Ep. 48: From Trauma to Triumph, Part 2 w/ Heather Wolfe

In Episode 48 of The Composed Artist, host Stephanie Gaffney interviews live wedding painter Heather Wolfe, who shares her incredibly personal story of overcoming trauma and finding triumph through her art. 

In Part 2 of this powerful interview, Heather discusses how her past trauma has shaped her life and career as a live wedding painter, and shares her insights on balancing a demanding career with motherhood, as well as the unexpected success of her product, FASTONEs.

Heather also offers practical advice for artists on how to manage the high-stress environment of not just live wedding painting – but life, overall – through preparation and self-care. A must listen that goes beyond the art.
