Roses are red, violets are blue, let me put you on someone whose palabras make you feel true. Yesika Salgado is a Salvadorian poet and the author of Corazón, Tesoro and Hermosa. Her work carries the kind of power that can change perspectives, break barriers, and make you feel like you aren’t alone in your struggles. Plus she’s relatable af (take that, Edgar Allen Poe). In this episode, we talk about her long, messy journey with self-love, speaking to the hearts of a new generation, and turning poems to paychecks. Plus, catfishing stories that led to her embracing her truest self.
