Being American and Latina can feel like living between worlds — growing up with one cultural heritage in the home and another you must learn to navigate once you leave your doorstep.

Amber sits down with Melissa Rodríguez, founder of Social Media Relations, a social media and digital advertising agency based in Los Angeles, California that helps businesses connect more meaningfully with the dominant Latina market. Melissa reflects on her experiences, views and values as a second-generation Latina, growing up in the U.S. 

Produced by: Kai-Saun Anderson

Music by: Podington Bear - Soft Driver and Rope Swing
