    Love > Hate | Mic Flip with Katia & Marina

    Katia sits down with her producer, Marina, to reflect on the most meaningful lessons from the season’s conversations. Together, they revisit the powerful themes that emerged from interviews with activists, educators, public service officials, journalists, and parents navigating complex social realities. From dismantling rigid gender norms and raising emotionally healthy boys, to modeling activism for the next generation, this episode explores what it means to parent with intention in an increasingly polarized world. Katia opens up about how her own upbringing shaped her values, the responsibility that comes with privilege, and why empathy—especially the kind that extends beyond our own communities—is essential to raising compassionate children. Along the way, the conversation revisits key moments from the season’s guests: immigrant advocates using storytelling as resistance, journalists reporting on difficult truths while protecting their families, mothers navigating invisible labor and caregiving, and philosophers reminding us that ethics is a responsibility we all share. Ultimately, this episode asks a simple but profound question: What values are we passing on to the next generation—and how do we model them every day? If this season has shown anything, it’s that parenting doesn’t exist in a vacuum. It lives at the intersection of culture, policy, community, and the deeply human work of raising thoughtful, empathetic people. - Don’t forget to FOLLOW the podcast on Instagram and TikTok.
