Welcome back to Latinx Conversations, in today's episode mis comadres and I have the pleasure of having our second guest on the show. Aura will be joining us today to talk about her experiences, trials and tribulations as a law student. We are all very excited to have this conversation with Aura as one of us has been considering law school for some time and he is hoping Aura can shed some light on what should be expected in regards to the admission process, the demands, expectations and stress law students experience during the three years of Law School.

In today's episode we take a trip down memory lane. Ricardo, Roderick and I will talk about estranged family members. Ricardo tells us what it was like growing up not knowing his biological father and if he would be interested in building a relationship with him today. Roderick's half-sister walked out of their lives when he was only 8 years old never to see or hear from her again. And then there's Ismael…the one with the extremely dysfunctional family dynamics (telenovela status), the one who is actually the estranged one.
