Sarah Sovereign - on narrative photography + healing informed inner work

Tulā - Community Episode 7

Hello friends! 🎙📸

Happy you're here + coming along with me for this episode with Sarah.

About Sarah:
Sarah Sovereign is a narrative photographer who explores the intersection between grief and joy, memory and objects. Her work often employs florals and water to visually demonstrate pain, trauma, grief, flow and resilience. As a photographer, she walks alongside people as they explore their own stories and experiences with visual medium. Based in Chilliwack, B.C., Sarah is also a registered clinical counsellor who focuses on ADHD (especially in women and late diagnoses), creativity and burnout, and grief.
