Unrefined Mettle Podcast

On this episode, we discuss the diversity of creative expression - from painting with the more seductive body parts to the dismantling of creative blocks through trauma and pain. With a definite nod to artists whose work is entwined with mental illness, and a love/hate relationship with the musical, "Rent", Kate and Maura continue their empowerment adventures as they navigate the waters of personal creative expression.
