- Create Outside the Box! - Four Year Anniversary!
Season 4 Finale: Celebrating Four Years & Embracing What’s Next
In this special anniversary episode, we take a moment to reflect on four years of Create Outside the Box! —highlighting the incredible artists we’ve interviewed, the powerful stories they’ve shared, and the creative risks they’ve taken.
Host Corinne Schaefer shares a personal update on how the podcast is evolving alongside the growth of Creative OPERAtions. As we wrap up Season 4, we’re hitting pause—not as an ending, but as a way to make space for reflection, realignment, and sustainable creativity.
What’s next? We’re not entirely sure yet. Season 5 might look a little different—whether that’s a shorter season or a handful of special episodes throughout the year. But our mission remains the same: to amplify voices that are redefining what it means to be an artist today.
