Callie B. Elwayns
Educator and storyteller draws on her personal struggles to empower women through creativity
Callie B. Elwayns is an executive coach, a mentor, a somatic movement educator, a storyteller, and a performer who helps women step into their voice and own their story in order to realize their full potential.
“I developed a way to support women to move through the small and large traumas or stresses that hold us back and to really own our voice. I believe… that art is the highest form of human expression and that we can cultivate art out of our struggles, and it’s a way of helping us not only support our own healing but also it’s a really powerful way to connect with community in sharing our story.”
As founder, curator, and CEO of Bold and Visible, Elwayns incorporates artistic principles as a means to foster women, creative practices, and stepping into their own through somatic movement and storytelling.
