Hey friends! This episode is a special one—you don’t want to miss it. We’re sitting down for some real talk with Pauline’s amazing mom, Maribel. She’s been through a lot lately, including a really tough fall that left her with two broken arms. Yep, you read that right—two!

We’re getting real about how this experience has shaken up their family, and ultimately led to some deep reflections and unexpected growth. Maribel opens up about what happened—the scary moment of the fall, the painful wait for help, and what recovery has been like. But beyond just the physical healing, it’s also been a time of learning how to navigate boundaries, especially when you’re living with your mom as an adult. They talk about the push and pull of independence, the challenges of sharing space, and how they’ve both had to adjust.

Maribel also shares how her journey with addiction has given her the tools to cope, live in sobriety, and lean on the support that has helped her stay strong. She reflects on the importance of having people in your corner, knowing when to let go, and how recovery has shaped her ability to face life’s challenges head-on.

From the struggles of giving up control (especially when you have to), to the value of a clean home, and just how much we all need our people when times get tough—this conversation is real, raw, and filled with wisdom.

So grab a drink, get comfy, and tune in—it’s one of those heart-to-hearts that reminds you just how strong love, resilience, and support can be. ❤️
