All children are inherently creative, but somewhere along the way in adulthood we all start to lose a little of the courage and joy that once fueled our creativity. By the time we are in the midst of a professional career, we are often too risk-adverse to take the chances that come with creative expression. But Dr. Jabani Bennett says living a creative life is possible for all of us, and in fact often necessary for success at work. As a self-identified creative, she has taught others to rediscover their joy by looking at life through a creative lens. As a bonus to our chat in this episode, Jabani also shares how her stepfather, Dean Blaine Hudson, expressed his creativity and what his legacy as the Dean of Arts and Sciences at UofL means to all of us today.
