This week, Christian Byfield arrives on Los Hombres Sí Lloran. He is a tireless traveler who has traveled the world with a purpose that goes beyond enriching his life and soul with landscapes, cultures, and experiences: being himself, without reservation. But Christian's journey begins long before he set foot on his first plane: it goes back to his childhood and continues into his youth, when he felt trapped between family and social expectations about success and what people will say. But we are not made to live in prisons, and Christian decided to break away from everything and discover his own identity. In this episode, Christian opens his heart to us about his coming out of the closet (in terms of sexual and professional identity), the homophobia that surrounded him while he was growing up, and how the need to escape led him to find a path of self-love and freedom. This is an episode that makes us question the stories we have been told, the discourses that surround us, the wounds we inherit, and, above all, what we are sacrificing every day to fit in. Always grateful to you, Christian. For opening your heart, the doors of your history and for leading us to question and break everything, if necessary to be and feel in complete freedom.
