In this episode, I sit down with my colega Norma Valdez-Jimenez, an academic counselor at Contra Costa College. Norma shares her story—from her childhood experiences growing up in San Pablo, California, to her academic journey at CCC and San Francisco State. She shared about the importance of being present and serving our students. We also explore her path as a poet, and the insight and growth that come from putting pen to paper.
