October Gonzalez knows two things intimately: grief and joy. As a kid, she grew up in a wild and chaotic environment fueled by her parents' music careers and drug addiction. She and her sisters were bounced around between friends and family, and at the age of 15, she got the call she dreaded — her mom had overdosed. There was deep sadness and deep relief. That chapter was done, and she began the next phase of her life when she moved in with her aunt and started high school. Kelsey and October discuss all of it, along with how her friendship and ability to support AND encourage people through grief makes her the type of friend we all need as we travel through the experience of losing someone we love deeply.
