Podcast Overview

I create these podcasts from the place that cost me the most to conquer: the pres And I say it just like that, without detours, because it took me nearly a lifetime to arrive here. I lived as the daughter forced to be the family’s support, the exemplary wife at the expense of myself, the judged and questioned mother. I became many things I never chose to be.

Not Having a Tribe Does Not Make You a Failure - C. V. Vergara #17

Hello.Not Having a Tribe Does Not Make You a Failure.Hope, Too, Belongs to the Black Sheep.This is a space for those who do not quite fit.For those without a tribe,without a close-knit family,without a clear place where they feel chosen.This is not a podcast for people surrounded by love.It is for those who remain standing without a safety net.And if you are here,you have probably wondered, at some point,what you did wrongnot to have a place to belong.Today, I want to tell you something that matters:not having a tribe does not make you a failure.Naming What Few Dare to SayThere is a deeply rooted beliefthat if you are alone,something in you must be wrong.That if you do not fit,if you are not called,if you are not chosen,it is because you have failed as a person.And that belief hurts.It hurts profoundly.Because you are not only alone —you are made to feel defective.Yet there is a truth few are willing to voice:some people have no tribenot because they are broken,but because they refused to betray themselves in order to belong.Sometimes, the price of fitting inis to cease being who you truly are.And not everyone can — or wishes to — pay that price.The Black Sheep Is Not the MistakeTo be the black sheepdoes not mean to be the problem.Often, it means having said “no”when the system expected obedience.It means refusing to repeat old stories.Refusing to stay silent.Refusing to look away.And that unsettles people.Black sheep are often left outsidebecause they do not uphold illusions.Because they do not fit into moulds.Because they refuse to pretend that all is well.And of course…this is rarely rewarded.More often, it is punished with silence, distance, or rejection.But being outsidedoes not make you any less worthy.From My Own ExperienceToday, I want to say this with honesty:I do not have a tribe.I do not have a table full of people.I do not have a group that holds me.I do not have a family that embraces me like in the films.And for a long time, I believedthat this said something terrible about me.That if no one stayed,it was because I did not deserve to be stayed with.But with time, I began to see something else.I began to see that even without a tribe,I was still alive.Still feeling.Still seeking to heal.And that is not nothing.Hope Does Not Always Arrive With CompanyHope does not always come with company.Sometimes it arrives alone.Very softly.Almost unseen.It is not the hope that promises “everything will be fine”.It is another kind of hope.The hope of not abandoning yourself.Of not ceasing to be who you aresimply so that someone might stay.Because belonging by losing yourselfis not belonging at all.It is disappearing in company.And true hope, even when it aches,never asks you to stop being who you are.Not having a tribe hurts.I do not romanticise it.There are days when it weighs heavily.Days when you wonderwhether it will always be this way.But hear this clearly:your worth is not measured by how many people surround you,but by whether you continue to inhabit yourself.Sometimes life gives you no witnesses.But it still gives you a path.If today you feel alone,if you feel there is no place for you,if you have been told — directly or not —that you were too much,or uncomfortable,or simply too different…I want you to know this:Not having a tribedoes not make you a failure.You are alive.And that is no small thing.And even if it does not look like it,staying alive,staying true to yourself,is already a form of hope. Thank you for being here.We will listen to each other again in the next episode. I read letters sent tomailto:vergaravanina@yahoo.com

The weight of unspoken sorrow - C. V. Vergara #16

“When the Heart No Longer Mends the Same Way”I am Vanina Vergara - C.V. Vergara to the english-speaking world born in Asunción- Paraguay. I have three children whom I love deeply, and this is my life. There are sorrows that never scream, yet they weigh —upon one’s shoulders, one’s breath, one’s weary soul.Today, I want to speak about that quiet ache:when everything around you seems unchanged,but you — inside — are no longer the same.Sometimes life stalls, suspended in a kind of stillness.A son who never calls.A father who grows old, clinging to what destroys him.And you — somewhere between love and sorrow —trying simply to breathe.Trying to understand why some things cannot be mended,no matter how wholly you offer your heart.I recently returned from Uruguay.I was there with Pablo and my in-laws —aged eighty-nine and eighty-seven.There is something profoundly tender — and deeply painful —about watching two fragile souls still caring for one another,their eyes soft with time,as though the clock had finally stopped mattering.They looked at me often,and in their gaze I felt something I had forgotten: rest.As if someone whispered without words,“You can let go now. You needn’t be strong all the time.”But then I returned.And with me came that quiet lonelinessthat has nothing to do with being alone.That hollow feeling no routine can fill.Because sometimes, you can be surrounded by peopleand still feel the air slicing through you.I still miss my mother.I miss her without idealising her —with all her shadows, with her full humanity.And in that contradictory love, I’ve learnt this:to remember is also to heal.Love doesn’t need to be perfect to be real.It only needs to remain.If you’re listening and feel that your heart no longer mends the same,that some days simply breathing is an act of courage —let me tell you this, from one silence to another:you are not alone.You are not weak for feeling deeply.There are many of us still piecing ourselves together,still breathing gently through the absences.A few days ago, I read something by Lucas Casanova,from his view of secular Buddhism, that struck me:we were taught that self-sufficiency was the goal —that needing meant you were broken,that missing someone meant you lacked self-love.But he asks: since when was humanity measured by isolation?And then I understood —to need is not a weakness.It is profoundly human.Lucas speaks of a silent epidemic: loneliness.He says that when the nervous system has been wounded by relationships,it learns to protect itself —to mistake silence for peace,distance for safety,and isolation for strength.And so we begin to hide:behind screens,behind words that don’t meet the eyes,behind digital ties that never quite embrace.Yet the soul hungers for real presence.For eye contact.For tenderness.From that Buddhist gaze, the path is not to harden —but to return to the world without surrendering to cynicism.It’s difficult, yes — but freeing.Because only when we dare to trust again, even just a little,do we begin to heal that ancient wound:the one that made us stop feeling we belonged.And if you don’t yet know how to reconnect — that’s all right.Many of us are learning too.Learning to say hello again.To talk without a screen.To belong without losing ourselves.Because we were made to connect.And even if the heart no longer mends the same way —it still beats.And while it beats, there is hope.Because life, with all its cracks,is still — somehow — beautiful.Thank you for listening.I hope my story helps you find words for your own.
