In this episode, Dana Daugherty invites her guest Jean Carlo Martinez to explore how loss and grief opened up deep exploration of himself, his family, and his Latino identity. For Jean, he found that grief was a way to learn about his family dynamics and history and to reclaim his Guatemalan roots and culture. The loss of his father sparked different grief reactions in his family, which unearthed hard truths and realities that were always there. In this conversation, we talk about the influence of narratives he grew up with around masculinity and Latino identity in processing grief and how his process reconnected him with his Guatemalan roots and the land. has set him on a path of connecting his rediscovery and reconnecting with Latino identity, specifically as a second-generation Guatemalan immigrant.
