    Stairway Thoughts: Nourishing Creativity. Right-Sizing & Neurodivergence

    Episode Overview: Stairway thoughts are thoughts you have as soon as you leave a meeting or end a discussion. It’s some of the language used in Grey Box Collective to allow for ease of cyclical communication. In this episode, Molly shares the stairway thoughts that have creeped in since recording the majority of the episodes. It’s a little all over the place as a heads-up, but hopefully you find the meandering journey thought-provoking.  Support this work: All contributions are an investment in continuing to provide open resources for educators and artists interested in the intersection of trauma and creativity.
