Creativity through the lens of a psychologist, art playgroundist and author

"I think that it begins, for me, with getting quiet enough to hear what's going on inside me."

Rachel Awes works as a psychologist, art playgroundist, and author, who loves listening to the beauty in people and animals and all living colors—and she truly embodies color, as she is also an ambassador for the Swedish clothing company, Gudrun Sjoden.  Her 4 published gift/self-help books are infused with loads of her colorful drawings, all designed to affirm the human heart. Her newest illustrated personal growth/gift book is called The Relationship Book: A Soulful, Transformational, and Artistic Inventory of Your Connective Life. She lives in Saint Paul, Minnesota, with her husband and tortoises, complete with wild bunnies in her yard, and two dear sons (ages 24 and 26) living nearby. Her most tender and mighty hope is to hold up a mirror for many, reflecting a hearty truth of your boundless worth.
