Artemis Speaks
By making the world a more beautiful place, Artemis Speaks interviews writers and artists from the Appalachian Region of the Blue Ridge Mountains and beyond. This is a time we need to write and make art for the sake of healing our souls and enriching our communities. This podcast is a production of the Artemis Journal, a charitable organization now 50 years old and has evolved to be an all inclusive yearly journal with essays, poetry and art.

Katryn Broadoak, Poet, "Ports & Portals" Path of recovery from Breast Cancer
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Katryn Broadoak is a poet, mother, and breast cancer survivor whose life has carried her across five countries and countless inner landscapes. She speaks English and French (and a little Spanish if you’re patient). A lifelong seeker, she writes from the space between faith and freedom. Once steeped in organised religion, her path has evolved into something more eclectic and earth-centered, rooted in reverence for what’s real and unseen alike (with a bit of a penchant for casual blasphemy from time to time). Her poetry is an offering for anyone who’s ever felt lost — a lantern to light the way toward the other side of something hard, something holy, or both.
