6-Week Sketchbook Journey through Grief, Growth, and Expression

Sundays, July 13 - August 17

Turn your messy emotions into meaningful art.

A 6-week guided sketchbook journey to help you process grief, connect with your emotions, and reclaim your creative voice—one feeling at a time.

You’ve been carrying so much. Not the kind of grief people ask about.

The quiet kind. The unspoken kind.

The transitions, the tangled feelings, the in-between seasons with no name.

Maybe you’ve felt…

  • Numb, stuck, or creatively blocked

  • Like you have so much to process, but no real outlet for release

  • That journaling feels stale, and talking doesn’t always help

  • A desire to process your emotions in a creative way

Imagine if instead of bottling it up…you could make space for it. Give it color. Shape. Movement.

Imagine seeing your grief, your awe, your voice—held gently on the page.
Not to “fix” yourself. But to witness yourself. To feel more like you again.

🌀 The Emotional Journey We’ll Take…

From tender awareness of loss → through transition and uncertainty → to reconnecting with wonder → discovering inner direction → and finally, confidently taking up space

This is a path of:

  1. Naming unspoken grief

  2. Navigating change

  3. Reawakening the heart

  4. Clarifying what’s emerging

  5. Expressing yourself boldly

✅ A completed Feelings Book full of meaningful, honest art
✅ A regular creative ritual to keep drawing through your emotions
✅ A sense of lightness and clarity from naming what’s been unspoken
✅ Renewed trust in your voice and confidence to express your feelings

By the end of 6 weeks, you’ll have…

This isn’t therapy.
It’s not about getting the drawing “right.”
And it’s definitely not about being an artist.

This is about slowing down, tuning inwards, and letting your feelings take shape—gently, honestly, and compassionately. You’ll be guided every step of the way.

No perfection, no pressure. Just presence.

Hi! I’m Rukmini Poddar, artist, author of Draw Your Feelings, and your facilitator for this 6-week journey into parts work and creative self-leadership.

Since 2016, I’ve been exploring my emotions through drawing—and teaching others to do the same. My work blends expressive art with the powerful lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help people better connect with the different parts of themselves.

I believe creativity is a profound tool for self-discovery and healing—and I’m honored to help you draw your way home to your Self.

Testimonials from Previous Students

“I stopped seeing emotions as problems to fix and started seeing them as parts of me—beloved, strange, colorful companions. Drawing them helped me feel love and affection for what I used to struggle with. It was freeing and soul-enriching.”

—Anja Fehrenbacher 🕊️

Aashish:
“I’ve always felt intimidated by drawing, but this workshop helped me express feelings in ways writing never could. I’m excited to keep integrating this work.”

Sangita:
“This course helped me connect creativity with my healing journey. I had a breakthrough when my caring part expressed how it saw me—it shifted the way I speak to myself.”

Adina:
“This was my first time exploring both IFS and expressive drawing. I didn’t expect much, but the course was beyond anything I could’ve imagined. It helped me discover parts of myself I didn’t know existed and made me more emotionally courageous.”

FAQs

  •  Not at all. This is about expression, not skill. All you need is openness and paper.

  • All sessions are recorded and sent out the same day. You can move at your own pace.

  • A simple sketchbook and a few basic drawing tools—like pens, markers, or colored pencils—are perfect. I’ll also send a suggested supply list if you’d like to explore more materials.

  •  It’s therapeutic, but not therapy. It’s a guided, creative wellness experience.
