Creative Healing Doesn’t Look Like You Think! Brick by Brick | Another Jones
In this episode of the Refine & Shine Podcast, Angelina Rivera sits down with Charleen Jones, also known as Another Jones, a Sacramento-based creative professional, author, and speaker exploring how hands-on play can support emotional well-being in adults.
Charleen is the author of Brick by Brick: Rebuilding Through Play with Lego Bricks, a reflective guide that blends personal story, creative practice, and gentle tools for navigating burnout, stress, and major life transitions.
After experiencing her own season of burnout and going through intensive therapeutic work, Charleen began using Lego bricks as a way to quiet her mind, process emotions, and rebuild herself one small step at a time. What started as sorting bricks during a difficult season became a creative healing practice, a book, and now a growing community conversation.
In this conversation, Charleen and Angelina talk about adult play, burnout recovery, emotional regulation, creative wellness, therapy, self-care, and why healing does not always look traditional. Sometimes it looks like Lego bricks, coloring books, remote control cars, creativity, community, and giving yourself permission to heal in a way that actually works for you.
Charleen also shares about her upcoming creative wellness workshops with the Sacramento Public Library, her journey of leaving corporate pressure behind, and the powerful reminder that you are allowed to heal in creative and unconventional ways.
If you have ever felt burned out, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to slow down, this episode is a beautiful reminder that healing can happen brick by brick.
In this episode, Angelina Rivera welcomes Charleen Jones, aka Another Jones, to talk about the surprising healing power of Lego bricks, adult play, and creative recovery.
Charleen shares how Lego became a grounding tool during a season of burnout and intensive therapy. What began as sorting bricks at home turned into a mindful practice that helped her process emotions, calm her mind, and reconnect with herself. That journey eventually became her book, Brick by Brick: Rebuilding Through Play with Lego Bricks.
Together, Angelina and Charleen discuss how adults often forget how to play, why hobbies can be healthy coping tools, how creative practices support emotional well-being, and why healing does not have to look traditional to be meaningful.
In this conversation, you’ll hear:
How Charleen discovered Lego bricks during burnout recovery
Why hands-on play can help quiet the mind
How Lego became a tool for emotional regulation and therapy
The story behind Brick by Brick: Rebuilding Through Play with Lego Bricks
Why adults need permission to play without judgment
How creative hobbies can become healthy coping mechanisms
Why burnout recovery requires self-kindness and small steps

Key takeaway:
You are allowed to heal in creative and weird ways. Whatever helps you slow down, process, and reconnect with yourself matters.
