In this episode of SocioTalks, we are joined by Sheetal, the inspiring founder of Clownselors, an organization dedicated to medical clowning. With eight years of experience, Sheetal and her team bring joy and mental relief to patients in hospitals, elderly care homes, orphanages, and other vulnerable spaces. Inspired by a chance encounter and the spirit of Patch Adams, Sheetal has created a unique movement that combines entertainment and therapy to improve mental health.
Join us as she shares his journey and insights, including:
Starting Clownselors: The vision behind Clownselors, beginning as a small volunteer-based group, growing into a life-changing force across multiple care environments.
Medical Clowning’s Impact: Heartwarming stories of reducing anxiety in children before surgeries, bringing smiles to critically ill patients, and the therapeutic value of laughter.
Overcoming Challenges: Managing volunteer availability, fundraising hurdles, and the importance of community support and resilience in their mission.
Sustaining the Movement: Efforts to expand sustainably through corporate partnerships, training healthcare staff in medical clowning, and developing future programs.
Personal Resilience: Balancing emotional involvement and self-care, and the power of humor as a tool for mental health and well-being.
Clownselors envision a world where healing through laughter is an integral part of healthcare. Every smile counts, and Clownselors leads this transformation, inspiring others to embrace laughter as a healing force.
Get inspired by her journey and learn how Clownselors is making a difference for communities in need. Don’t forget to like, share, and let us know your thoughts in the comments!
