Refusing to Forget the Self: Healing through Art, Self-Discovery, and Community with Loveth Heard

Making Meaning

Join host Reese Brown as she sits down with photographer, artist, Artistic Director of Knotted Lace, and Meaning Maker Loveth Heard!

In this conversation, Reese and Loveth explore what it means to reclaim your humanity through rage, creativity, queerness, and neurodivergence. From breaking free of outdated expectations to building healing community through art and connection, this is a story about unlearning shame, embracing complexity, and choosing radical self-love.

Reese and Loveth talk about healing from religious and social conditioning, the power of neurodivergence, embracing queer identity, and how creativity can serve as resistance in a world that often tries to make us forget who we are.

A huge thank you to Loveth for her time, energy, and vulnerability during this episode! You can find her work and Knotted Lace below.
