The moment art becomes more than a hobby—when it transforms into a lifesaver, a sanctuary, and finally reveals itself as your divine purpose—that's the beautiful journey Ovi Paulter shares in this soul-stirring conversation.

Ovi takes us back to her darkest chapter, when depression gripped her life as she raised three young children, including a son with ADHD. When medication failed to lift the fog, a simple suggestion to "find a hobby" led her to a community oil painting class. Those two-hour sessions became the only moments where she could truly breathe—where the constant fight-or-flight response quieted, and peace found its way in. "God's grace and painting saved me," she reveals with unmistakable conviction.
