Join us for an enlightening episode of "Well, Hello Anxiety" featuring Jean Kropper, three time author and leader of purpose-driven art workshops for over 25 years here in Australia and around the world. Her workshops help make mindfulness accessible to a wide audience by supporting participants to put pen (or pencil) to paper and begin simply making marks. Jean leverages her own journey of healing from PTSD, caused by living with an alcoholic partner, to help people learn to express creativity, express uncomfortable emotions, quieten down raging thoughts, improve mental health and wellbeing and build a happier brain.
In this conversation Jean shares with Jodi what led her to leading meditative drawing workshops, how mark making and drawing help relieve and manage stress, debunks the myth that we're either born creative or we're not, the powerful therapeutic benefits of making art, how to get started and so much more.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
