Creativity at Half Mast: Navigating Mental Wellbeing (#20)

Welcome to episode 20 of Unfold with Kellee Wynne.  Today we’re taking a step back to being a little reflective.   The Virtual Art Summit closes today and we’ve talked about it all month but today is also the last day of Mental Health Awareness Month and it’s an opportunity to talk about destigmatizing mental health and the conversations we have around it.  The USA started observing Mental Health Awareness Month in 1949 but it’s only in recent years that it’s become mainstream and this needs to continue and become part of everyday conversations.  In this episode, Kellee shares her own journey with her mental health and how she addressed it, and how she continues to work on it.  She shares 3 main steps."This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. That is how civilizations heal." - Toni MorrisonThe world needs our creativity.  Get the support you need so you can be centered so that you can create your art and bring beauty to the world.Visit the show notes for the list of all the artists featured and also links to all the episodes Kellee mentions.  These are interviews she’s done with some of the artists in the summit and if you haven’t already, I’m sure you’ll enjoy the listen.It only happens once a year - The remarkable FREE experience starts July 23rd!
