Never give up
From leading Healing Through Art workshops to sharing her personal journey, Connie-Vee brings a unique perspective to conversations about resilience and identity.
Her journey
The journey
of a storyteller.
Connie-Vee has always loved the arts. She grew up performing music with her colorful family, including her uncles, The Chambers Brothers, singing at venues like the Roxy, the Whisky-a-Go-Go and the Hollywood Bowl.
Today, her storytelling through words and images celebrates the power of seeing ourselves reflected in art, books, and on screen. Her work explores the courage to overcome trauma, navigate disability, and reclaim our voices, reminding us that our experiences do not diminish our worth and every story deserves to be seen, heard, and celebrated.
“When life's journey intersects with art, something extraordinary happens. We begin to look deeper into ourselves. Search for meaning. Be courageous and tell our stories.” — Connie-Vee
