What if creativity isn’t about paintbrushes or talent but about the choices you make every day?
That’s the question we explored in my recent conversation with Elizabeth Mahusay on her podcast Thinking That Matters. Together, we unpacked what it truly means to live creatively—whether you’re running a business, leading a team, or simply trying to think differently in your day-to-day life.
For me, creativity has never been confined to the studio. It’s about decision-making, resilience, and finding new ways to see what’s possible. In this episode, we talk about how creativity isn’t just something you’re born with—it’s something you practice.
Here’s what you’ll discover:
Why creativity is really just decision-making—and how to apply it in business and life
How to move past limiting beliefs like “I’m not creative”
What it takes to turn your passion into a sustainable career
How reframing your past experiences can prepare you for future success
The power of persistence, play, and self-kindness in cultivating growth
Elizabeth and I also dive into my own journey—from juggling multiple jobs to becoming a full-time mural artist. We talk about how technology has become a surprising part of my process and how I’ve learned to transform challenges into opportunities.
✨ Whether you’re an artist, entrepreneur, or leader, this conversation will reignite your creativity and remind you that the seeds you plant today can grow into something extraordinary.
