S8, Ep 6: Sparking Your Creativity

For a podcast about creativity, we're a little surprised that we've not really covered this topic before! In this episode, we dig into the topic of sparking your creativity and what that might look like. We also talk about the myths that kill creativity and how we look for the sparks the ignite the fires of our creative process. As with most of our conversations, this one definitely wanders up and down and around and about and we're sure there was plenty more we could have covered. But, ultimately, we hope it sparks a little creativity in you when you give it a listen!

Normal service resumed this month and we're back to our regular length episodes (you'll be pleased to hear).  Better yet, this one is with a guest (our first this season!). We're talking to the delightful Becky Benfield-Humberstone, a business coach with quite the varied experience under her belt!  In true Creative Reboot form, we really meander through a whole plethora of conversations in this one, hence the name of the episode (and you'll have to listen to see why!). We're super excited to introduce you to Becky and her world.  As always, we'd love it if you could rate us (5 stars please!) and write a review for us on your favourite podcast platform.

Well heck, we think we've outdone ourselves on this one. This episode is an extra special BUMPER episode, by which we mean it's a solid 2 hours long and full of epicness! Don't worry, you don't have to listen to it all in one sitting (we're ADHD, we get it). But we do think it's worth listening to when you get the chance because we dig in with four of our previous guests who are all neurodivergent to figure out how it is they manage to get sh*t done, in spite of their neurospiciness. This is one episode you'll want to take notes from! As always, we'd love it if you could rate us (5 stars please!) and write a review for us on your favourite podcast platform.

Welcome to this episode of the Creative Reboot podcast! We couldn't resist going all playful this month. That's right, we tackled the topic of work vs play! It turns out our neurodivergent brains have had us doing a lot of unlearning over the last couple of years and we're gamifying, playing and experimenting with the way we do business and harness our creativity these days.  Join us for a super joyful episode!  As always, we'd love it if you could rate us (5 stars please!) and write a review for us on your favourite podcast platform.

Welcome to this episode of the Creative Reboot podcast! This month we're taking on the big juicy topic of fear and visibility as creatives and business owners and it was a topic that took us in all kinds of directions. Chaos ensued but we think there were some great points made (we hope you think so too!). Least of all the consideration of merch that includes words across our bottoms!  Grab a cuppa and settle in. This is going to be quite a ride!  As always, we'd love it if you could rate us (5 stars please!) and write a review for us on your favourite podcast platform.

Welcome to a new season of the Creative Reboot podcast! It's season 8 and our 5th year of chatting about all things creative. We start this episode outlining what this season is going to look like before we dig into our special interest topic (hello neurospiciness!)... NOTEBOOKS! Turns out we have a lot to say about this modest form of capturing thoughts and ideas and we can't wait to share it with you. Let us know if this is a nerd out topic for you too!

Surprise! It's a bonus episode! That's right. We really hadn't planned to do a final round up of the year but Sarah kind of badgered Carla into it with a very specific reason in mind. The reason being, we both know how tough a year it's been for the both of us, and for many other small businesses and creatives out there. And we wanted to acknowledge that but also take a look at what GOOD stuff has happened to us both this year. We think you'll find this episode pretty cheering and hopefully a little bit inspiring too. It might even motivate you to take a peek at your own 2024 and see what good happened for you, too!

We were so wowed by Lorraine (The Painless Piano Coach)'s story from the last episode that we knew we had to talk about our own creative mindset and how we overcame struggles we experienced for our creativity. Like many of our chats, this one wasn't about answering specific questions but it delved into a thorough exploration of our own creative journeys and the things we overcame to continue them. Listen in for some excellent back and forth on this topic! As always, we'd love it if you could rate us (5 stars please!) and write a review for us on your favourite podcast platform.

We're all for showcasing something a little different here at Creative Reboot. So when Lorraine Robinson (otherwise known as The Painless Piano Coach) approached us and told us a little of her story, we knew we needed her to come on and share it all with you, too. Lorraine has been playing the piano since she was a child, and teaching it from a very young age, too. But the thing she loved most was also causing her incredible pain. Thinking she might have to give up doing the thing she loved, she found a teacher experienced in biometrics and now she teaches it to her students too. Lorraine's determination and resilience to keep being her most creative self shines through in this episode and we can't wait for you to hear it!

Inspired by last month's glorious episode with Stef Fournier, we decided to talk all about how our own personal brands have evolved over the years in this month's episode and it was quite the chat. Prepare yourself, we got all nerdy about branding in this one and we're not sorry!
