Ever felt stuck on a problem and wished you could look at it with completely fresh eyes? In this week’s Summer School Creative Nudge, Claire Bridges invites you to borrow brilliance from the most unexpected places whether it’s a magician’s art of misdirection or a Formula 1 pit crew’s lightning speed. 

Join us as we explore the Related Worlds tool, a favourite method for breaking creative ruts and remixing inspiration from fields far outside your own. Ready to give your creativity a shake-up? 

Highlights:

• Claire explains the “Related Worlds” tool
• Hear how Pret A Manger supercharged their customer service by taking a cue from Formula One racing!
• Prompts to push you to “go weird”
• Google, watch documentaries, or talk to real-life experts in an unexpected field to see how they crack their own challenges.

Your Creative Challenge:

Pick a sticky problem. Then finish this sentence: “This is like the challenge that [person/industry] faces when they do [X].” Get specific and the more unexpected, the better! Next, discover one principle or method from that unrelated world, and adapt it to your situation. Who knows? The answer may be hiding where you least expect it.

Bonus:

Want the full breakdown? Listen back to the longer “Related Worlds” deep-dive in episode 9.

What is the Creative Nudge Summer School:

• A free, six-week email series dropping into your in-box each week, get a simple creative tool or tip from Claire
• A partner podcast episode to help you go deeper and learn on the move
• A practical worksheet or prompt to instantly apply the nudge to real work or life projects
• An optional “buddy system” to check in and share learnings boosting accountability and connection
• A short, snappy WhatsApp-style audio note from Claire with bonus stories and inspiration
• All the resources and worksheets are yours to download for your own use or for running creative sessions with your team.

Claire’s approach is all about building creative agility and confidence through small, consistent habits so you finish the summer with a toolkit you can actually use. At the end, you’ll receive a creative habit map to guide your next steps.
