Wildly Creative Life with Brooke Schultz Brooke Schultz

We’re all products of our environment, experiences, demographics and exposures. We often exist in echo chambers online and in person with others who are similar to us and agree with us, even our algorithms feed us content we’ll likely agree with. How we perceive the world directly affects what kind of art we make. So how do we bust out of our boxes, stop unconsciously copying our heroes and peers and blaze new trails? In this episode we talk through a framework that can be applied to the smallest creative process and the huge creative process of making a creative life.

Whenever I travel, I feel forever changed by the emotional signature of a place. From the crazy busy train stations to an unexpected lesson I learned from a tween in a picturesque garden in Kyoto, to a luxury jewelry store selling $40k pieces alongside plastic balls, to the harrowing stories of the A-bomb in Hiroshima, this episode takes a bird’s eye view of Japan through my experience and enumerates 5 lessons I’m applying to my creativity + biz so you can use ‘em to skyrocket your creativity too!

Everyone has to deal with clothes every day. Lately, when I show up for Zoom, people are surprised that I’m dressed + ready. But I like to show up for my life because it’s happening NOW, not when my 4 kids are older, not when I “have somewhere to go.” 
In this episode I defend getting dressed as an access point to becoming the person + creator you long to be.
In this episode:
How I used getting dressed to tune into the version of myself I want to be How getting dressed will directly boost your creativity (and lends some unexpected bonuses too) Using the science of getting dressed to support your creative goals  Mentions:
