Artwork, poetry, music, and writing… they are a commonality that many of us share. These creative realms have the power to transcend languages, multicultural barriers, and can connect people who otherwise may be separated. Given the current political climate in many parts of the world, using the power of art to leverage social and cultural change is more important than ever before.

Enter today’s amazing episode guest: Kimothy Joy.

Kimothy is a Denver-based artist who creates illustrations made with joy to spark social change. She partners with people and organizations on social-awareness campaigns to inspire thought and action.

Specializing in watercolor and ink drawings, she often paints pictures of heroines of the past and present and seeks to offer a sincere and hopeful message of empowerment for women and girls. (You may have seen her images popping up all over social media during the Women’s March on Washington).

Maintaining the belief in the power of art and creativity to drive social change, she primarily focuses on working with individuals and companies who strive to make the world a better, more equitable, place for all.

… yeah, she’s pretty cool.

In this conversation, the three of us dive deep on myriad of topics, some of them are:

  • How to cultivate inspiration, especially when we’re feeling blah.
  • Why it’s so important to depict heroines in art and the media, and the impact that has on women and girls around the world.
  • What Kimothy’s creative process looks like.
  • How to create inclusive environments both between women and through art, media, and self-expression.
  • Why it’s imperative that we speak up on the issues that we’re passionate about.
  • GIRL POWER on all levels!

This conversation was so easy to have, we felt like Kimothy was our long lost friend.

If you believe in the power of women to change the world, the ability of art (in all forms) to heal and inspire, and that when we stand up for what is right, true transformation is possible… then this episode is for you!
