In this powerful episode of Barely Famous, Kail sits down with viral immigration attorney and content creator Kathleen Martinez, known for her unapologetically pink brand and bold advocacy for immigrant rights. Together, they dive into the harsh realities and common myths surrounding the U.S. immigration system; from the true cost of green cards to the emotional and financial toll of mass deportation.

Kathleen opens up about her journey from being pushed out of a conservative law firm to founding a successful, women-led virtual immigration practice with over 45 employees. She shares eye-opening truths about why legal immigration isn’t as “simple” as people think, the dangers of misinformation, and how her viral content is changing minds; even among her most unexpected followers.

Whether you’re curious about how U.S. immigration law really works, want to better understand asylum cases, or simply love hearing stories of empowered women breaking barriers in male-dominated industries, this episode is packed with education, inspiration, and raw honesty.
