Lael Couper Jepson tells a story on stage at her annual women's storytelling series, SheSpeaks, in December 2018 at One Longfellow Square in Portland, Maine.

In this story, Lael speaks to the power of making art as a means to figure herself out:

"I just keep making shit as I go—sometimes it's good shit, and sometimes it's bad shit—but that's how I figure out everything. It's my go-to interface and how I make meaning in my world...and there's no roof on me anymore...I'm just constantly conjuring..."
