You recently became a mother again, how do you balance motherhood with your music career, and how does this experience influence your music?
It's hard to explain! This time, with the birth of my second son, Waldi, I didn't have the opportunity to take maternity leave. I was working on the soundtrack of a film by David Trueba. Although it was a wonderful experience, it coincided with the birth, so it was crazy! Fortunately, these months I have a little more breathing space. I'm immersed in the launch of the album 'Febrero', but I don't have concerts or travel, which entails a lot of logistics when you have children. Postpartum is an introspective stage, in which physically you don't feel 100%, and everything becomes a little more difficult. I strive to do my best at every gig, preparing myself mentally and physically, and at these times, if you're not well, it shows. That's why I was relieved to know that I don't have any scheduled performances, which allows me to focus on work and rest.
Motherhood undoubtedly has a profound impact on a person. I know it may sound cliché, and I prefer not to fall into cliché motivational messages because I am aware of the social pressure surrounding motherhood. I respect and support those who choose not to have children; loving and caring for yourself is equally valuable. All of these learnings shape you and are reflected in the artwork.
However, for me, motherhood has transformed me. I am more forward-thinking and more organized, and I value simplicity more. I take advantage of the opportunities it gives me, such as those seemingly empty moments during breastfeeding, which are valuable spaces to reflect and create.
