Call Your Sister
Call Your Sister is a podcast for related and unrelated sisters or CYS everywhere co-hosted by Alexandra Hodge and Astrid Ferguson. Every week, Alex and Astrid call each other to discuss the complexities of motherhood, sisterhood, identity struggles, dating as a single mother, sex and much more. We’re real Latinx sisters who are fiercely opinionated, and not afraid to realtalk each other about everything from (men)strual cycles and body shaming to the Platanos versus Yuccas debates and current identity life drama. We highlight women who are both trying to keep it together and got it all figured out. We also care deeply about the lived experiences of BIPOC and Lantinx women who are just trying to get through the week. We’re here for every facet of women’s humanity because we are a community, a nation of CYS everywhere.

The myths and misconceptions of culture with Nancy Paloma Collins
In this episode Astrid Ferguson (the big sister) speaks with Nancy Paloma Collins
the founder of Paloma Therapy about the myths and misconceptions of culture. We get into deep conversation about the things we allow because of our culture.
We discuss why conversations can be difficult due to the cultural norms we have passed down through generations. Some of those abnormal cultural norms include silencing those who challenge the status quo, accepting machismo as part of the culture, and internalizing abuse because we only see it as a domestic relationship issue.
Nancy Paloma Collins is a conversation starter and a therapist who focuses on providing services to Afrolatinos and LGBTQIA+ community. Her hope is to challenge what we define as a culture and redefine our values and norms that encompasses our whole true selves. Make sure to continue the conversation by following her on Instagram or by visiting her site.
