Grief with Curly Velasquez | Las Paleteras E3

In this heartfelt episode of Las Paleteras, hosts Cesar, Ana Sheila, and Nalgona welcome special guest Curly Velasquez, another beloved paleta flavor who brings his own unique sweetness to the mix. Curly shares his story, starting with the cherished memories of his late abuelita, a bond many of his followers felt with him as he shared her impact on his life. The conversation dives into the depths of grief—how it can manifest in ways beyond physical loss, reaching into the end of relationships, friendships, and even the shedding of old identities or dreams that never came to be. Cesar and Ana Shela guide the discussion, asking Curly to share his personal journey and how he navigates the complicated, often non-linear stages of grief.
