I Think I Like Her: Recent Episodes
Jenise and Leci
Making adult friends is hard. Making adult friends as women is even harder. Jenise and Leci decide to make the time to become friends. Using questions to start conversation and occasionally bringing in other women who they also think they like - Leci and Jenise admit that they should become friends.
Getting pregnant can be fun or the opposite of fun. The same with pregnancy. But telling your husband that you’re pregnant is always fun.
We read The Viscount Who Loved Me, and were left scratching our heads with Bridgerton Season 2. Also, where did all the steam go?
Mom guilt is the worst. The expectations that we put on ourselves seems to lead to burnout. How did we get here and what do we do about it?
What was life like before Target? We almost don’t even remember. It’s bananas how a store can totally shape a season of your life, but that’s the magic of Target.
We took a hiatus and now we are back for more convos, boberias and Jenise’s giggling. Leci leads some obnoxious Peloton talk half way through and Jenise kindly pretends to care.
The season is upon us and staying organized is half the battle. We can also just bask in JOMO — the joy of missing out.
Jenise and Leci discuss Imposter Syndrome, but didn't realize it until listening to the episode themselves. Body image is briefly discussed (trigger warning), but the convo is mainly about expectations and motherhood. Remember that perfectionism is overrated and that you are enough!
Don’t lie to Jenise and please don’t chew next to Leci. Otherwise, you should should be good to go.
If you’re from Miami, chances are you’ve been told you have an accent when speaking English…your first language. It’s the price to pay for living in paradise. At least we think it is.
Netflix, HBO, Bravo…there’s just so much to see and yet we are always looking for a new show. No spoilers here, we promise.
Aren’t we all just children in adult bodies? Sometimes our brains don’t function at an elite level and that’s ok. We’ll just blame the pick up and drop off lines.
The pandemic increased our drinking. What started as a short term “thing to do” became a little more common then we’d like. We discuss what encouraged us to reflect on this and why it’s hard to talk about it with others. There’s no agenda here and no judgment—just an honest conversation.

Summer 2021 > 2020. Duh, but we discuss why. At some point we discuss Danny’s bidet, Eddie’s dream of playing the lotto and our love of routines.
Jenise and Leci recap the season and some lessons they’ve learned while creating this podcast.
Meet Suzy Cisneros— a wife, mother & fellow twin mom (I think we have a type). Together with her mother, she owns Plume Home Decor, a luxury home accessories boutique. Suzy & Jenise’s friendship blossomed during Covid, but Leci met her during this episode. We discuss authentic friendship, her business & a mom fail that includes Lizzo lyrics.
Meet Melanie Mora. She’s a mom, wife and teacher who survived the pandemic teaching from home with 3 kids under 4. Basically we wanted to introduce you to a super hero. We also get into the story of how she met her husband and all the tangents just flow from there.
Meet Melanie Fernandez, founder of House of Lilac. We discuss her entrepreneurial spirit and how she decided to leave her type A legal career behind. We go all the way back to high school in this episode and Melanie tells us about her obsession with astrology.
Meet Sara St. George. Her claim to fame is that she introduced Leci & Jenise all those years ago—but she also happens to be a Clinical Psychologist, professor & researcher, specializing in family- based lifestyle interventions. A forever student, she manages to do it all while being a wife & mother of 2.
Meet Lauren Pastrana. She is a local evening news anchor who is finally living the life she worked for. That road included a long distance marriage, pregnancy during the extra early hours of the day & now juggling two kids. We are exhausted just thinking about it—but she’s as happy as ever.
Meet Kathy Delburn. She is a lobbyist who spends her work week in Tallahassee and is simultaneously focused on her 1 year old twins at home. If that sounds like a lot—it is. But don’t worry, her gringo husband helps with it all.
Meet Gabby Hugues. Aside from being one of Leci’s closest friends, she happens to be one of the most hospitable people you’d ever encounter. She’s a master of details and ambience, which is why she’s turned her craft into Gather & Be.
Leci and Jenise talk about what they think ultimately connected them—their faith lives. They discuss Catholicism, there’s some self reflection and they admit to lots of imperfections.
Leci & Jenise discuss Bridgerton and other boberias.
