Join us as we continue our journey with our recaps of the Wounded Healer Poets' Brigade! There's nothing like a little conversation with poets, and prompts with pieces to dive into -- so don't miss this episode. This week, we discuss the complexities of when others lack the capacity to be there for us and how to handle it. The spoken word poetry that came out of this discussion was absolutely amazing.
Meet EDJ, the 12 year-old spoken word phenom. That's what they're calling her, and you'll have to tap in to find out why.

If you are into the whole "healing" and "transformation" thing, then this is the episode for you!

Led by two poet/mental health professionals, this is an endeavor to bring the community together and deepen insight into selfhood and metabolize feelings. Come get this conversation and these prompts!
