What really defines a creative person? Do you have to have artistic talent or is it something we can all express in some way? Picasso once said we are all born artists so where does all of that creative potential go? One of the sorrows of the modern workplace is that perhaps we don’t always get to use our creative potential, particularly in the rush to specialization. So how then can we unearth and develop this creative potential to bring about greater personal fulfiment? To help navigate these questions I reached out to interview Cathy Wild, a specialist of more than 30 years in the creative process and someone who works to guide people into their innermost selves to untap their creative potential.
True creativity comes from the still small voice within, the deepest part of your authentic self, your soul. As you release the fear and come from a place of love, creativity is revealed, unblocked and allowed. It flows forth with ease and expresses your individual uniqueness. It is not taught. In fact, the belief that there is a right and wrong way to be creative, leads to judgment and fear, which crushes creativity. Consequently, creativity is a deep wound for most of us despite the truth that we are all creative. As we let go of the fears, we discover life-changing truths about ourselves, including self-acceptance, validation and gratitude. Facing the blank page in your creativity helps you face the blank page in your life with courage, strength and ease. The creative process is also a problem-solving resource that will help you grow personally and professionally. Please join us Thursday to learn how to give up trying to control the process and to become curious and free.
