Breaking Machismo: We Refuse to Raise Emotionally Broken Men

Description

We were raised in homes where feelings were weaknesses, boys were told to “man up,” and daughters were taught to serve future kings who never learned how to love. Machismo wasn’t just an attitude, it was the family heirloom nobody asked for.

In this first episode, two Latina moms go raw about growing up around emotionally unavailable men, watching our mothers shrink, and being told “así son los hombres” like it made abuse acceptable. But we’re not raising the next generation of emotionally damaged husbands and silent fathers. We’re raising boys who can love without power trips and feel without shame.

If you were raised by machismo but refuse to pass it on, this one’s gonna hit deep.

➡️ Follow the podcast, share with a cycle-breaker, and leave a review if you're done raising emotionally unavailable men.

🔞 Explicit language, emotional triggers, unexpected tears, and uncomfortable truths ahead.
