What Dreamers Do 30-Day Creative Living Challenge
Host: Carla Gover
In this episode, Carla Gover shares her behind-the-scenes thoughts about why she created the What Dreamers Do 30-Day Creative Living Challenge, kicking off on April 15th. Carla Gover shares her passion for "creating in public" and explains the power of art and community in counteracting negativity in today's world. She invites listeners to participate in daily creative acts—or just show up and lurk—and to connect on Substack for prompts, mutual inspiration, and sharing.
