In this episode, Pete, an entrepreneur, angel investor, and podcast host, whose superpower is storytelling and branding, walks me through how creativity has impacted his life and businesses. He and I both agree that Rick Rubin's book will become a seminal book of knowledge and wisdom -- a book of evergreen creativity -- and that its relevance will still be remain strong a hundred years from now. We both agree with the foundational tenet of the book: We are all creators. Creativity is in our DNA as humans, and it's at our fingertips -- and within our birthright -- to find out what it is, how to tap into it, and share it as best we can. Creativity should not only be left to the traditional creative professions -- the musicians, artists, sculptors, photographers, etc. There is so much we can create in our everyday work and lives, no matter who we are. We can create ideas, discussions, questions, moments, emotions, solutions, etc. Pete shares his evolution from his initial start as a technical creator to how creativity skills help him cast a ripple effect of awareness and creation, as a leader, throughout his team and businesses today. Without curiosity, you can't learn about yourself, others, or your industry, tribe, or group. The same way curiosity aims to seek what's out there, creativity seeks to channel what we can design and provide for others from ourselves. It doesn't matter what you do in work, business, or life, creativity is a part of you. It's a birthright, as Rick Rubin writes and Pete shares in this episode. We are all capable of something unique. It's on each of us to find out what it is we're here to provide to others -- for them and for ourselves. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS What drove his evolution from shy and introverted kid to stepping out from and into the light as a leader. Why, if you think you have something to say, and you think no one wants to hear it, you're wrong. The power of the Scientific Method -- for life. The lesson -- and growth -- in his apology to others for how he has shown up in the past. BOOKS MENTIONED Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us by Daniel H. Pink Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear by Elizabeth Gilbert The Net and the Butterfly: The Art and Practice of Breakthrough Thinking by Olivia Fox Cabane The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Pete is, Do you realize everyone has the power of creativity at their fingertips? What are you doing with yours?
