In this powerful episode of The Pretty Dope Women's Podcast, I sit down with the incredible Barbara Salzburg Matthews—an artist, teacher, and advocate for living well with Parkinson's Disease. Diagnosed in 2020, Barbara shares how she has used mime as a therapeutic tool and creative outlet to manage her symptoms. We explore her journey from teaching high school art to becoming a mentor and using mime to help others in the Parkinson’s community.
