Grief is something we all experience but rarely talk about. This season on In Confianza, we’re breaking the silence and exploring how Latinos in the U.S. navigate the complexities of loss and healing. Over six episodes, we’ll dive into stories of resilience, forgiveness, and love—from a mother and daughter rebuilding their relationship after years of pain to a groom confronting his parents’ divorce on his wedding day to a man finding peace after decades of hardship with his father.

These are the conversations we need to have. Join us for our most personal season yet.

During a trip to Chicago for the Democratic National Convention, Liz finds her way to the traditionally Mexican neighborhood of Pilsen to eat her way through two fabulous establishments.
