    Single Parenting: Strengths & Success

    In this episode, I talk with Melissa Malavet, aka my cousin/ twin, about her experience as a single parent. She shares what it was like being raised by a single mom (Margarita Segarra) and becoming one herself at twenty-four years old. We discuss the meaning of self-care in a life she wholeheartedly dedicates to another person, and how she continues to build strength and resilience in her daughter’s life.

    Sipping on Astrology with the Segarras

    A collaboration with "Sipping with the Segarras," a podcast hosted by my cousin Jonathan and his wife, Stephanie Segarra. Together, we have an open and honest conversation about astrology and how it can be used as a tool for self-discovery, future planning, and self-care. We also explore how pieces of our personal stories line up with the stars in obvious (and not-so-obvious) ways.  Sources & Inspiration:  • CHANI – https://chani.com • "You Were Born for This" by Chani Nicholas

    Navigating Family Distance

    A conversation with Lawrence Almanzar about navigating limited to no contact with immediate family.

  5. TRAILER

    Stories and Self-Care (Trailer)

    In this intro, I share a little bit about myself, Daniella, and the purpose behind this podcast. Stories and Self-Care is a space for honest conversations with friends and family about personal stories, life’s challenges, and the self-care lessons we’ve learned along the way. Each episode invites you to slow down, reflect, and feel a little less alone. You’ll also hear creative (and not-so-creative) ideas for carving out even the briefest moments of reprieve in our day-to-day lives. So grab your comfort items—whether that’s tea, snacks, or your favorite animals—and let’s take care.
