In this hour‑long Spanish‑language interview, hosts Sophie and Margarita Pasos sit down with veteran journalist Mirka de Llanos to explore the many challenges she has faced and the strategies that have helped her survive and thrive. Mirka recounts a harrowing episode of physical aggression by an ex‑partner, a painful separation from a later husband, and the emotional toll of weight loss and diabetes, all of which led her to contemplate suicide. She describes how her deep Christian faith, daily prayer, and reliance on God became a lifeline during those darkest moments. The conversation then shifts to her upbringing as the child of Cuban immigrant teachers, her early mastery of Spanish, and her decision to study journalism at the University of Miami. Mirka explains how relentless persistence—calling Univisión’s Channel 23 every week, accepting entry‑level reporting jobs, and competing in the Orange Bowl beauty‑pageant‑style contest—opened doors to Primer Impacto, Telemundo’s Red Vivo, and eventually her own program La Mesa Caliente. She reflects on navigating short‑term contracts during COVID‑19, choosing to move at her own pace, and the importance of humility and respect when facing criticism on a secular platform. Throughout, Mirka offers concrete advice on recognizing red‑flag behaviors in abusive relationships, setting boundaries, seeking Christian‑aligned therapy, and coaching aspiring on‑camera talent on non‑dramatic performance. She also shares personal anecdotes about her public relationship with Luis Miguel, the impact of media scrutiny, and the value of maintaining a multifaceted identity (designer, writer, mother). The interview closes with a heartfelt message to younger women and future generations: trust God’s perfect plan, choose mentors wisely, prioritize faith, and keep moving forward with resilience.
