In this episode of The Michiana Hivecast, we sit down with Joe Michalski, a local artist whose simple yet powerful practice of doodling became a lifeline during his mental health journey.

Joe shares how his art evolved from a coping mechanism into a meaningful form of self-expression. Through candid conversation, we delve into the emotional layers behind his doodles, explore the role creativity plays in healing, and discover how art can help us reconnect with ourselves and others.

Whether you're an artist, a mental health advocate, or someone seeking inspiration, Joe’s story is a reminder that healing doesn’t always come in grand gestures—it can begin with a pen and a blank page.
