From Passion to Purpose: Our Founder’s Story

Art has always been a profound force in my life, though for a long time, I didn’t think it was meant for me. Growing up, I was captivated by my mother’s artistic talent and by the way she could translate emotions onto a canvas. I longed for that kind of talent, that ability to spill thoughts and feelings onto the page in a way that felt freeing.

But after countless attempts to recreate her magic, I convinced myself I wasn’t good enough. I put creativity aside, leaning into my strengths in organization, business strategy, and operations instead. While those skills served me well, something was always missing.

It wasn’t until my mother passed away that I realized just how much her art had meant to me. That loss, that deep ache of missing her, led me to self-reflection and healing—and in the process, I rediscovered creativity in a way I had never experienced before. I began creating just for myself, without comparison, without judgment. And in doing so, I found peace, joy, and a sense of self I had long ignored.

I learned something life-changing: You don’t have to be an artist to use creativity to heal and grow.

That realization, combined with my love of art history and my background in business, led me to become a certified art healing coach and launch Brush + Soul—a space where art and emotional wellness intertwine. I truly believe creativity is for everyone, and I’m here to help you explore it in a way that feels natural, freeing, and healing.
