118. Dear Younger Self

118. Dear Younger Self

Author: LGBTQ+ Podcast by Jojo & Dayra December 2, 2024 Duration: 55:01

In this episode, we reflect on the pressures of marriage, kids, and career milestones. We talk about what we've accomplished so far, and how those societal expectations shape our lives.

We also dive into the movie My Old Ass, where an 18-year-old meets her 39-year-old self during a mushroom trip, offering life advice about love, family, and choices. Dayra shares why this scenario would be her worst nightmare, and we wrap up by discussing the things we wish we could tell our younger selves.

Tune in for a mix of humor, honesty, and reflections on the wisdom that comes with age.

Family Meeting:

1. "I have a serious mental illness that I’ve been dealing with for over 10 years. I’ve always taken my meds and I’ve always been fine. If I don’t have any issues managing my diagnosis there really is no reason to disclose this. Am I in the wrong if I’m in a relationship with someone for a few months or 1 year & disclose this?"

2. "I went on a date and I immediately knew I didn’t want to see her again which is why I decided to “practice” telling someone about my mental illness. "


FOLLOW LES CHAT ON SOCIAL MEDIA: 


There's a particular kind of conversation that happens when you're among friends who truly get where you're coming from-raw, honest, and often hilarious. That's the space Les Chat Podcast-LGBTQ+-Lesbian Latinas creates. Hosted by Jojo and Dayra, a queer couple whose dynamic is as engaging as their insights, this podcast feels less like a formal show and more like pulling up a chair at their kitchen table. Their discussions are grounded in the specific, vibrant intersection of being both Latina and part of the LGBTQIA+ community, drawing from their own life experiences alongside those of friends and family who are either in the community or staunch allies. You'll hear them dive into the messy, beautiful, and complicated realities of relationships, sex, and dating, while also unpacking topics like labels, the reclamation of slurs, and breaking down stereotypes. It’s storytelling with a point of view, where personal anecdotes open up into broader conversations about identity and culture. Tuning into this podcast means getting a genuine, unfiltered look into a world that is often misunderstood, all delivered with the warmth and familiarity of a long-overdue chat with your favorite people.
