Summary
In this conversation, Gabriel and Pia discuss the power of creativity and how it can be accessed by anyone. They share personal experiences of how creativity has impacted their lives and offer insights on how to navigate fear and uncertainty. Pia emphasizes that creativity is not limited to artistic talent, but is a natural part of being human. She invites readers to challenge the myth that creativity is reserved for a chosen few and offers practical tools to reconnect with their own creative power. Creativity is an innate part of being human, and it is linked to our ability to tell stories and imagine. The brain has different networks that activate when we think creatively, including the central network for planning and evaluating, and the imagination network for making connections and daydreaming. Embodying creativity means being present and aware of our feelings, sensations, and experiences. Embracing uncertainty and curiosity is key to tapping into our creative potential and allowing for growth and transformation. Liminality, the space between who we were and who we are becoming, is a powerful and uncertain place where creativity can thrive.
