Episode description

In 2020, Truth Be Told producer Isa Mendoza shared her truth about the painful impact her father’s deportation has had on her life. We are revisiting this powerful conversation in light of President-elect Donald Trump’s promise to deport undocumented immigrants who are primarily from Mexico and other South American countries the moment he gets into office.

For this episode, we called up Adriana Alejandre, a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) and founder of the Latinx Therapy podcast, who offered advice to Isa and tools we can all use to help those we care about who have and will experience family separation. The episode ends with a powerful conversation between Isa and her father.

A heartfelt thank you to Isa for sharing her story with us.
