Welcome to our podcast—A podcast about two Latinas, one faith, endless stories! This is a podcast about 2 friends, Pastor Alexa Pineda and Pastor Jessica Fernandez, PhD, two Latinas from New York who are all about helping Christian women like YOU step boldly into your God-given purpose. After 30 years of friendship (yes, THIRTY!), we’re keeping it real and talking about everything—what friends, wives, believers, and pastors struggle with, plus all the beautiful, messy, and faith-filled moments along the way. Think of us as the tías you never had but always needed—the ones who’ll cheer you on, tell you the truth (even when it stings), and pray over you like your abuela would. Here, we serve up real talk with a side of spiritual fire—Bible truths, practical advice, and a whole lot of corazón. So, grab your cafecito, hit that subscribe button, and let’s grow, glow, and give God the glory together. Dios tiene grandes planes para ti—let’s get to it!
Episode 51 kicks off with a fun salted caramel Moon Pie taste test before quickly turning into a lively and heartfelt Mary vs. Martha debate. Anchored in Luke 10:38–42, Jessica and Alexa examine how these two sisters reflect different personalities, callings, and spiritual rhythms that many of us see in ourselves today.
Jessica identifies strongly with Mary—someone who prioritizes being with Jesus, hearing His Word, and pushing past...
In Episode 50, Jessica and Alexa have an honest, challenging conversation about identity, boundaries, and breaking free from the fear of people’s opinions.

Life transitions for women are defining seasons of change that reshape identity, roles, rhythms, and responsibilities. Some transitions are chosen, others unexpected. Some are joyful, others painful—but most mark a clear before and after moment. In this live conversation, we talk honestly about the transitions women face and how faith anchors us in the in-between.
Common life transitions we’ll explore:
In this powerful episode, Jessica and Alexa talk about what it truly means to live with a spirit of expectancy. Using the story of Abraham, they explore the kind of hope that refuses to die even when circumstances make no sense. Abraham hoped against all hope, and many times God asks us to do the same.
We all face moments that try to derail us. Disappointments, unexpected challenges, and even people we love can shake our f...
In this late-night Wendy’s mukbang, the Locas are hungry, a little nostalgic, and ready to talk about something that matters: showing up to church.
While we enjoy our “linner,” we take a trip down memory lane. Back when life was simple, five dollars filled your tank, sharing fries was normal, and the mall was the weekend hangout. Somewhere along the way, everything got louder, busier, and more complicated. Even church became optiona...
Happy Thanksgiving, Locas! It’s officially sweater weather, Alexa’s favorite holiday season — and yes, Jess wants all the turkey wings! We kick off with holiday vibes, shoutouts (including Cooking with Omi), and excitement for next year’s Cooking with Las Locas meetups.

In this episode of Las Locas Chronicles, Jessica and Alexa open up Ecclesiastes 9:5–11 and talk about what it truly means to live life to the fullest. Life moves fast — like a vapor — and it’s easy to get caught up in things that don’t really matter. But what if we slowed down and put life back into perspective?
The Locas challenge us to stop living on autopilot and start valuing what matters most — our marriages, our chil...

From doing things scared of being criticized to sharing your story before someone else gets the “copyright,” this conversation is raw, honest, and deeply freeing. Because your story is your weapon — and a weapon is strategic. You’ve got to know when an...
Season 3 is HERE, and the Locas are back — caffeinated, honest, and just a little overwhelmed.
In this episode, Jessica and Alexa get real about what it feels like to juggle all the things — ministry, family, work, and still trying to keep your peace.

Jessica and Alexa tackle the viral RaptureTok predictions that claimed the rapture would happen on September 23–24, 2025—and why those claims miss the mark.
They remind us that no one knows the day or hour (Matthew 24) and that Jesus will come like a thief in the night.
This conversation dives deep into:

In this episode of Las Locas Chronicles, we dive deep into the power of your story. The enemy uses shame to keep us silent, but when we share our testimony, it becomes a weapon that defeats him and brings freedom to us and others.
Jess opens up about her journey of shame, judgment, and healing, and we talk about how one word of condemnation can shake years of restoration—but God’s truth is greater. Together, we explore how to w...

Jess and Alexa share personal stories of pain, healing, and how God’s grace meets us right where we are. Together, we talk about breaking cycles, bui...
In this compelling episode of Las Locas Chronicles, Episode 32 dives deep into the heart of true obedience. Partial obedience is still disobedience, a reminder that being half-way in is still half-way out. True obedience means going all in, even when it’s uncomfortable.
Our message today doesn’t sugarcoat the reality—obedience isn’t always comfortable. It often requires sacrifice, courage, and unwavering trust.
We exp...
