the Playful Creative: Episode 1 - Gary's Playful Rebellion

Welcome to the Playful Creative! A place to explore how playfulness, art, curiosity, and creativity enrich the human experience. I’m your host, Sarah Moyle, a Visual Storyteller and Creative Catalyst. I’m endlessly curious about the ways people bring creativity, experimentation, art, and play into different areas of their lives, so listen in to learn from play experts, artist, musicians, and so many more interesting people. On this very first episode of the Playful Creative, we welcome Gary Ware, of Breakthrough Play. Gary Ware is a creative and strategic Play Consultant. By day, Gary helps companies and professionals level up their skills. By night he is an improve comedian. In between all of Gary’s passions, his most desirous one is helping people become the best versions of themselves through fun and entertainment. His first book, the Playful Rebellion, which was released in fall 2022, is part autobiography, part guidebook to living a playful, curious life. Today, Gary will share his story, a little bit about our book, and we’ll talk about the importance of play for innovation, life balance, and resilience.
