In this week's episode, I sit down with the truly remarkable Nesha Mistry — artist, emotional wellness mentor, and host of the Vulnerable Voices Podcast — for one of the most moving conversations this show has ever featured.
Nesha is particularly honest about her journey: from a career spanning law and HR, to navigating profound mental health struggles from as young as nine years old — feelings of isolation, a lost sense of identity, and a moment of crisis that brought her to her lowest point. What followed was nothing short of transformational. A guided meditation, an unopened set of her mum's acrylic paints, and the quiet calling to create — and in that moment, something shifted.
We explore how painting became Nesha's gateway back to herself, and how that experience has since evolved into a purposeful business built around creativity as a tool for healing. She shares the deeply meaningful work she now does through her art workshops — spaces designed with safety, vulnerability and individual expression at their heart.
If you've ever felt like you might have set creativity aside, or you're navigating your own healing journey and looking for a new way in, Nesha's story is a powerful reminder that art can be a bridge back to yourself — and to life.
Enjoy the show!
