The Intentional Clinician Episode #10 Poetry Changes Everything with Fable, the poet.
In this episode, I interview Marcel "Fable" Price, the current Poet Laureate of Grand Rapids, Michigan. We discuss poetry and the transformative act of writing and self-expression. Further, we discuss how participating in a live poetry event can be helpful for people of all ages. Fable and I discuss our current "superconnected" internet culture and how over use of the internet can lead to "disconnection" and how putting down your phone and picking up a pen and paper can help people struggling with mental illness. In addition, getting out of your domicle and going to an open mic or live poetry even can be a way to sublimate your pain and difficulties into art. We discuss Fable's journey from a difficult time in his life into his love for writing, poetry, spoken word and hip hop--and how poetry is now actually his job. All of this and much more is discussed in this episode.
