MADRES & Desmadres

About MADRES & Desmadres

Instagram: @madres.and.desmadres Motherhood is beautiful, exhausting, hilarious, messy… and sometimes completely unhinged. MADRES & Desmadres is where three comadres sit down, pour the cafecito, or the wine, and talk about the things we’re all thinking but don’t always say out loud. From motherhood and marriage to parenting, friendships, family, work, relationships, body changes, mental load, menopause, and the everyday chaos of trying to keep everyone—and ourselves—together… we’re talking about it all. No perfect moms. No perfect lives. No pretending we have it all figured out. Just real women, real stories, different perspectives, honest conversations, and plenty of laughs—with a little Spanglish and a whole lot of desmadre along the way. Because sometimes you don’t need advice… you just need a friend to say, “Girl… ME TOO.” Pull up a chair, grab your cafecito, pour the wine, and join the conversation. MADRES & Desmadres — Real moms. Real life. A little desmadre.
