24- Between Two Worlds: The Journey of Bilingual Author Candice Pedraza Yamnitz

BECOMING BILINGUAL: The Art of Speaking Spanish

About

In this special episode, I chat with Candice Pedraza Yamnitz—author, speaker, dual language educator, and homeschool mama. Raised in a home blending Puerto Rican, Mexican, and American cultures, Candice brings a unique "Latin twist" to her writing and teaching.


We talk about:



    Growing up bilingual and bicultural
    The books that shaped her childhood
    Her journey into dual language education
    What a dual language classroom really looks like
    How she became a young adult author
    The inspiration behind Unbetrothed and Ruthless
    Her process for weaving culture into fiction
    Encouragement for parents raising bilingual children



Candice’s story is full of imagination, cultural pride, and heart.
