    I absolutely Love Locatora Radio. Mala and Diosa feel like the big sisters we all need. They’re funny, real, and full of wisdom. Every episode hits on something deep, whether it’s about culture, identity, Love, or power. I always walk away feeling more grounded, more inspired, and more seen. It’s honestly one of the only shows where I feel like my whole self is welcome.

From Sun Valley to City Hall: Councilmember Imelda Padilla on El Grito, the 2028 Olympics, and What LA Needs
Q: How do you address skepticism and opposition from neighbors (NIMBYs) when implementing solutions like Tiny Homes or new housing?

From Sun Valley to City Hall: Councilmember Imelda Padilla on El Grito, the 2028 Olympics, and What LA Needs
Q: What are the main concerns of your constituents about hosting the Olympics and global events in LA?

Starting Over In Your 30s, Setting Boundaries, and Business Breakups | CapĂ­tulo 279
Q: How to overcome the scaries of starting over in your 30s?
They emphasize that time will pass regardless, so taking action reduces the risk of future regret and that building on past experiences can feel like starting from a higher position rather than the ground floor.
Starting Over In Your 30s, Setting Boundaries, and Business Breakups | CapĂ­tulo 279
Q: What's a hill you'll die on that's completely unserious?

The Creation of Chicano Cinema
Q: What story do you think should be told on the big screen next, and who deserves that level of treatment?
Phillips discusses the challenge of selecting future subjects, recognizing the importance of documentary storytelling to highlight overlooked figures in history, and emphasizing the value of elevating stories that reflect the community's ongoing historical contributions.
