Welcome back, neurodivergent creatives! In today's episode, we're diving into the endless ocean of opportunities that our regular, everyday moments hold for us. 

Picture this: you're in the middle of a shower, out for a stroll with your dog, or maybe you’re cruising in your car, and then BAM! Something epic zaps right into your brain. YEP, THAT JUICY MOMENT! That’s what we’ll be talking about today, neurosparkly friends!Discover how seemingly mundane moments, those seemingly random thoughts during routine activities, can be the birthplace of your next big idea, novel, or creative project. Join Caitlin Liz Fisher as they unpack the magic behind our most random creative ideas and how they can fuel our artistic expressions!

Episode Highlights:

✅ The concept of "shower thoughts" and how these can spiral into expansive creative projects, including novels, art, and more.

✅ Strategies for capturing and nurturing your creative ideas, from using notebooks to leveraging the digital convenience of note-taking apps.

✅ The journey from a single creative thought to a complex, multi-layered project, illustrated through personal anecdotes and success stories.

✅ Tips for refining and developing your initial ideas into coherent and compelling narratives or artworks.

Noteworthy Quote:

💬 "Please be full of yourself. Who else are you supposed to be full of? You are a creative spirit in a human body. Use the human body to write the story. Use the human body to make the art. You exist to create, so fucking run with it!"

💬 "Did you know that the average person has 60,000 to 70,000 thoughts a day, and once in a while, you get a real fucking banger.  Like, you have an amazing thought, and you're like, holy crap. That's good. I should do something with that."

💬 “60,000 to 70000 thoughts a day... When you get that 1 that feels like you've been struck by lightning? GO. Do it! Do the thing.”
