Between the Law and the Divine with Jackie Tapia

29 minutes

In March 2020, our lives took an unexpected turn. Covid 19 forced us to change our habits and social lives so suddenly we couldn’t even mentally prepare. For my family, everything started with the cancellation of my daughter’s birthday party. As a mother, I felt powerless and sad I couldn’t make my daughter happy. Dealing with the restrictions was hard, but understanding how to navigate all the other consequences Covid brought with it was even more so.

I lost my ex-assistant and dear friend of mine not so long ago, soon after taking her second dose of the Covid vaccine. Her name was Leonora Uribe, and she was a beautiful and bright soul. Her death struck a delicate chord inside of me; I felt that sensation of powerlessness again, now stronger than ever. She truly believed that taking the vaccine would have helped save other people’s lives as many others did, but she lost hers in the end. Her story made me think about how we can make the best choices for our families and us in such complex times as the one we live in.

As a lawyer, I genuinely think that looking at our past and our previous laws, in particular, can be a perfect way to start a critical analysis of this turbulent time and find a direction to move forward. In this episode, I will share my law discoveries and how the divine guides me all the time, allowing me to see through even the darkest times.
