Join Alejandra Campoverdi, First Gen: A Memoir, and Jessica Hoppe, First in the Family: A Story of Survival, Recovery, and the American Dream, for a conversation about breaking cycles of generational trauma, healing, and reclaiming identity. Both authors explore the emotional tolls of navigating social mobility, recovery, and the American Dream as first-generation women. Through personal stories of survival and resilience, Campoverdi and Hoppe offer profound insights into the intricacies of belonging, self-discovery and the path to true healing.
