Healing Through Creativity, with Nicole Cromwell 2.0

Send us Fan MailToday’s episode is Nicole Cromwell 2.0—and trust me, a lot has happened in the last three years.What started as a creative outlet has grown into something much bigger. In fact, Nicole’s life as an artist might just be giving her full-time nursing career a run for its money.Since we last talked in episode 46,  she hasn’t just been creating beautiful art—she’s been building pathways for others to reconnect with their own creativity. Her Brave Beginner Art course has expanded, and she’s added Creative Thinking in Nursing, both offering continuing education units. I’ve taken her Brave Beginner course myself, and I can tell you—it’s not just about art. It’s about rediscovering a part of yourself you may have forgotten was there.And Nicole hasn’t lost sight of the bedside. As a former ICU nurse, she’s created two powerful resources—The ICU Diary and The Hospital Wellness Journal—designed to support patients and families as they navigate some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives.You’ve heard me say it before—I deeply admire nurses who lift up other nurses. Nicole has experienced firsthand the impact of creativity: less stress, less anxiety, more joy, and a deeper connection to emotion. And now, she’s on a mission to make sure other healthcare professionals can experience that too.If that’s not altruism, I don’t know what is.Enjoy Nicole Cromwell 2.0.
