Episode notes

During a difficult time in her life, author Sheila Darcey found that the act of sketching and freestyle drawing—of giving a physical form to her thoughts, emotions and ideas—was an impactful way to process what she was feeling. Expression through the pen, she came to discover, can heal. In this episode, Sheila shares her journey and the process she calls SketchPoetic, a daily sketching practice with the power to become a powerful catalyst for transformation.
