Mama's Playground
We’re two Spanglish-speaking moms in our 40s, figuring out motherhood, life, and everything in between. Think of us as your girlfriends on the playground—laughing, venting, and keeping it real about the joys (and chaos) of parenting, relationships, mental health, and finding balance.
We love connecting with people from all cultures, perspectives, and walks of life, and we believe every story has something to teach us. Some days we nail it, most days we don’t—but we’re all in this together.
So grab your cafecito, pull up a swing, and join us as we talk about the beautiful, messy, hilarious journey of life and motherhood. 💕
We’d love to hear from you—send us your feedback, stories, or episode ideas. See you at the playground!
✨ Be Happy,
Darlene & Monica
