How Curiosity Fuels Your Creative Power with Terise Lang
Terise Lang is a certified life, health, and wellness coach with a lifelong interest in and love of all things creative. She joins me today for a wide-ranging discussion of the power of creativity, including the way she uses creativity in her work, how our creativity is so often socialized out of us in the name of more conformity, our tendency to define creativity too narrowly and then decide that we don’t have it, the hidden creativity in fields like software engineering and cooking, how managers unconsciously limit their staff’s creativity while trying to foster it, the impact of artificial intelligence on our creative lives, and more.

52:47 Joy and growth flourish when creative self-expression is valued.
55:43 Society elevates machines, but AI can't replace human creativity.
01:00:42 AI uses resources, regurgitates information, can't replicate unique human writing.
