<p>Jenn Seniuk works as an art therapist in Calgary, Alberta. We talked not just about art therapy - working with a professionally trained therapist to use art as another language for accessing and processing our feelings and sensations - but also 'art as therapy,' which is about engaging in the process of making art for creative self-expression, in the in-between spaces, and calming the nervous system.</p> <p>Everyone is innately creative and everyone can make art, if only we can let go of the judgments we might hold about what we create. Creativity is encoded directly in our DNA, just like our need and desire to be in community and have meaningful conversations.</p> <p>I really enjoyed hearing Jenn talk about the My friend Dave project and how she meets with marginalized and vulnerable men every Monday in the park. And not just meeting with them, but meeting them where they're at, where they're being brave and sharing the scary things.</p> <p>Find out more about Jenn and her practice on instagram @BellyEyeArtTherapy, @MyFriendDaveYYC & @ArtTherapy.is, on T<span style= "font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;">ikTok @BellyEyeArtTherapy & @MyFriendDaveYYC, and on her websites</span> <a href="http://www.bellyeyearttherapy.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.BellyEyeArtTherapy.com&source=gmail&ust=1745892984879000&usg=AOvVaw1zOz534rzbFXYYD7J11VBX"> BellyEyeArtTherapy.com</a> & <a href= "http://www.myfrienddave.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.MyFriendDave.ca&source=gmail&ust=1745892984879000&usg=AOvVaw3-t6VXNpm6LKe_tb9Jidtm">MyFriendDave.ca</a>.

<p>Clementine Morrigan is a writer and literary punk who has published six books and made 1000s of zines by hand over the last 25 years.</p> <p>Clementine explores complex and challenging human experiences - including incest and other forms of trauma, polyamory, and queer sexuality - with passion and integrity, as a responsibility and a calling.</p> <p>We talked about the constructed nature of confessional writing, cancel culture, and a sense of vulnerability that requires us to be aware and responsible about engaging in the right kinds of vulnerability given the context and our ability to deal with the experience if we are hurt.</p> <p>You can learn more about clementine and her work at clementinemorrigan.com.

<p>This is a brief story about something that really caught my attention. I'm not sure if it caught for the right reasons, or that I understand what those reasons are.</p> <p>But it's a story about what happened when I bumped into something that made me question the whole process of reading and writing stories (and sharing stories on this podcast).</p>
