"We try to minimize and overlook grief in our culture. Yet most if not all of us will have an experience of grief - or many - in our life." Celebrated Seattle Actor Amy Thone joins Artist Mental Health Stories to discuss life lessons she's learned throughout her career in the theater, the recent loss of her teenage daughter Stella to cancer, and how she lives through her grief. Stella may have 'transformed', but she lives on in many ways, including through Amy's work in support of the Stella Blue High School in rural Kenya - named in her daughter's memory.  Co-presented by 4Culture, Coping 101's Artist Mental Health Stories amplify voices from King County's cultural sector to empower individual artists, uplift the creative community and destigmatize mental health from a teen's perspective. No matter our age or background we all face challenges, and there are many healthy ways to find balance.
