In this episode, I explore the transformative power of change through poetry. I share a personal journey of navigating life's storms, learning to breathe underwater, and stitching myself back together. My poem 'Capsules Part I', delves into themes of identity, healing, and personal growth, illustrating how change is a constant force that shapes us. What does change mean to you? Is it a force for good or a challenge to overcome? Join me as I encourage you to reflect on change and its impact on your life, embracing the beauty in transformation.
