In Episode 172 of Influential Origins, host Alan Mindel sits down with Jorge Cortez, who escaped El Salvador’s civil war and a devastating earthquake to chase the American dream. From a remote farm—where hospitals were as rare as snow—to midnight supermarket meet‑cutes and building a thriving maintenance business, Jorge’s story is pure grit. He worked seven days a week, disinfected hospitals through COVID, earned his citizenship—and still faced racial profiling at JFK. Tune in for an unfiltered, forward‑thinking conversation about resilience, dignity, and what it truly means to belong.
