hosted by Yarel
(Season 3 | Episode 104)
[TESSA] The Friendship Series Continues.
Our first guest host, Yarel, brings us a new set of friends and ideas. She is joined on this panel discussion by Yndia Lorick-Wilmot, Jessica Filion, and Melvin Pullen.
Yarel is from Lawrence, MA (which today is the second-largest Dominican community in the USA). Her parents both came from the Dominican Republic. And Yarel is a very dear friend.
