In the Middle of Grief I Moved to the US with Yara
Welcome to episode 40 of The American Dream in The Eyes of Immigrants Podcast. I am your host, Heidy De La Cruz, and I am on a mission to change the narrative of immigration one immigrant story at a time!
Today’s guest is Yara Demarque. She is a finance advisor who immigrated from Brazil because her family wanted to fulfill her sister’s wish of living in the United States after she suddenly died from eating a burger! Not only is that tragic – Yara was also engaged when her family decided to move! What grief Yara went through at such a young age.
Yara starts her story by telling us how unstable her life was in the beginning; her family moved a lot, so she barely ever made friends. So, when people ask her if she misses Brazil, she really doesn’t because her family are all here now.
She didn’t even want to move to the United States in the first place, but once she arrived, she said, “I’m here; might as well make the best of it.”
Listen to her tremendous story of how, in the middle of grief, she changed her whole life and moved to a new country with her family.
Yara, you are incredible! Thank you for sharing your journey!
Thank you for being here.
With Love, Heidy
