Join the Braga sisters, Lesley & Stacy, as they dive into the world of first-generation immigrant experiences. Growing up between two cultures brought its own set of challenges, joys, and unforgettable stories—and we’re here to spill all the tea.

Featuring sisterly conversations and guest stories from fellow first-gens, this podcast is a celebration of resilience, identity, and community. Whether you’re a first-gen yourself or simply curious about the experiences of navigating two worlds, this is your place to feel seen, heard, and inspired—and maybe even laugh a bit.

Things We Didn’t Talk About Growing Up (Part 2): Sex & Dating

In this episode, the Braga sisters pick up where we left off—this time diving into the really hush-hush stuff from our childhoods: sex ed, puberty, dating, and using the right names for body parts. 

We talk about awkward school sex-ed memories (hello, “Know Your Body”), the American Girl puberty books, and what it looks like to have age-appropriate conversations with kids today. 

We also get into dating under strict household rules, why secrecy breeds better liars (not safer kids), and how we’re approaching honest conversations about birth control, protection, and internet safety with the next generation. 

Resources & Terms Mentioned

  • American Girl books 
  • Celebrate Your Body (And Its Changes, Too!) The Ultimate Puberty Book for Girls
  • Donate to Planned Parenthood so teens can continue to get access to reproductive health care
