    #156 Creative magic & neurodivergent joy with Sarah Cook

    In this episode of the Kind Business podcast, I’m joined by Sarah Cook, a creative mentor supporting tender-hearted writers and neurodivergent humans to build lives and livelihoods rooted in creativity, self-trust, and care. We talk about what creativity really is, why it matters so much right now, and how many people have been taught to believe it is something they lack rather than something they live. Sarah shares more about their own business journey, what excites them about supporting others, and how their work has evolved over time. We also explore collaboration in the age of AI, what kinds of connections feel nourishing and meaningful right now, and the deep magic Sarah sees in neurodivergence. This is a conversation about creativity as a life force, not a productivity tool, and about building work that honours sensitivity, difference, and slowness. Sarah Teresa Cook (she/they) is an autistic poet and essayist whose work explores perception, creative practice, and identity. As a creative mentor & coach, she works intimately with other writers and neurodivergent folx across genre. Her words have appeared in Rattle, Write or Die, Porterhouse Review, Oregon Humanities Magazine, and in Someone Like Me: An Anthology of Nonfiction by Autistic Writers. Based in the Columbia River Gorge, she publishes For the Birds, a Substack newsletter, and dreams of writing the “Before & After” puzzles for Wheel of Fortune.
