Halim Flowers spent 22 years incarcerated - including two years in solitary confinement as a teenager - and emerged as a thriving painter, writer and creator. But this conversation isn't about prison - it’s about the emotional prisons people live in every day: shame, fear, trauma, self-hatred, heartbreak, the stories we get trapped inside and can’t seem to escape. How music, art, imagination, and self-expression can help all people process emotion, reconnect to themselves, and feel free again.
