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

REPLAY: You’re Not Failing — You’re Mothering
That little voice in your head telling you you’re doing it all wrong? Yep — that’s mom guilt, and she is LOUD. From pregnancy to breastfeeding, work, screen time, yelling, traveling without your kids, missing school events, and everything in between… we’re talking about all of it.
In this replay episode, we get real about the guilt we carry as moms, the impossible expectations, and why perfection is not the goal — presence is. If you’ve ever gone to bed replaying the day in your head or felt like you’re never doing “enough,” this one’s for you.
A reminder before our next new episode drops: you’re not failing — you’re showing up.
✨ Disclaimer: We’re not therapists or relationship experts—just two moms sharing real talk, real laughs, and real-life parenting moments.
