Grief Is Non-verbal | Sal Marx, Visual Artist Narrative Medicine | EP 11
Update: 2022-08-17
Description
Meet Sal Marx: a visual storyteller, artist, and patient advocator out of New York City. This week’s episode tackles a different type of grief: chronic illness.
After years of misdiagnosis and invisibility, Sal turned to art to express her grief and frustrations, earning a M.S. in Narrative Medicine from Columbia University. She helps patients, doctors, caregivers, and other stakeholders to synthesize stories into powerful tools for connection and shared-decision making.
Sal notes,
“My body and mind has a language of its own, that’s non-verbal. It’s important to listen to it, I’d rather express my grief that way.”
