What if personal growth wasn't a sterile checklist but a living artwork in progress?
Cultural strategist Erin McDonald invites us to swap self-optimism for creative composition, turning burnout scars into brushstrokes and neurodivergent quirks into colour.
Part memoir, part master class, this spoken word creation shows how to begin again, layer by intentional layer, until your life finally looks like truth. Cultural strategist, speaker, and the author of Masterpiece You: A Creative Guide to Becoming Who You Already Are, Erin McDonald brings a unique lens to transformation, drawing from their work in arts leadership, public policy, and lived experience with burnout, neurodivergence, and chronic pain. Their approach blends strategic insight with creative metaphor, inviting us to stop treating our lives like projects to fix and start living as works of art in progress.
From managing provincial art collections to recovering from spinal surgery, Erin has learned that true growth isn’t linear. It’s layered, textured, and deeply human. Their message both a reckoning and an invitation: to begin again, to choose new colours, and to see scars not as flaws, but as brushstrokes becoming. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
