How We Heal with Ryan Pink
We’re holding space for authentic conversations about healing from the hard things in our past and building resilience for our future. We discuss everything from ancient healing practices, culture, and spirituality, to personal stories of healing, and the newest technological applications and wellness practices. We’re all on a path to healing. And we all want to feel better and be more resilient to pain and trauma. We want to feel free, connected, and whole. Our fundamental belief is that our path to healing is momentously enhanced through shared wisdom, intentional presence (witnessing), sharing stories, and the support of others. In our “Stories of Healing” segment, guests share their personal healing journies. We find the common humanity buried like diamonds within these deeply human stories. They demonstrate how we can all serve as guides for each other, providing both practical insights and inspiration for our community. To help expand our understanding, Ryan speaks with friends of the community and today’s top healing guides about the philosophies and practices of influencers such as Gabor Maté, Thomas Hübl, Lisa Feldman Barrett, Bessel van der Kolk, Richard Schwartz, Peter Levine, and more. Join HopeGuide community founder Ryan Pink as he invites expert practitioners, changemakers, and everyday people to share their stories and wisdom to inspire a trauma-resilient society, where everyone has the support they need to heal.

Art-Making As An Accessible Conduit For Healing (Amy J. Dyck)
In this second conversation with Amy J. Dyck, she shares six paths she has discovered to healing through art. She talks about how her personal journey of using art has helped her to connect with herself and others much more deeply, and how it has helped re-build a relationship of trust and respect with herself.
Amy also emphasizes the importance of imagination and creativity in finding healing and strength. Overall, this conversation explores the need for accessible forms of healing, and how art can be used as a way to help us to do so through things like a positive self connection, curiosity and setting aside judgement, creating what we need to see, self-expression, and self-discovery.
Amy J. Dyck is a visual artist who paints, sculpts, collages and more in order to delve into her phycological landscape, tackling issues like power, resilience, and struggle through her art practice and in exhibitions. Among her accomplishments are winning several prestigious international art awards. She also writes, and is working on her first book on her journey of healing with art.
