La Mesa con Papi
Welcome to La Mesa con Papi, I'm Stephanie Nemeroff. You may know me from my previous podcast, Boozy Love. This past year has transformed my life in incredible ways—I embraced marriage, and motherhood, and gained invaluable insights throughout this journey. Now, I'm thrilled to return to podcasting at this pivotal moment. After two enriching years of major life changes—welcoming our baby, getting married, and pivoting my career—I'm back with an exciting addition: my dad joins me as co-host. Together, we'll explore my adventures raising a spirited one-year-old alongside my wonderful husband, tackling the unique challenges and joys of young motherhood. I'm here to share not just my story, but to connect with others navigating parenthood in their twenties while building their lives. My dad brings his valuable perspective as an empty nester who's now embraced his role as Abuelo, offering time-tested wisdom while sharing his journey into the Golden Years.

Episode 5: Legacy in Real Time: What Are We Really Passing Down?
Episode Description:
What are we leaving behind every day—in our words, habits, beliefs, and silences? In this reflective episode, we unpack the concept of legacy beyond material things: the emotional, spiritual, and relational imprints we carry and pass on. From family patterns and cultural messages to intentional parenting and personal growth, this conversation explores how we shape the future through the choices we make today. This is a story of both inheritance and reinvention.

- Unpacking Legacy Beyond Wealth
- The emotional and relational “inheritance” we don’t always talk about
- The subtle ways we repeat or resist our upbringing
- Breaking Generational Cycles
- What cycles have been broken (and which are still in progress)?
- Naming what healing has looked like in your family
- Intentional Parenting & Re-parenting Ourselves
- How my dad thinks about parenting now vs then
- How I as a daughter have had to “raise myself” emotionally in some ways
- Culture, Community & Identity

- The pressures or freedoms of being “firsts” in any way (e.g., first to go to therapy, college, set boundaries)
- Living Legacy in the Present Moment
- What kind of emotional world are we building together?
- How being intentional today rewrites tomorrow’s story
