Creativity can be elusive, and something that we don’t think we have … however I propose that we all do! The thing is we usually don’t have a relationship with it, or if we do, it’s a negative or unhealthy one. So what would it be like to create an amazing relationship with creativity?
In this super rich and inspiring conversation with Ashwak, we cover the following topics:
- Creativity resuscitates and brings us back to life because it requires that all of our senses are alive
- Creativity is self expression, a way we connect with others, loving and being loved, as well as a rebellious act
- Have to have a relationship with your emotions in order to have a relationship with creativity
- How to cultivate a love affair with your creativity and follow its flow
