Welcome to Episode 8 of Taste of Meaning! Hosts Charlie and Martin are joined by Sophia Duff, a digital marketer and social media maven from Virginia who moved to Los Angeles to pursue her career in Entertainment. Sophia is a mixed Latina, being half Venezuelan, quarter Brazilian, and quarter Canadian-White. She talks about her favorite meal from Venezuela, arepas, and how difficult it is to find them here in the US. Her ambiguous background has played several, defining moments in her life that we touch upon in this episode. Sophia has worked as a Production Assistant in her spare time for talents such as Donald Glover and Juice WRLD. She's also worked on the Hilary Clinton Presidential campaign back in 2016. All in all, the Third Act of this episode may be some of the most genuine conversations we've had of the season; it all cultivates to an experience where Sophia stood up to a man and was called a "Fiery Latina" by her friend for trying to defuse the situation. This comment was used to excuse Sophia's behavior and justify the man's actions, however it made Sophia feel her entirely argument was dismissed after speaking up for herself. Be sure to listen to this episode to get more of the story and the impact it had on her. As always, thank you for listening and enjoy this episode!
