About this listen
In this episode of Sacred Lessons, host Mike de la Rocha sits down with Memo Torres, Director of Engagement and multimedia journalist at the James Beard Award–winning L.A. Taco, for a moving conversation about storytelling, community, and the emotional responsibility of bearing witness. From his roots as a third-generation landscaper to becoming one of LAs’ most trusted narrative voices, Memo shares how writing and cultural reporting can serve as medicine for working-class and immigrant communities. Together, Mike and Memo explore the sacred role of the storyteller holding pride and grief at once, documenting truth without exploitation, and finding humanity in moments of crisis.
