Daily Creative with Todd Henry

Trust + Enough


Listen Later

In this episode of Daily Creative, we dive into the essential dynamics of trust within creative organizations and our personal relationship with money. We start with a discussion on how trust is foundational in the creative process, emphasizing the significance of a reciprocal relationship between team members and leadership. When trust erodes, it can lead to workplace inefficiencies and cause talented individuals to leave.

We then explore how our internal trust, particularly in the context of money, influences our professional lives. Our guest, Elizabeth Husserl, author of "The Power of Enough," joins us to unravel the complexities of valuing creative work in a financial market. She offers insights into how personal narratives around money can either empower or hinder our careers and stresses the importance of understanding and re-shaping our relationship with money to match our creative aspirations.

Key Learnings from the Episode:

  1. Trust in creative organizations must be a two-way street—team members need to trust leadership, and leadership needs to trust the team.
  2. The natural cycles of creative intensity and recovery must be acknowledged to avoid overwhelming team members.
  3. Personal relationships with money greatly affect how creative professionals value their work and handle financial matters.
  4. Understanding one’s personal money story is crucial for improving financial decision-making and satisfaction in professional endeavors.
  5. Separating personal value from monetary value can lead to a healthier, more strategic approach to creative work.
