Erica Olenski Johansen speaks up in Episode 52 about how burnout was the catalyst for change and advocacy for herself and her family. Being careful to balance the needs of herself with the needs of her family, Erica found herself to the arts of various kinds to engage her heart and mind. This passion became August s Artists so that other families experiencing medical traumas have what they need to express themselves in art and share it with one another and the world! A great lesson learned is that art is more naturally occurring when you protect boundaries that you ve set up.

Erica has proven that self-care, advocacy, and servant leadership can not just help heal, but also help inspire and motivate meaningful industry change. After spending a career in healthcare, Erica found herself divorced from an alcoholic and supporting her infant son as his primary caregiver in his brain cancer recovery after being diagnosed at only 5-months-old. Despite the odds, Erica persevered through burnout and depression to become an Ironman in September 2021 and was recognized by the healthcare industry as a leading voice on patient and caregiver advocacy in March 2022. Additionally, as a way to honor her son's experience and give back to families who have had medical trauma impact their lives, Erica is launching a non-profit called August's Artists to provide hospitalized children and their families with access to coloring materials during inpatient hospitalizations and personalized artwork that inspires healing.
