Lisa Joy Hesse - Getting Past the Pandemic: Exercises for Healing

Today we talked with Lisa Joy Hesse.  As the COVID-19 pandemic began and wore on there was a lot of uncertainty, and a lot of emotional toll.  Now, with 55% of Minnesotans getting vaccinated, numbers are down and mask mandates have gone away and life is getting back to normal.  But it might not feel normal.  Lisa Joy Hesse is a mixed media and fiber artist, a dynamic presenter and certified infection preventionist.  She lives in the woods of northern Minnesota and she has come out with a workbook called “Getting Past the Pandemic – Exercises for healing the emotional trauma of COVID-19."
