En este episodio te presentaré algunos elementos que componen las 8 mejores películas del cine latinoamericano, pero sobre todo te propondré algunos títulos que han sobresalido en la última década.

Measurable: My partner will provide feedback on whether they feel heard and understood by my responses.
Attainable: I will focus on actively listening during one conversation per evening for the next two weeks.
Relevant: Improved communication will strengthen my relationship with my partner.
