Ep. 320 Art, Healing, and the Power of Creativity with Artist Cheri Carandanis
Description
In this episode of Simply Said, Polly talks with Cheri, a former Air Force and hospice nurse, about how creativity can heal and transform. After a brain injury ended her nursing career, Cheri turned to painting as therapy—first in private, then sharing her art publicly.
She describes how curiosity, gratitude, and faith helped her overcome creative blocks, process trauma, and find her voice. From miraculous family experiences to building a studio with her late father, Cheri’s journey shows how creativity—in any form—can bring resilience, connection, and joy.
