[Video] Transforming Pain into Creative Expression
Thinking Out Loud [Live] Episode 15
In this episode of Thinking Out Loud Live, we have a discussion with Mingjie Zhai about her own experience in dealing with depression and turning pain into creative expression through journals.
She's also the founder of The Love Story, a new media non-profit organization, where they stand to help individuals transform their pain into passion, self-destructive behaviors into self-expressive ones, and love loss into a love story through courage, connection, and contribution.
Their mission is to take away the stigma of depression and lower suicidal thoughts for the bereaved and brokenhearted. We believe that the key to overcoming pain is to first embrace it and to let it fuel creativity and passion.

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but with your help, we can inspire people to start day one and make a new ending.
