Quotes from Episode:
"I've become really passionate about the way art can express feelings that we have that we can't otherwise express. When you draw your anger, you can suddenly see it and you can create distance. From there you can start to heal."
"I want to share a message with anyone creative who struggles with self-criticism: being overly critical of ourselves doesn't help in the long run. Instead, it only serves to shut us down."
