  7. Interview: Author/writer Brigid Delaney (The Next Step)

    16.04.2024

    Interview: Author/writer Brigid Delaney (The Next Step)

    Brigid Delaney is currently a political speechwriter. She was a journalist for The Guardian, and wrote popular weekly column, 'Brigid Delaney's Diary',’ which we little a little about in this interview. She wrote that column for eight years. It is so good. Like unbelievably and consistently funny, it’s stood the test of time. Read the cheese story and the mansion story mentioned in the episode—they’re incredible!   Brigid also wrote Wellmania, the book that the Netflix series is based. But the main thing that Katherine and Brigid talk a lot in this interview about is stoicism, which is the focus of her most recent book, Reasons Not to Worry.  Katherine has wanted to speak to Brigid about stoicism for a long time. Brigid wrote an article about stoicism when COVID first started, and it felt like it offered a sort of solace that wasn’t anywhere else. The concepts are so useful, particularly for creatives and people putting art/writing into the world.  Check out show notes for this episode at katherinecollette.com, subscribe via your podcast app or get in touch via Instagram @katherinecollettewriter. This episode is sponsored by Fremantle Press and Marie O'Rourke's book 'Kintsugi'.

  8. Interview: (NBA, WNBA) basketball shooting coach BriAnna Garza

    09.04.2024

    Interview: (NBA, WNBA) basketball shooting coach BriAnna Garza

    It's surprising how much the discussion about thoughts and thinking in basketball can apply to creativity. This episode is with BriAnna Garza, a professional basketball shooting coach. She currently coaches players in the (American) NBA, WNBA (as well as the NCAA and youth players) on both shot development and thought development.  BriAnna is also the founder/owner of Shooters Shoot— a mentorship program that focuses on the same two things. The training model was inspired by BriAnna’s passion for coaching both the science and the mindset of shooting. Katherine first learned of BriAnna via Instagram. You MUST follow her! True to her philosophy, her Insta is half basketball and half thought development. It's super interesting and a lot of what she talks about can be adapted to the creative realm.  Katherine and BriAnna discuss A LOT including:  - neutral thinking  - the role of emotion   - visualisation - how to to do it and how to get the most out of it  - the importance of a 'culture of error'  - the Pygmalion Effect and more...  Many listeners to the show would have heard Katherine talk about Ben Crowe, BriAnna reminds her of Ben Crowe, except she’s young – not that he’s old -- and a woman. But she has a similar way of thinking that's about inspiring people to do and be their best and live with purpose.  KC is such a big fan of BriAnna and thinks you will be too, after hearing her speak.

This episode is sponsored by New South and Anna Jacobson's book 'How to Knit a Human'.
