Mess to Badass

In this powerful episode of Mess to Badass, Pam dives deep into the infamous phrase that has haunted generations of women: “Calladita te ves más bonita” (You look prettier when you’re quiet).This seemingly innocent saying is rooted in machismo and has been used for centuries to silence women, forcing them to prioritize appearance over self-expression. Pam unpacks the history behind this mindset, shares personal stories of growing up in a culture steeped in Marianismo, and highlights how these ideals continue to affect women today.But this isn’t just about pointing out the problem—it’s about reclaiming our voices, breaking free from societal expectations, and turning the messiness of life into our superpower.Whether you’re a Latina navigating the pressures of cultural expectations or anyone who’s felt the weight of being told to “be quiet,” this episode will inspire you to speak up, rewrite the rules, and embrace your messy, badass self.SourcesPew Research Center Stats on Latina Women – Visit WebsiteMadres de Plaza de Mayo Mexican women fight for justiceRecommended Books on Feminism and Latinx Culture:Borderlands/La Frontera by Gloria AnzaldúaFeminism is for Everybody by bell hooksFollow us on Instagram: Mess2BadassEmbracetheMess

Martha Ramos is an amazing woman who had a corporate job making six figures, and an amazing lifestyle until she realized how unhappy she was even though she had amazing opportunities through her corporate job. In this episode, she talks about some personal struggles she has gone through since she was a teenager, from emancipating from her parents to being broke to make her dream come true of having her own business, and realizing that peace of mind is better than making tons of money. Martha teaches us how the Latinx community should support, cross-promote, and help each other out as much as we can to succeed. This podcast will help you understand the life of a Latina, how some old-school mentality and societal ideals are engrained in our brains, and how the ways we have been raised have affected how to handle life.
