The Everyday Creative
Podcast
At The Everyday Creative we believe that everyone is creative. Our creative acts often go unacknowledged and dismissed as daily problem-solving, but here they are celebrated.
The Everyday Creative has two goals: to help you tap into creativity with actionable steps and advice. And we aim to help you (and ourselves) consume less. We believe that overconsumption diminishes happiness and the ability to thrive. Creativity, on the other hand, can increase happiness and lead to a more fulfilling life.
So join us for biweekly episodes where we explore topics relating to creativity and consumption.
