Jessica and I had a great conversation about the process of art healing. She has worked to know and trust her path and follow her passion. Jessica was a presenter at our Loving-Healing-Creating Summit in February.

Jessica Malli Mercier is a long-time creative soul, a mixed media artist, as well as a graphic designer. Her goal is to inspire others to be free in their creative process. When creating an art journal, the end result isn't the most important part, it is the time that we take to make art, and the telling of our stories that should take precedent. It is a special place to express emotions, fears, joys, and things that we love. It is an opportunity to document your life, a safe haven for your inner thoughts and feelings, and the time that we take to free ourselves in the creation process can be very powerful. This form of art is open to so much experimentation and passion. It is a brilliant exercise for people and artists trying to find their style, and are just beginning or are unsure of their level of talent. Art journaling has been such an important part of her life as a woman and as an artist simultaneously and she loves to share things that she has learned in her own journey through this medium.

Amanda and I had a great conversation about the healing aspects of art, and how she used her art to find her way through depression. Amanda and her partner were both part of our summit in February.

Over the last four years, Amanda Anderson has worked hard at perfecting and improving her art techniques, her self-care routine, and how to use art to improve her mental health. In 2016 she was admitted on a suicide watch because she was in the depths of a nasty postpartum depression. While admitted, she found a natural love and talent for art. That was the first time she realized she could use art to help her heal.

Since then, she’s never stopped painting and drawing. In August 2020, she became a Therapeutic Art Life Coach and is currently completing her bachelor’s degree in Fine Art Education, with the plan to get her master’s in Art Therapy to become a licensed art therapist.

Amanda has been fortunate to build a mini business out of her home office, currently just outside of Boise, Idaho. Not only does she get to take her art, her four small kids, and her business all around the world (her husband is in the military), She gets to inspire and teach thousands of budding artists how to use art to navigate overwhelming emotions and hard times. AND she hosts her very own podcast, ‘The Safely Spoken Podcast’ (it's a safe space to talk about real life and real emotions).

Carol and I spoke about her passion for things that keep her sane, such as music and movement. For her they start out as hobbies but then become money makers such as her private music lessons, play-shops, and fitness. Her days are NEVER dull!

When people used to ask Carol what she does for a living for the past 14 years or so, she would simplify by saying, “I teach people stuff.” Teaching is her passion! She currently teaches economics and workplace writing at Southern Methodist University and her teaching doesn’t stop on campus—nor do the subjects! She has a passion for things that keep her sane, such as music and movement. They started out as hobbies but became moneymakers in private music lessons, play-shops, and fitness (Pilates and Dance). Her days are NEVER dull!
