Enter into the creative process to share your experience as you feel it, see it and know it to be true. As Black feminist poet Audre Lorde writes, “Poetry is not a luxury” as it helps us to delve deep into our experiences, and retrieve parts of ourselves in the process. Thus, the creative process is a form of self care, a place of return to ourselves and our stories. And if we choose to share, we create a portal for collective healing.
