Episode 2 w/ Vanessa Robles: La Representacion Importa! Representation Matters!

In this episode, I'm chatting with Vanessa Robles about the importance of Latine representation in schools. It's important that we show up proudly and authentically not only to honor our ancestors but also to inspire students to embrace their culture too. We got to gas each other up for taking up space in spaces where we normally wouldn't be represented, while also recognizing the immense responsibility of such labor.

Since Vanessa is an LCSW-S, I took advantage of the opportunity to learn about what I'll need to keep in mind as I go into a supervisory role for the first time. I definitely gained so much insight from this conversation and I hope you do too!
