The Latino Soul Sessions
The Latino Soul Sessions: Where ancient roots meet modern minds… one story, one lesson, one healing at a time.
Welcome, mi gente. This ain’t your abuelita’s self-help show (though we love her and her rosary).
The Latino Soul Sessions is a space for all of us
navigating the messy, magical in-between where cultural healing, identity, and mental health all come together like a soulful caldo when you didn’t even know you were hungry.
I’m Dan. Curandero. Business Professional. Grad student. Spiritual work in progress. Some days, I’m deep in ceremony, asking Spirit for guidance. Other days, I’m googling how to not lose your mind while doing your soul’s work. Both are valid.
This podcast is for the ones who hear the call to walk a spiritual path but still gotta pay bills. For those straddling two cultures, two languages, and maybe two therapists (no shame). We talk about ancestral wisdom, emotional wounds, spiritual awakenings, cultural expectations, and the occasional existential crisis that hits while doing laundry. It’s part storytelling, part therapy, part neta güey? (Like they say in Mexico)
You’ll hear solo episodes, deep conversations with guests including healers, therapists, leaders, and everyday souls, and little bendiciones to carry with you. We laugh, we cry, we light some sage or palo santo or copal. Or all of them at the same time. No judgment.
So if you’ve ever felt too much, too sensitive, too spiritual, too confused, or just too tired from trying to explain what a limpia is to your HR manager… pull up a chair. You belong here.
Let’s heal, grow, and reclaim our wholeness juntos.

The Latino Soul Sessions
Protecting Your Energy (Even From Your Tía, Your Boss, and Your BFF)
Mi gente… this episode is for the healers, the feelers, and yes, the professional “it’s fine, I can handle it” people.
If you’ve ever been the designated listener, the cousin everyone calls to vent, the coworker who gets trapped in “one quick chat” that turns into a free therapy session, or the friend who gets texts like “hey, can I just ask you something real quick?” (spoiler: it’s never quick) you know what I’m talking about.
This week, we’re talking about how to protect your energy not just with sage and crystals (although I fully support a well-timed sage session), but with the kind of self-care that actually works when life and other people get messy.
Because here’s the truth:
- Just because we can hold space for people doesn’t mean everyone deserves unlimited access to that space.
- Just because we’re healers or helpers doesn’t mean we signed up to be emotional landfills.
- And just because we own 27 veladoras does not mean we have to absorb everyone’s drama like spiritual Febreze.
We’re diving into what Dr. Pooja Lakshmin calls Real Self-Care, from her incredible book Real Self-Care: A Transformative Program for Redefining Wellness (Crystals, Cleanses, and Bubble Baths Not Included) and weaving it with curandero wisdom.
Because let’s be real: sometimes “self-care” turns into a to-do list that’s as long as your tía’s phone plan chisme.
- Meditate.
- Journal.
- Cleanse the house.
- Charge the crystals.
- Heal your mother wound before dinner.
And suddenly, you’re “caring for yourself” but somehow… more exhausted.
Real self-care isn’t about adding more. It’s about making different choices. The kind that actually protects your peace, even if it disappoints people.
Because mi gente… You don’t need to be an emotional buffet where everyone just takes what they want. You are a sacred altar.
And for those of us who still feel guilty setting boundaries? We’ll reframe guilt as growing pains, not proof you did something wrong.
And for those that wanna go deeper? Grab Dr. Pooja Lakshmin’s book here → Real Self-Care. It’s not crystals and cleanses, it’s a guide to making the kind of soul-honoring decisions that actually shift your life.
This episode is equal parts chisme, healing, and calling your power back. So grab your cafecito, light your veladora, and repeat after me:
“No” is a complete sentence. And so is: “Not today, energía tóxica.”
