Gabby Roslin Podcast

Hello and welcome to that Gabby Rosen podcast, part of the Acast Creator Network.

My guest this week is the actress Diane Guerrero, famous for Netflix shows such as Orange is the New Black and Jane the Virgin.

She is one of the stars of Disney's new beautiful animation Enkanto, which opens on November the 24th.

It features songs by Lynn Manuel Miranda, which are gorgeous.

Diane was actually in Colombia when we recorded this episode.

She spoke so honestly and passionately about her own family, being born in the US to

Colombian parents, and the nightmare she went through at the very young age of 14 when she came

home from school one afternoon to find that her parents weren't there. Later that day, she found

out they were being deported. She talks about her own

feelings of imposter syndrome. When, at an awards due, she saw Meryl Streep, and she tells me that

she was too unconfident to go and talk to her. She does get very excited discussing the plans

for her own upcoming wedding, and it may have something to do with singing.

This is a very honest and open chat, and at times heartbreaking, especially when she talks about her struggles.

I was left with a feeling of such respect for her and what she stands for and what she's trying to do to change people's

out-of-date opinions. I do hope you enjoy listening. Please can I ask you a favour? Would you mind
