Welcome to Unbreakable Latina.

Hi guys, welcome back to Unbreakable Latina.

This is your host Melina. I hope you're having an amazing day, whatever day you're listening to this on. If you're watching on YouTube, thank you so much for watching. I really appreciate it. I am having a great week. Although a couple minutes ago, I deleted the entire podcast episode today that I recorded. And I had already

finished. I was about to edit, but my impatientness got to me and I thought I had the correct

video uploaded to the computer, which I did in and I deleted it it and here we are recording again.

But you know what?

La'i let's let's chat ganas.

This week I actually logged into Spotify for podcasters and I got this alert saying,

congratulations, your podcast is number 42 on the top charts of society and culture podcasts.

And this has happened before, but never this high. I think last time it was like number 70

something. I don't even remember, to be honest. It's been a while. But I just want to say thank you

for listening because of you guys. My podcast is hitting the charts and people are are noticing it so it makes me really happy and that i am taking up space as a latina podcaster because for a long

time i used to listen to podcasts but i could never relate to any of the podcasts that i would listen to

so that is the whole reason why i created this. I want to talk about

things that usually are not talked about. And I've been very vulnerable with you guys. And sometimes

I catch myself like, oh my gosh, like it just told the whole world, like all my trauma.

But, you know, me telling my story is helping others not feel alone. And that makes me happy because I

never had anyone that made me feel like I wasn't alone growing up where I felt like I was the only

person going through all these things, like with my dad, with my family, like going to college

and not having that experience that everybody like

tends to glamorize and have and I just had a different way of growing up and I felt like I was the

only one of it apparently a lot of us can relate so it makes me happy I appreciate you guys
