Hey loves! We want to know – is there anything that has had to be canceled or postponed because of the Coronavirus? In this episode Jessica shares what it's like to be a bride-to-be with no clear picture of what the future holds or how long social distancing is going to last. And we know this is the case for so many of you out there. No matter what disappointment is coming your way - we promise, we're all in this together.

When was the last time you took a deep breath from the pit of your belly and let all the air out? Chances are, it's been a while. Breathing is the thing we do all the time and think about the least. But there's power in our breath - especially if we know how to harness it. In this episode, Ana Lilia introduces us to breath work, it's healing potential, and even shows us how we can get started from the comfort of our home. At a time like this, when all of us are collectively holding our breath waiting for some good news - nows the time to unite with our breath and give thanks for this gift.

Hey loves! We hope y'all are safe and healthy right now! Since the Coronavirus pandemic broke out, we've all been trying to figure out what our new lives look like while we're social distancing. So this episode is a quick catch-up, just seeing where we're both at and how we're coping with our jobs, personal lives, and social isolation. Also, we're going to do what we can during this time to keep the podcast going and want to hear from y'all about what you want to hear and need in this time.
Much love y'all!

When Jocelyn Ramirez and her father faced major health concerns, she turned to food for solutions to improving their well-being and found the medicine she'd been looking for. Armed with new information about the power of food and the lack of resources in inner cities, Jocelyn started the vegan food service, Todo Verde. Since she started her business 5 years ago, she's served up thousands of fresh and healthy meals and convinced non-believers that vegan food can be delicious, without sacrificing culture or flavor. Hear Jocelyn's remarkable story about how she's created a successful company while carrying her community on her back.

No one is ever prepared for death, and when it's a tragedy that seems to come out of nowhere it's even harder to process. Following the death of Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna, and 7 others, we felt the need to talk about death, grief, and loss with Dr. Lydiana Garcia. She talks us through what these moments trigger in us and how we can process that pain and fear that emerges after these types of tragedies.

There's no denying it – Zoila Darton is a force of nature. She is the founder of WORD, a creative agency based in L.A., which creates iconic events while fostering community. But while many may know Zoila the entrepreneur, this episode dives into the multi-faceted woman she truly is. In this conversation, Zoila gets candid about the reality of creative and professional burnout, the blessings and frustrations of motherhood, and how she's building a practice of "joyful discipline." (And honestly, so much more!) It's a convo that is inspiring, heartfelt and so damn honest. Life is amazing, but it's also messy and complicated, but you know what y'all - we're all in it together.

Happy 2020 loves and welcome back to Wait, Hold Up! Thank you all so much for your patience as we got our lives together. We've missed y'all and are so happy to be back with a new episode! In this chat, we share why we're not big fans of resolutions, but prefer to take the new year as an opportunity to approach life from a new perspective and create changes where necessary. It doesn't always have to be 'new year, new me!' We want to hear what your goals are for 2020. Email us at: waitholduppodcast@gmail.com

Hola loves! Get ready because this episode is probably the most vulnerable we’ve gotten in a while. It’s just the two of us talking about a major ‘wait, hold up’ moment :: dealing with unrealistic or unfair expectations being forced upon us. Yarel shares the battle of being constantly told she needs to change herself because of her profession. And Jess details her struggle of needing to be liked. It’s real and raw and we hope you all enjoy. Of course, if you connect with any part of this episode, definitely hit us up on IG or email.

A huge component of our overall physical and emotional well-being.
Both of us didn't grow up feeling comfortable talking openly about sex - and even as grown women, we still find ourselves dealing with shame on the topic. But in an effort to liberate ourselves and others, we're going for it and having our first and long overdue episode on SEX. In this episode we get to it with sexologist, Rebecca Alvarez Story. We talk about learning our body’s, breaking taboos, and embracing sex toys! To destigmatize the idea of sex and sex products, it's about time us ladies talked about it - openly! By normalizing conversations around sex and wellness we hope other women, especially women of color can feel empowered to embrace their sexuality and make informed decisions for their bodies.
