Listen "Being Curious About Creativity "

Episode Synopsis

In today's episode, Stef and Nicole take inspiration from the book called "Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear" by Elizabeth Gilbert to talk about what creativity means and how it can be expressed in daily life.  They explore ideas around perfectionism, the myth about what creative endeavours should look like, how creativity relates to problem-solving and ways to generate more creativity and curiosity. 
The quote mentioned at the beginning of the episode reads: “Are you considering becoming a creative person? Too late, you already are one. To even call somebody “a creative person” is almost laughably redundant; creativity is the hallmark of our species. We have the senses for it; we have the curiosity for it; we have the opposable thumbs for it; we have the rhythm for it; we have the language and the excitement and the innate connection to divinity for it.”
