‘Draw Your Feelings’ With Artist, Educator & Author, Rukmini Poddar
On this episode of The Power of Love Show we welcome special guest, Rukmini Poddar.
Emotions add color and depth to our lives and create meaning. Taking the time to sift through our personal emotions can teach us about ourselves and help us process big feelings when they arise. Artist, designer, and educator Rukmini Poddar understands this well and through her artwork she began to realize that “what is most personal is most universal”.
And now, readers can dig deep into their own emotions in a creative way with DRAW YOUR FEELINGS, a mind-opening and beautifully illustrated guide filled with watercolor art and meticulous detail. It is both a beautiful and practical tool for a journey of self-discovery.
From her work as an artist depicting a wide range of emotions, Rukmini has amassed a following of others seeking the same journey. Her growing platform has touched the lives of nearly 100k followers all seeking her online content and also the courses she teaches on drawing emotions, which are extremely successful.
Rukmini's creative passion lies at the intersection of emotional wellness and creative storytelling, which this journal embodies. It gently encourages readers to reflect on themselves and the world around them through lines, shapes, colors, and more. With exercises tailored to
beginners and experts alike (no drawing skills required!) readers will learn basic drawing skills and take them all the way to mapping their emotional landscape and empower them to give visual language to their feelings that were otherwise indescribable with words.
DRAW YOUR FEELINGS will stretch creative muscles you didn't know you had. At the end of the journey, you will transform the way you interact with yourself and the world.
Rukmini is an artist, designer, illustrator and educator. She is also a 100 Day Project artist and author of the book 100 Days of Obscure Emotions.

‘Surviving Siblings’ With Author, Brittany Day
On this episode of The Power of Love Show we welcome special guest, Brittany Day.
Brittany Day is a surviving sibling after the tragic loss of her brother, Eric, during her childhood.
Experiencing grief at a young age proved to be confusing with limited resources for support.
It wasn't until the death of her twin daughters, Sophie & Ruby, who were stillborn that she started to understand and embrace grief.
Realizing the still-limited resources for siblings who are grieving, she co-wrote a book with her daughter, Eliza, entitled ‘I’m Still a Big Sister’, explaining stillbirth and providing a glimpse at life after.
They donate copies of the book as well as sibling bereavement memory boxes to their local hospitals and others by request.

‘Curating Grief’ With Founder of The Grief Gallery, Charlene Lam
On this episode of The Power of Love Show we welcome special guest, Charlene Lam.
Charlene Lam is a certified grief coach, curator, speaker, and the founder of The Grief Gallery. She helps grieving people to navigate the practical and emotional aftermath of losing a loved one. And when they’re ready, to transform their pain, loss and grief into something beautiful so they can move forward with living their own fullest lives.
With degrees in mass communication and design, and over a decade of experience as a content strategist for creative brands, she turned her story-finding instincts and narrative crafting skills to grief work after the sudden death of her mother in 2013.
She speaks about the power of art, creativity, storytelling and narrative development for healthy grieving and post-traumatic growth, and shares her accessible and inspiring Curating Grief framework for processing grief with grit and grace.
She helps busy professionals, entrepreneurs and overburdened grieving people to navigate the practical and emotional aftermath of losing a loved one so they can emerge with their health, livelihoods and relationships intact.
As curator of The Grief Gallery, she presents exhibitions and events exploring death and grief with particular focus on the belongings of loved ones lost during international design events and festivals, including NYCxDESIGN, DesignTO (Toronto) and the London Design Festival.
She’s the author of the forthcoming book Curating Grief: A Creative Guide to Choosing What to Keep After a Loved One Dies.
A proud New Yorker (like her mother!), she currently splits her time between NYC and Lisbon, and travels frequently for work and pleasure.
