Rediscovering your creative self through recovery with Melissa

In this conversation, Melissa opens up about her journey with long COVID, a transformative experience that has reshaped her identity as a person, creative, dancer, and storyteller. She reflects on how the illness has woven itself into the fabric of her life, and how it brought up fear, loss, grief, anger... and also, its own kind of medicine. About Melissa Before the pandemic, Melissa Mansfield was a marketing professional who spent her off hours producing her passion project - a video series about traveling the world through dance, in which she lived abroad learning the iconic dances of places like Havana and Buenos Aires. In 2022, after a two-year hiatus, she traveled to South America to produce a new season, focusing on Cali, Colombia - the “Salsa Capital of the World”. Ten days into her trip, she contracted covid for the first time. This began a two-year journey of illness, loss, grief and - ultimately - recovery. She is now navigating a new way of being a traveler, storyteller and dancer - forever changed by her long covid experience. Follow her on Instagram About me Hello, I'm Pascale!
