Why a Malas Hijas Club?

The idea for this group was born during a coaching session with my amazing coach, Jasleni. We were talking about what I wanted to put out into the world, and in that conversation, this idea came to life.
The Malas Hijas Club is not about being a bad daughter but it’s about reclaiming the label.
I’ll speak from my own experience as the eldest daughter. I learned very early on how to be the “good” daughter: the responsible one, the one no one had to worry about. I used to feel so much pride when people would tell me, “You’re so mature for your age,” not realizing that what they were really saying was that I had to figure things out on my own.

In becoming the caretaker, the “good” daughter, I also learned how to make myself small. I learned to set my needs aside and to people-please because it felt safer. Over time, that did a number on my self-esteem and overall well-being. My sense of self-worth was nowhere to be found.
In 2025, all of this blew up in my face.
I began to realize that I was pouring into a relationship that was no longer serving me. Choosing myself and deciding to step away was not easy, but it was necessary. It was a decision I made for me.
That moment became a turning point. I started unlearning all the conditioning of the “good” daughter and asked myself, "If I'm no longer going to be that, what happens if I embrace the opposite?”
The Malas Hijas Club is about unlearning the hurtful and harmful beliefs that once protected us but now keep us stuck in situations, jobs, and relationships that no longer serve us. We worry so much about what others will think that we rarely pause to ask the most important question:
“But what do I want?”
At first, I had no idea what I wanted. And instead of judging myself for that, I allowed myself to get curious. To be playful. To begin claiming what I truly wanted for my life.
And that’s what this space is about.
