Speak Your Truth

Better late than never. Life gets to be busy and overwhelming sometimes, but I couldn't let this great conversation sit any longer. From our recording in October of 2025, welcome...David Armstrong!! We are talking about the ever changing art scene growing in High Point and threading all these pieces together to build an art scene like no other.

SummaryIn this conversation, Laurie Mendenhall interviews Yolanda Grier, a local artist and teacher, about the healing aspects of art and creativity. They discuss how art has played a significant role in Yolanda's personal healing journey and the importance of providing space for others to explore their own healing through creative expression. The conversation also touches on Yolanda's current art shows, her dual role as an artist and teacher, and the intersection of poetry and art in her work.You can find Yolanda Grier all over the triad!

What happens when you hold onto pain? I'm talking true sadness that comes with the loss of a loved one. Not a lot of people talk about it. They say, I'm fine. The truth is, they think they're fine, but stuffing down pain is hard work. It's like keeping a secret. When people tell me they don't remember things, I automatically believe it's from trauma. I'm not talking life threatening trauma....just little t trauma. This past week, I experienced letting go of some painful memories that I only half remembered. Memories of the loss of my grandmother and her final Christmas on this earthly plane. I jumped in to do my podcast on video. It's on my YouTube if you want to check it out!!

I've never felt shame in this way before. It was really weird for me. To feel a sense of sadness, pain, and even loss around something that was at least 30 years old. I knew I had been peeling my onion down layer by layer, but this one was out of the blue. Shame is a dirty lie we tell ourselves. It's an emotional bond that I no longer wanted. Yet, the only way out is through it. Join the conversation In the private group on Facebook. Like my  page on Facebook. Follow me on Instagram.
