virtual podcasting summit for its benefit AND trying to lock down a TEDx event…
It’s a LOT.
As you can imagine, this is completely and utterly unsustainable—which is the point. That’s how our government wants us to feel: exhausted and depleted, so we give up.
Surrender.
I refuse to succumb to misery. But I do need some sort of relief.
So I’ve made a tough decision.
At the end of this month, I’m pressing pause on La Vida Más Chévere. For how long? No se.
I hope to have a few more mini “you may also like” style episodes in October highlighting our summit speakers, but beyond that, I can’t say.
There are still 2 more episodes this month, as part of Childfree Latina Summer. That was originally going to be a 6-episode series but I’m cutting it down to 5.
I appreciate all of you who have supported this tiny indie podcast along the way, whether by listening or simply reading these little messages. A particularly tight and consensual hug to those of you who even given monetary support, whether here on Substack or through LIP community events.
Every single dollar goes to fund the LIP community, including the virtual summit. If you’re interested in becoming a fiscal sponsor of our second annual conference, check out our sponsorship offers.

But we’re not done YET!
Tomorrow you’ll get to enjoy a behind-the-scenes video replay from the current episode For Love or Clients with Childfree Latina Mafe Salazar. Mafe and I talked a little bit more about those damn bingos and dating while childfree.
Stay tuned!!
And thank you again.
