About this episode
When you think of creativity, what comes to mind? Maybe it’s a disheveled Earnest Hemingway writing in a cafe in Spain. Or a prolific artist like Beyoncé who churns out hit after hit and sells out stadiums. But every single human being is a creative being. Creativity is about how you solve problems, how you put yourself out there and how you translate ideas into businesses. [Episode 35]
