345- Decrease Stress and Increase Gratitude With This One Accessible Thing, with Kelly Corrigan and Claire Lichty

You're listening to Voices of Your Village, and today we get to chat about decreasing stress and increasing gratitude with this one accessible thing. I got to hang out with mother/daughter duo, Kelly Corrigan (instagram.com/kellycorrigan/?hl=en) and her daughter Claire. Kelly is a New York Times bestselling author of four books about family life, the host of her own PBS show and a top 1% podcast called Kelly Corrigan Wonders (podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kelly-corrigan-w…). Like Claire, she can't stop making— books, paintings, TV shows, podcasts, meals, mistakes. And Claire just graduated from the University at Virginia where she is probably the school's only double major in computer science and drama. Making is her life: Computer programs, standup routines, screenplays, code songs, algorithms, pizzas. During her last semester, she was interning at a machine learning company as well as a Hollywood production studio, and this mother-daughter duo teamed up to write Marianne The Maker (a.co/d/gsIZJqJ). This is a children's book all about the power of making and really makes a case for how we can tap into creativity to decrease stress and increase gratitude. I love how they expand beyond the arts and how making can show up in so many different ways. Super stoked for y'all to dive into this one and add this book to your shelf.
