Creative flow, creative blocks… Venus flytraps? I interview extra special guest husband, Mon San Sebastian, on creativity!

 

This episode was recorded from the balcony of a Tagaytay bed and breakfast.

 

So aside from discussions on:

  • How creativity is like a venus flytrap
  • Trying to make sure said venus flytraps don’t run out of… creativity flies? feat. Mario Kart
  • What creativity looks like outside of artistic fields, and playing a game of how-would-you-connect-these-random-things (Mon’s was a dog, a water bottle and harm reduction; mine was a motorcycle, a towel, and the concept of bidets)

    •  

    You’ll also hear the sweet sweet sounds of Mother Nature herself! The breeze, the birds, and the intermission because we had to stop to admire and watch the sunset, whew
