If you want to get back to the kind of creative practice that lifts you up instead of triggers you, this episode is for you! Gemma Correll is a world-renowned illustrator and cartoonist with one of the most personal and practical creative practices that I know of. She has been art journaling way before it was cool, and it’s turned into a cathartic experience that she now shares with the world through her online comics and now her phenomenal graphic memoir “Anxietyland”. We discuss: 1 - How to access that energy of making just for yourself before you think about anyone else. 2 - The power and pitfalls of mixing creativity with your mental health. 3 - What type of creative community we hope to see evolve in a post-social media-centric world.
