Create Out Loud With Jennifer Louden
Technology
Have you ever been told to "everything happens for a reason" or "things will get better in time" when something truly awful has happened to you?
Singer/songwriter and author of How to Lose Everything Christa Couture can relate. Christa has an advanced degree in loss: the loss of her leg to cancer as a child, the lost of two children in their infancy, the loss of a marriage, and temporarily, her voice to thyroid cancer. How she could possibly be creative after such life-shattering tragedy? That's what we explore in this grace-filled conversation.
We also discussed:
- How to take the leap into our work when we're feeling blocked.
- How Christa turned her amputation into art
- Christa's philosophies on "person-first" language around disability
- Her brief stint in film school
- How she channels her indigenous roots into her creative and spiritual life
Christa's book HOW TO LOSE EVERYTHING can be found anywhere books are sold:
