You built a life that makes sense on paper.

You just can’t find yourself in it.

My Story In Motion

The connection you’re craving isn’t out there.

You haven’t lost yourself, exactly. You’ve just been away for a long time — busy being capable, busy being fine for everyone else. Coming back doesn’t take a five-year plan. It takes noticing what’s still there, waiting — alone, or with the women who walk beside me. We just need to practice remembering — the connection you want is the one you lost with yourself.

“

The answer was never in the thinking. It was in the feeling — the small moments that make me feel present, joyful, alive. Once you connect to that, there’s no going back.

Why This Work

That realisation changed everything.

My path back to myself was never straight.

There are layers to these experiences, and some of us go far deeper into them than others. For a long time, I believed the science mattered most — the mind-body connection, what’s actually happening in the brain when we’re stuck. I studied that seriously: meditation, neuroscience, NLP, energy work. And for years, that’s where I stopped. I hadn’t yet studied what art itself could do — not only for creating beautiful things, but as an actual doorway, especially for people facing something real.

Then I reconnected with making things — creating, and all the feeling I used to have when I was younger, when art was simply a way to connect to something much deeper in me. That realisation changed everything.

My own life had followed a familiar shape: living in a way that made sense to everyone around me, for as long as I could manage it, until I simply couldn’t any longer. What came after wasn’t a plan. It was a slow return to what I actually valued — and expressive arts became one of the clearest paths back. It gave me room to experiment, to make a mess, to find out what was true without needing to explain it first. It’s the reason my life looks the way it does now.

I’ll admit I used to be skeptical too — not of art exactly, but of the idea that making something could matter much when someone was in real pain. It felt, at times, beside the point. What changed my mind wasn’t a study. It was watching it happen, over and over, in rooms I was holding: a woman moving from a place that felt genuinely dark into something lighter — not because I told her what to feel, but because a page, a colour, a shape gave the part of her that couldn’t yet find words a way to be heard.

That’s the work now. Not fixing anything. Just holding the space where that shift gets to happen.

The Making

Expressive arts, explained properly.

Expressive arts is a way of working with feelings and stuck places using your hands instead of only your thoughts — a shape, a mark, a colour, giving the part of you that doesn’t have words yet a way to speak. No art background needed. Not having one often helps: there’s nothing to get right, so there’s nothing standing between you and what actually wants to come through.

I work 1:1 and I lead groups through painting, drawing, and making things to bypass the part of the mind that keeps people stuck. It’s also about building a community of women who truly want to create the life they want, with others who feel the same.

What People Tell Me Afterwards

A few things people have said.

This session helped me land deeper into my own truth and express it in a way that feels natural and honest. I walked away with a clearer sense of my authentic voice, practical tools to communicate from presence, and the confidence to share my work in a way that truly reflects who I am.

Mapy · Astrologist

Our session was so powerful — thank you from the bottom of my heart. I came in with the feeling that I would do anything “to get rid of this,” but the deepest insight I received was that there is nothing to get rid of. Instead, what I truly need is to embrace and integrate these parts of me.

Mariana · Shiatsu Professional

You came forth as much more relaxed this time, Renata. You sounded totally with what you were delivering — therefore, more approachable. Thank you so much for everything you shared with us. It was an invaluable experience!

Who I Am

Renata Pieroni

I’m a designer, visual artist and expressive arts practitioner (in certification), working where making and healing meet. Twenty years studying the mind, the body, and how they talk to each other taught me the theory — coming back to art taught me the rest. Now I hold that same space for others, through circles, 1:1 work, and workshops that start with listening, not analysing, so what’s been hidden gets to surface on its own.
