Tonight's show is titled: "Boredom: A Path to Mindfulness and Innovation.” When you are super busy, you don't have time to let your mind wander and solve problems. You just don't have capacity. The same can be said when you are holding on for dear life in Survival Mode. Having REGULAR downtime to dream, think and create is just what the doctor ordered, especially if you are stuck. Think about it: what WAS Sir Isaac Newton doing while sitting under that apple tree? He was bored, and an apple dropped right on his head. VIOLA! Gravity was discovered!

Whaddup, ragazze! If you are a creative girl - this episode is 200% for you!  I've always had that "shiny object" syndrome/slight scatter brain personality and I've always thought it to be a big weakness of mine. In our culture, we value kids who can just sit down and shut up and retain info in school and the creative brains are posed as less than the scientific and mathematic brains.  While all are important since we need scientists and doctors, I don't feel like we highlight how creative people are the one's that make the world beautiful!!  In this episode, I'm giving you the best reasons to embrace and LOVE you creative brain - even if it's a bit chaotic - as told by the study of Positive Psychology. If this resonates with you, please share the episode with a friend and on social media and subscribe, rate, and review wherever you listen! IG: @seannagregs

I vow not to make this podcast one of the hustle business type shows that makes you feel like you need to constantly grind in order to make money. Instead, let's focus on creating through art, allowing yourself to read fiction, listen to music, read poetry, or whatever makes you feel like a human!Creativity is the foundation of business and money making. I've never found that hustle and grind type of podcasts make me feel more creative, but instead I experience the opposite effect.

Rose Gabler is an author, speaker, and creativity coach. Growing up in a family of artists, she felt pressured to be artistically expressive but didn't know how to connect her innate creative strengths with her desired business goals. She began a lifelong journey trying to bridge this gap and faced many challenges in discovering a solid link. After acquiring her master's degree in Business of Arts and Culture, traveling the world for three years, and interviewing hundreds of people in various industries about creativity, she discovered that there were five universal contributing factors that empower our ability to be creative and to utilize it as a skill. She was recently named one of the Top 20 Female Entrepreneurs to Look For in 2021 and her newest book The Creativity Gene achieved best seller status in the first day. Now, she lives in Chicago with her husband and two golden doodles, working with entrepreneurs, artists, and individuals to hone their creative strengths and align them with personal and professional goals to achieve success.

You are a creative being.  So, what are you doing to support this vital, primal, core part of yourself?If you're anything like me, hardly anything at all. In fact, rather than building a village of support to surround and nurture my creativity, I've often burned the whole village to the ground. What's left is a heaping pile of creative burnout.The idea of spending more of our waking hours supporting our creative selves is the antithesis of everything we've been taught in Western culture. We track our every waking hour, feeling guilty about enjoying a fun moment, monetizing our free time, thinking about what we "should" be doing.The problem is, you aren't leaving time to feed your creativity. Which is what helps you be your best in work and life.In this episode, I break down an exercise that will help you start to fortify your own creative support village. You'll simply need a pen and paper to do this exercise. If you'd like to join me in doing this exercise as a group, sign up to get on my email list at CreativeCommute.com and I'll send you the date, time and link!

There's really no secret about our approach. We keep moving forward—opening up new doors and doing new things—because we're curious. And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths. We're always exploring and experimenting. At WED, we call it Imagineering—the blending of creative imagination with technical know-how.—Walt DisneyLillian Disney could sense something big brewing in early 1952. It was one of those times, she would say, when “Walt's imagination was going to take off and go into the wild blue yonder and everything will explode.” Walt began liquidating long-held family assets, borrowing against his life insurance policy, selling properties, and even selling the rights to his own name. Walt Disney was planning something new—he was planning to kick down the walls dividing his movies and real life.When Disney's children were very young, he'd tried to take them to places where their imaginations could run wild. But every carnival or fair seemed to be dirty, poorly run, and filled with vice. Walt wanted to create a place where people could take their family and forget the concerns of the everyday world—a place beautiful, safe, and filled with endless wonder. So at about the same time that he had started selling assets and conserving his capital, he pulled aside one of his art directors and had him begin working on concept sketches for a new kind of amusement park. The sketches started to illustrate the vision he had in his head, a utopian world where guests would enter a fairytale world.Ever since his early days as a Kansas City artist and animator, Walt had a unique belief in the power of his thoughts. As time went on, he became expert at manifesting his dreams into physical forms, often creating the necessary technology as he went. But nothing prepared him for the challenge of manifesting Disneyland—taking the imaginary world of his movies and making it literally concrete. Disneyland would transport visitors into a captivating three-dimensional story, a sprawling material incarnation of a wonderland that began as a vision, then lived on screens.Disney knew little about the experiential side of entertainment; his expertise and success was in storytelling through the mediums of animation, film, and television. To make his dream world a reality, Disney chose some of the studio's most talented individuals, took a small building on the Disney lot, and formed a new company, WED Enterprises—an acronym for Walter Elias Disney. This interdisciplinary dream team would be tasked with creating the design, development, and construction of Disneyland—not only doing something that none of them had done before, but that no one had done before. They represented an extraordinary group of storytellers, engineers, animators, contractors, directors, writers, artists, set designers, lighting designers, sound engineers, and many others. WED employees would interpret the Disney stories by building beautiful sets and giving them the interactivity and resilience to wow thousands of guests daily.The plans for the 160-acre site called for 5,000 cubic yards of concrete and a million square feet of asphalt. The designs included a replica of an 1800s main street, manmade riverbeds for steamboats and jungle cruises, a mile of railroad tracks, and a full-scale Bavarian castle. Walt was at the construction site pushing the WED team every day, giving his attention to every detail, every blade of grass, every leaf on every tree. As former Disney executive vice president and Imagineer Marty Sklar remembers, “The thing we worked so hard to avoid is letting people out of the story with discordant details…. Even the trash cans in the park are for that particular story or theme.” The attention to detail and level of execution were extraordinary. 

Have you ever been stuck, confused or lacking in ideas? For me, being trapped in these mental states comes down to a lack in one resource: Creativity! Whether you know it or not, you are an infinite creative being. The real question is: are you using this superpower?In this power conversation, I have a great chat with my friend Wendy. She is an author, ghost writer, teacher and master of how to generate that creative flow we love as business owners. What you may find surprising is that most of this comes down to your own beliefs and also your daily practices. Yes, creativity is like a muscle, and if you aren't putting it to work, you may find it slipping away. You can connect with Wendy on her website and join her writing challenges here https://authorswriter.com/https://www.facebook.com/AuthorsWriter/https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendy-s-70216439/If you want to join the engaging community of 1k+ heart-centered business owners who are all doing this inner work, masterminding around the latest business tactics, and collaborating to grow as one, feel free to use the link below:Join the Community
