Super Mamás

Cynthia Carrasco joins us this week to share some of her own divorce experience, and what other women should know if they’re thinking about leaving their own marriage. Cynthia is a first-generation college and law school graduate and an attorney who has worked in juvenile defense, immigration, family law, and civil rights. She also has experience going through her own journey with divorce. Everyone deserves to feel safe and healthy in their relationships, and Cynthia hope that sharing her own divorce story can help other women feel empowered to stand up for themselves. Divorce is still surrounded by stigma in the Latino community, but we hope that conversations like this one with Cynthia can help break the stigma.    If you or someone you know are struggle with domestic violence or considering divorce, Cynthia has provided resources at the links below:    California Courts Self-Help    National Domestic Violence Hotline    Rainbow Services    Super Mamás  IG: @_supermamas  Facebook: Super Mamás  Twitter: @_supermamas   Website: http://supermamas.com/    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.

The situation in LA is changing day to day but we wanted to take a moment to share how we are feeling and what people can do to show their support to the communities fighting for their rights in Los Angels. None of us are okay right now, and that is okay. Call your friends, call your loved ones, do what you can to take action and make a difference. If you think you might be at risk, know your rights and make sure you have a plan.   Super Mamás  IG: @_supermamas  Facebook: Super Mamás  Twitter: @_supermamas   Website: http://supermamas.com/    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.
