Fangirling Over Art Therapy With Simon Caulfield Sriklad

Hello friend, welcome to episode 4 of the Fangirl Your Life Podcast. Today, I’m excited for you to meet Simon Caulfield Sriklad (he/him). We are fangirling over the transformative power of art and the not-always-easy but beautiful journey of self-discovery. Simon shares his story of leaving behind a "perfect on paper" career to pursue an inspiring - but by no means easy - path into Art Therapy. Expect plenty of laughs, deep dives into authenticity, and some fun recommendations.About Simon:Simon loves to create and hold spaces where people can feel seen, heard, and free to express themselves. For him, healing and connection happen through art, music, movement, time in nature, and the communities we choose to be part of. He values authenticity, vulnerability, and the small, everyday ways people show up for themselves and each other. With gentle energy, he moves alongside others, meeting others where they are at, helping them explore identity, creativity, and resilience. Tune in to meet Simon fangirling over Art Therapy and choosing the path of living your most authentic life. Here are all the links you’ll need:Check out Simon’s art ⁠https://cargocollective.com/simoncs⁠Join the Fangirl Newsletter Community for the full Fangirl Experience and to start your own Fangirl journey with playlists, a vision board template, and more https://nadinestille.com/newslettersignupDance and sing along to the Fangirl Your Life Community Playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7eIYQze5NhRk3C2kBCGlrq?si=imaZ2cB8Qoanq-PKNhEuyAWatch the movie Flow https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4772188/How creative arts supports mental health in daily life https://healthsciences.arizona.edu/news/how-creative-arts-support-mental-health-daily-life#:~:text=Studies%20consistently%20show%20that%20engaging,based%20interventions%20reported%20reduced%20stress.Macnas Parade https://www.macnas.com/Check out the many chart listings we’ve accomplished already on Goodpods https://nadinestille.com/fangirl-your-life-podcast-linksP.S.:I produced the podcast with Descript and featured the cinematic score Epic New World. I’m a proud member of the Feminist Podcasters Collective, a community of feminist creators amplifying each other’s work through collaboration and care.
