    From Reader to Author: A Memoir Journey with Betty Feregrino

    What happens when you spend years searching for a story that looks like yours — and you can't find it? You write it yourself. In this episode, Bessy sits down with Betty F. Guerra — self-published indie author, Director of Operations for one of the nation's largest luxury jewelry retailers, and the powerful voice behind Escape: Chapters of a Chicana. Born in Houston to immigrant parents from El Salvador and Mexico, Betty spent years as a devoted reader looking for a memoir that reflected her experience as a first-generation Latina. When that book didn't exist, she created it. Escape is raw, emotional, and unflinching — a story of surviving childhood trauma, witnessing domestic violence, losing a parent to cancer during her teenage years, and facing the kind of prejudice that comes from both sides of the cultural divide. It's also a story of prevailing. Of becoming. Betty and Bessy dive deep into: → The moment at the Texas Book Festival that sparked the idea to write her memoir → What it means to see yourself — fully, honestly — on the page → Breaking generational cycles and reshaping the narratives imposed on Latina women → The realities of self-publishing as an indie Latina author → Why representation in literature is an act of resistance This conversation will stay with you. Whether you're in the middle of your own escape chapter or you've already made it to the other side — this episode is for you. 📖 Grab Escape: Chapters of a Chicana on Amazon — available now. 🔗 Connect with Betty: https://bettyferegrinoauthor.my.canva.site/about-me If this episode moved you, share it with a Latina who needs to hear it.
