Creativity: A Conversation with LJ and Jane


Listen Later

The topic of our conversations in June is Creativity. Jane and LJ open it up with a definition— “Creativity encompasses the ability to discover new and original ideas, connections, and solutions to problems. It’s a part of our drive as humans—fostering resilience, sparking joy, and providing opportunities for self-actualization”— and an examination of creativity in our daily lives. Life requires regular acts of ingenuity, in other words, we as humans are creative every single day.

A recent article in Psychology Today suggests that “Creativity can be acquired and honed at any age or experience level… Innovation is not some divine gift; it’s actually the skilled application of knowledge in new and exciting ways. It requires changing up your normal routine, stepping outside of typical comfort zones, and paying attention to the present moment.”

This conversation explores ways to become more aware and thus amplify of your own creativity.

Whether your drink is espresso, Cappuccino, latté, cortado, or even decaf, pour yourself a double shot and join us.
