Listen now:

Dr Marion Piper joins me on Creativity: Uncovered to unpack what creativity means to her and
~ spoiler alert ~ it is not just about creative practice. For Marion, it is a way of thinking, an exploration and a way of “connecting the dots”.

This explains why her Ph.D is all about using creativity for post-traumatic growth.

In this episode we discuss the relationship between trauma, mental health and creativity, and how creativity is not just good for you, it can actually be healing too.

Happy listening!
