Eva Mendes (evamendes) talks being a cycle breaker as a mom. The 50-year-old mom of two spoke with “Parenting & You” podcast about  raising her daughters, Esmeralda, 10, and Amada, 8. She spoke about working on breaking the pattern of yelling that her Cuban mother often used on her. 

“In my mind, it’s not like a mean yell. But it doesn’t matter, I yell. And it’s this yelling that I find so cultural but it’s like I’m having a really hard time getting through and not yelling. The rushing and the yelling for me.”

“My mother was definitely, again, so loving and so amazing but it was definitely like raising us by fear. That whole thing. That I really talk about being conscious of,” Mendes added.
