Muchos la conocen como Macafolla o Micky Ávila, pero en este episodio hablamos con María Camila Fonseca Llanos. Detrás del humor y los personajes que representa hay una historia marcada por la soledad y la violencia. Creció con un padre que la crió mientras lidiaba con sus propias dificultades y una madre que se fue del país cuando ella tenía cuatro años y que más adelante enfrentó problemas de consumo. Una infancia que la llevó a construir su propia idea de familia.Hablamos sobre el perdón, las relaciones, el amor, la libertad de vivir sin seguir los moldes tradicionales y la importancia de darles voz a quienes usualmente no la tienen. Maca, con su irreverencia y picardía, invita esta vez a mirar con compasión a los demás y también a nosotros mismos porque, al final, todos estamos viviendo por primera vez.***Si estás leyendo esto, ¡tenemos buenas noticias!

Watching Gidget as a little girl changed the entire course of Susie Terry's life. What started with a surfboard strapped through the sunroof of her mom's VW Bug turned into a lifetime of chasing waves, building community, and staying stoked well into her seventies.In this episode of Confessions of a Surf Lady, The First Women's Surfing Podcast™, I talk with Surfer Susie about growing up surfing in Ventura in the late 1950s, teaching herself how to surf before leashes or wetsuits existed, and what it's been like watching surf culture evolve over the decades. We also talk about aging, fitness, social media fame, and why surfing still gives her the same excitement it did as a little girl.Susie's energy is infectious. She's hilarious, grounded, wildly relatable, and a reminder that surfing doesn't have to stop at a certain age. If anything, her story shows how the ocean can keep giving back for an entire lifetime.
