Ep. 984 – Art for Your Sanity with Susan Hensley


“One thing I love about playing with art, as part of working with people who are going through big life transitions, is it starts to create space and perspective. And that's where you really get growth and you start to say, what is going to be important ten months from now, and where should I put today's focus?” – Susan Hensley
Today’s featured author is a mom, wife, TEDx speaker, global adventurer, and transformational coach, Susan Hensley. Susan and I had a fun on a bun chat about her book, “Art for Your Sanity: How Art Journaling Can Help You Manage Chaos and Unleash Joy”, her journey from corporate life to creative coaching, why creativity is for everyone, and more!!
