A2H #16 | Finding Your Roots with Holly Pelletiere

Art 2 Heart

Welcome to the Art 2 Heart podcast. My name is David Morin. I'm a former corporate sales guy turned poet. And this is where we explore how finding your voice can help your path and your purpose find you. Whether you're currently in a career transition or can't wait to be in one, we learn how leaning into creative expression can be the missing key to transforming your life and the life around you.

This week we talked to Holly Pelletier from Massachusetts. She’s a storyteller, she’s a painter, she’s a poet, she’s an educator, she’s a mother, she’s a graphic designer who created the logo and artwork for this podcast, but that is certainly not all. Holly is a badass. She’s a rare human who is a living ambassador of the earth. It could be argued that her greatest art is her devotion to Life with a capital life itself. I want to thank Holly for bringing her whole self to this conversation where we talk about:

• Holly’s intuitive approach to visual art and how it differs from writing.
• Our high sensitivity and empathic natures
• the complexities of multicultural backgrounds
• the impact of colonialism on the struggle to find a sense of identity
• Holly’s passed down fragments of culture and how she finds comfort in diverse communities.
• Holly shares a poem that beautifully explores the journey of finding her roots and identity through nature.
