The Creativity Myth

Solo Episode: In today’s episode, we’re taking a deep dive into one of the biggest misconceptions out there: the myth that creativity is a rare, magical trait reserved for a chosen few. We’ve all heard it before—phrases like “I’m just not the creative type” or “Creativity is only for artists.” But the truth is, creativity isn’t an elusive gift; it’s a skill and a mindset that anyone can cultivate. Join me as we break down the common myths surrounding creativity and explore why these myths are so pervasive. You’ll learn why creativity is not about being naturally talented or waiting for inspiration to strike, but about tapping into a state of curiosity, play, and problem-solving that we all possess. We’ll discuss what real creativity looks like in everyday life, why we often underestimate our own creative potential, and practical tips on how to reframe your thinking to embrace your inner creative. Whether you consider yourself an artist or someone who struggles to draw a straight line, this episode will leave you inspired and empowered to approach creativity from a new perspective.
