On this episode of Step Up to Your Best Life Now, Jarica Walsh shares her story of becoming an Artist, reconnecting with her Osage heritage and how her art is continuing to evolve and grow. The pandemic inspired her Hope Flags project. "The Hope Flags are an act of collective healing in response to collective trauma.

Each flag is a visual memory of a garden, of someone who turned to gardening as a way of coping with the uncertainty we all experienced with the onset of the pandemic."
