Brace yourselves for a heartening conversation with Lisa Azarmi, the creative mastermind behind the social media sensation, Ravenous Butterflies. Her journey, marked by a difficult upbringing and a tumultuous relationship, weaves a tale of resilience and self-love that is sure to strike a chord with you. She takes us through chapters in her life, from her childhood in Sri Lanka and Malawi to her subsequent move to England, where she found solace and strength through art and self-expression.
Lisa's harrowing experience with coercive control forms a crucial part of her narrative. As she recounts her struggle against emotional manipulation and bullying, she sheds light on the obstacles she faced - a family court system that failed her, friends who didn't understand her plight, and a society that lacks awareness about coercive control. Yet, she emerged victorious, and her journey of survival and resilience lends hope to many in similar situations.
Lastly, Lisa illuminates the transformative power of art in her life, a tool she used not just to cope with her circumstances but also to create a vibrant community of over a million followers on her social media platform. She shares how her creative journey culminated in the success of her book An Apothecary of Art and offers us a glimpse of her upcoming projects.
Lisa's story is a testament to the human spirit's ability to find beauty in the darkest of times, and her insights provide a valuable roadmap for those navigating their own challenges. We are honoured and blessed to welcome Lisa to our Rebel Justice family.
