In the inaugural episode of Writing Changes Lives, host Judy Howard speaks with author Pamela Applegate and artist John Sandoval about how creative expression has transformed their lives. Pamela shares how journaling after her daughter’s tragic passing evolved into her book, Jumping for Joy, which became a powerful tool for processing grief and celebrating her daughter’s life. She reflects on the healing journey of writing, the importance of facing grief, and the support she found in a writing group. John, who designed the book’s cover, discusses how the project helped him overcome shyness and discover his passion for scratchboard art. Together, their stories highlight the transformative power of creativity in navigating loss, fostering healing, and inspiring others to pursue their artistic dreams.
