Poetry, love, and recovery (feat. Kali)

Kali (kmpoetry14) hosts poetry workshops for people with BPD
through Emotions Matter. She shares about her own lived
experience, the moment she realized she had the ability to
change, finding and redefining love, and the impact poetry has
had on her recovery. 


Kali earned her MFA in 2010 from Lesley University. She has been
published in Gaslight
Magazine, Boston Literary Magazine, Balancing the Tides, The
Novice Writer, Tupelo Press 30/30 Project, Connotations Press and
most recently became one of the winners of Newport Life Writing
Contest.  She works full-time for a family business and is
committed to her volunteer work with Emotions Matter to help
others on the journey. She is "loud and proud" about her BPD
diagnosis and Laurie loved chatting with her!
