Expat Family Connection

Creating Life Mosaics


Listen Later

Most of us could use a little help in telling our life stories, especially as our lives get further outside standard categories. This episode kicks off a series on storytelling, with a hands-on, easy activity I've developed, inspired by the artform of mosaics. It's a way to look at all the good and bad, all the ugly and beautiful, a way to take all your "broken" pieces and mis-matched bits, and fit them together in a meaningful design.
