Raised in the city of Los Angeles, Yolanda is a renowned woman who has accomplished various things. From being the the co-Founder of the first TV station in the nation owned and operated by a Mexican American woman, to publishing her book “It’s all in the Frijoles” (which features varios wise sayings based on interviews with dozens of famous Latinos; like Pepe Aguilar and Isabel Allende), many would say that Mrs. Nava has earned the “golden ticket” of life. However, just as her life has had ups, there has been some unfortunate downs. In the year 2009, she lost her eyesight due to an undiagnosed autoimmune illness that almost claimed her life. However, this setback didn’t break the strong Yolanda Nava, and instead inspired her to write her second book “Through the Dark”. I hope you enjoy this podcast episode and will inspire you to persevere in life as well.
