After surgery, Meryl Cook was troubled by the scar that was left behind after her breast lumpectomy. She knew she needed to make peace with it in order to fully heal. While blessing her scar and allowing herself to see the beauty in its imperfection, Meryl created a piece of art that would change her life.
In this episode about a fibre artist that found her joy after breast cancer, we share an inspiring story how self-compassion through art can heal your soul. Today Meryl is helping other women to enjoy life fully through art, community, and encouragement, while making peace with our flaws, and embracing our wild women side.
