Who we are & why we are

Welcome to the gallery site of Broken Light Collective. We are artists of all levels and abilities who are affected by mental illness. We create and we share our work for the therapeutic benefits to us, as well as others who may be struggling and feeling scared and alone. Together we can move from disconnected to collective.

Photo taken by contributor Meg, a recovered alcoholic who has discovered not only how glorious life can be, but that everyone can have access to such joy. She has found purpose in supporting people in, not only living lives they love, but in designing the very lives they want to be living. She is a Certified Life Coach and master communicator; an advocate for people’s voices to be heard. She publishes an advice blog,Take It from Meg. She also enjoys spending time with friends and family, particularly outdoors, and especially on her bicycle.

About this photo: “This photograph was taken at Strawberry Fields, a section of Central Park in NYC that is across the street from where John Lennon lived and was killed. I think of Lennon often when I consider how love has made a difference in my life. At my lowest points in dealing with alcoholism and varying degrees of depression, love has always been able to break through the clouds and give me hope. 

‘Love is all you need.’ ~ John Lennon.”
