With years of experience in different fields, as a qualified nurse, counsellor and teacher she knows that life can throw curve balls and has discovered that tapping into the creative part of ourselves can often bring different perspectives, allowing discovery of new ways of thinking and of looking at life.
Chrissie is a wife of nearly 40 years, a mum to two beautiful daughters with two 'sons in love', and has three incredible grandchildren! (She is biased on that one!)
Chrissie has recently restarted blogging, sharing some of the ways arts and craft activities can endorse, support and help form new ways of thinking. Using examples from her own life, often through a humorous lens, she hopes it might encourage and lead to deeper thoughts and experiences for others. Check it out here :-)
Chrissie believes the universe's creator always meant for us to understand just how deeply loved, valuable, and unique we are. With a background as an art teacher, she finds joy in helping others connect with their true selves. She believes we are all inherently creative and carry phenomenal potential within ourselves.
Over recent years she has explored life creatively through designing and making mosaics and this book includes many pictures of her art work in the sharing of her story. Entitled ‘Broken Pieces’ it records her prophetic and creative journey through life, giving down to earth examples of how creativity and connection with our Creator can help us through life's challenges.
Having worked globally with children at risk, as a foster carer and working for a number of different charities, it is her writing, workshop facilitation and commissioned art work that bring a creative perspective to otherwise difficult experiences.
She tells of her own experiences with miscarriage, cancer and many other challenges. Every chapter tells a story and laughter and tears are often found together.
She is a passionate advocate for people being enabled to discover how precious and loved they are. She has been known to ROAR - at the subtle ways things can creep in to destroy the knowledge of our uniqueness and the fact we have been created with such beautiful complexity and are truly worthy of being loved.
She lives in Oxford where her home acts as a hub for discovery and well being.
