Dealing with criticism, disappointment, and failure is never fun, but it's especially tricky when it comes to creative work. This week, I'm joined by illustrator Grace Miceli (aka @artbabygirl) to discuss tools and practices for working through those feelings and developing a resilient mindset. In addition to her work as an illustrator, Grace is currently in graduate school to become a Clinical Mental Health Counselor and Creative Arts Therapist, so I knew she would be the perfect person to talk to about the intersection of art and emotion. In our conversation, she describes her decade-long journey with learning how to bounce back from failure and reframe those experiences as opportunities for learning and growth. Grace recommends thought work exercises for detaching from outcomes and breaking the habit of comparison. We also talk about the impact that art communities have had on our ability to handle failure and rejection, and Grace has helpful advice for anyone who has trouble finding their people.

On today's episode, I am speaking with Stefanie Belvnavis, LMHC, R-DMT. Stefanie wears many hats as a Jamaican-born Dancer, Independent Artist, Disabilities Advocate, Dance Movement Therapist/Consultant, Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Clinician and Creative Arts Therapist. We take a deep dive into the parent/child relationship, how we can break generational parenting cycles and develop healthy relationships with our children that will help them to be all they can be and thrive in this world.   Here's some more information about Stefanie.   Founder of The Diahann Project and A Bucket For the Well, Stefanie specializes in multicultural mental health advocacy for children, families, community educators, and community partners within the Caribbean Diaspora, with a focus on the parent-infant mental health and intergenerational immigrant trauma/lived experiences. An immigrant herself, Stefanie’s work is charged by seeking to create intersectional dialogue around diverse, inclusive and equitable trauma-informed mental health approaches, namely dance movement psychotherapy, within underserved/marginalized communities that marry culturally empathetic mental health practices, creative arts therapy interventions, and intergenerational studies within immigrant communities.    Stefanie is also the founder of A Bucket For The Well, which is is a multiplatform trauma-informed and culturally affirming community-arts centered mental health collaborative and wellness blog and resources network that facilitates and celebrates the intersectionality of the arts, cross-cultural nuances, minority mental health advocacy, minority health and wellness, minority self-care practices, creative arts therapy approaches, early childhood mental health advocacy, intergenerational trauma and research within underserved/minority communities, and disability advocacy within communities throughout the Caribbean Diaspora.   Stefanie has also embraced her creative roots and mental health background through also founding The Diahann Project (TDP). TDP is a trauma-informed + culturally affirming visual storytelling collaborative that centers the intersectional stories of people of color, primarily black + brown people/creatives through self-reflective portrait photography. TDP was birthed out of my own intersectional duality as a differently abled (blind + visually impaired), immigrant (Jamaican-American), mental health clinician (licensed), dance movement therapist (registered) + black + mixed race creative amongst other identifiers. “Diahann” being my middle name, is somewhat of my own creative health center point from which I am often reminded that we can continue to evolve creatively in our varying passions + that we never have to subscribe to being defined as simply one thing or one part of ourselves. As a self-taught photographer, who literally has always loved photography but only began to invest in + share my passion a few years ago, I am drawn to the layers within a person’s story/lived experience + how facets of their experience + vulnerability can be thoughtfully + collaboratively conveyed through photography.        The Diahann Project Founder/Photographer IG: @thediahannproject Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDiahannProject/     A Bucket for the Well Founder/Mental Wellness Consultant + Blogger IG: @abucketforthewell Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/abucketforthewell/

Hello listeners! Hello! Happy gratitude week. Shana is calling in from the road, she's in the middle of her tour and at her mom's in Oregon on the west coast. We are wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving, and we talk about gratitude today. Our first guest is Nada Khodlova a licensed Creative Arts Therapist and Board Certified Dance Movement Psychotherapist. Nada has served so many over the years in a clinical setting and is now bringing the healing art of dance to women and girls as The Dancing Web. Dance was a healing source for her early on. She was very self conscious of her body as a young person, and studying dance helped her move into her discomfort and feel more comfortable in her own skin. Dance therapy works because the body, mind and spirit are connected, everything we experience is stored in our body, she discusses how words can't capture everything, so movement is more direct as a therapy, finding stories, sharing stories through movement. She shares about working in an adult psychiatric wing of a hospital, mostly dealing with crisis patience, and helped develop an arts therapy program. Our second guest is Andrya Ambro of the band Gold Dime. Shana met her when she was doing sound for the Kim Gordon / Body-Head show at BSP last July. She was previously in a band called Talk Normal, and has done sound at Tonic and the Kitchen in NYC. As a female sound engineer she's a rarity!!! After majoring in jazz performance at NYU she developed her own sound, and being a drummer who primarily stands while drumming, she really stood out. She talks about having to work extra hard as a kid with learning disabilities, and also admits that she loves to practice, but performing is terrifying for her, but she moves through her fear, she doesn't let it hold her back. Her sound is very experimental and angular, she writes all the music and has her band play what she wrote and then she plays drums and sings, it's really incredible, check out her interview! Not only is tomorrow Thanksgiving, but it's a FULL MOON tomorrow night so after you're done with your meal, don't forget to make time for your Full Moon ritual. It's time for the women to bring back the sacred rituals that have been lost over time. Eat and be merry, and listen to your belly to know when it's full. Happy Thanksgiving! Today's show was engineered by Manuel Blas of Radio Kingston, www.radiokingston.org. We heard music from Shana Falana, http://www.shanafalana.com/, Gold Dime , and audio from the film, She's Beautiful When She's Angry, http://www.shesbeautifulwhenshesangry.com ** Please: SUBSCRIBE to our pod and leave a REVIEW wherever you are listening, it helps other users FIND US :) Follow Us: INSTAGRAM * https://www.instagram.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcast/ FACEBOOK * https://www.facebook.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcast TWITTER * https://twitter.com/wantwhatshehas
