Whilst Jackie was making light of the situation that desperately needs sunshine, the jump between the rhymes and speaking to the audience with explanations didn't allow me to fully enjoy the show enough to get into the storytelling of her poetry.
Imagine preparing for a major performance only to find yourself crying in a Wagamamas. That's exactly what happened to Jacky Power, an addiction psychologist and poet, as she navigated the highs and lows of performing at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. In this episode of The Therapeutic Poet, Jacky opens up about her chaotic journey, from botched preparations to unexpected moments of clarity.
You'll hear about her hilarious encounter with budgie smugglers and why her flyers turned out to be a complete waste. Despite technical hiccups and sparse audiences, Jacky's story is one of resilience and the unexpected support she found along the way. Whether you're an artist or just someone who appreciates the therapeutic power of creativity, Jacky's reflections offer a candid look at the messiness and magic of pursuing your passions.
