'That's all we've got as well in this age of AI… we have to put heart and soul into what we create.'

When someone cheerfully tells you that when one door closes another door opens in the midst of the rawness of redundancy, you'd be forgiven for wanting to punch them. Eleanor Tweddell certainly did. But then she made a conscious decision to 'lean in' to the idea of another door. It turns out that opportunity is often disguised as messy chaos – it's all about how you choose to view it.

Eleanor shares how her 'Another Door' blog, podcast and book came about – the idea that wouldn't leave her alone, the conversations that moved it forward and the creative process that begins – like all good things – with a whiteboard and is so very, very different from the polished, orderly approach of her corporate comms background.

This is a conversation about what it means to be human in the act of creation, and to seek out connection before your ideas feel ready to share. It's about jealousy and comparisonitis and courage and designing for your reader, and it might just be the best thing you hear this week.
