One Day at a Time's Isabella Gomez Shares Her Top Tools
Download Womaze on the App Store and Google Play to see Isabella’s Top Tools!
Isabella Gomez is this week’s curator! Her advice for the Womaze community: Take it “One Day at a Time.” Both a powerful affirmation and the name of the mega-popular Netflix show that Isabella stars in, One Day at a Time has revolutionized representation for Latinx and LGBTQ+ communities.
The show follows three generations of a Cuban-American family living in the same house. Isabella plays Elena Alvarez, the activist and feminist teenage daughter of Penelope, a newly divorced former military mother. Rita Moreno plays Elena’s very traditional Cuban grandmother, whose opinions often clash with her granddaughter’s.
In addition to being incredibly relatable and entertaining, the show is deeply meaningful. Each episode surrounds important topics such as mental health (veterans’ struggles with PTSD, depression, anxiety) sexuality (in the first season, Isabella’s character Elena comes out as gay), gender identity, sexism, and more.
At just 20-years-old, Isabella is wise beyond her years, and she’s sharing her top tools with us this week. Some of the gems you can find in her channel include a video on self-love, inspiring quotes, Jameela Jamil’s important message on body image, tools for self-care, and Isabella’s own words of wisdom.
We hope you love Isabella’s channel, and watch Season 3 of One Day at A Time on Netflix (available on February 8)!
