53. The Healing Power of Art and the Creative Process of Okay Cool Magazine — Kitty Knorr
"We are taught that creativity is this pen and paper, grab a paintbrush and go to town, this very definite act. When in actuality, we are using our creative energy all the time. So I would like to challenge people to be just a little bit more open-minded and discover your creative decision-making, and how you can have more fun in the process. I think in that discovery process, you learn a lot about yourself." - Kitty Knorr
Kitty Knorr (@kittyknorr) is the founder and editor-in-chief of Okay Cool Magazine, a publication, and community that explores the relationship between mental health and creativity.
Inspired by her own mental health journey, Kitty founded Okay Cool in 2018, in hopes of empowering artists to share their work and heal in the process.
In this episode, Kitty shares her experience as a writer and the inevitable challenges that creatives face.
She believes in the healing power of creativity, as well as the idea that art is a verb, an ongoing practice of self-expression.
We discuss the idea that creativity is a muscle, as well as a WIDE range of topics including, astrology, energy cycles, and human consciousness.
