Summary
Creativity has never been more important. Art, creative expression, and creative solutions are required to create our future, and the world we want to live in.
This is session #2 of a 6-week mentoring series on CreativeLive to put our creativity into action. Though this series is based on the IDEA framework in my book, Creative Calling, you don’t need to have the book to participate.
Some topics we will explore in this series:
- why creativity, why now
- the creative mindset and how to de-program messages that are not serving us
- making time and space to create
- developing resilience and courage to share work
- finding and building a community to support and champion you
This might be your most creative time- or it might not. Maybe it's about reinvention, or maybe it's just about getting out of bed and dealing with the day. No matter where you are along the process, together we can keep going. We’ll start from wherever you are. Let’s cultivate a life that resonates, that feeds your soul, and brings you joy.
If you'd like to watch the video series, it's free on CreativeLive at www.creativelive.com/bookclub.
Enjoy!

| 0:00.0 | The world would have you believe that creativity and like a regular, robust creative practice, as in bringing creativity to everything you do, the world would have you believe that that's some sort of an indulgence, that it's a waste of time or that you should be doing something else like |
| 0:22.8 | jumping jacks or listening to talk radio or, I don't know, watching the stock market. |
| 0:30.8 | But the reality is that everything around you was created and the first step in creativity is imagining what's possible. So many things, |
| 0:42.9 | so many, so many ideas out there in the world. And yet there is an infinity number, |
| 0:50.1 | an infinity of things to be created. And nothing is going to start that creative practice |
| 0:57.1 | without your ability to direct your imagination, to think what you want in this world, what you |
| 1:04.0 | want for yourself. And that is why we're dedicating an entire episode to imagination. Now, specifically, if we're |
| 1:13.7 | familiar with the Creative Life Book Club, where we are talking about my book, Creative Calling, |
| 1:19.3 | then you know what I'm talking about. But this is an audio recap of the second week in this |
| 1:26.3 | six-part series of the book club. And in this episode, |
| 1:30.4 | we cover a bunch of things like imagination, how creativity is required for us to thrive, |
| 1:40.5 | the gap between where you are right now and where you want to be, and how to create a |
| 1:47.0 | narrative arc for yourself, and ultimately a series of steps on how to get there. |
| 1:54.8 | So if any of that sounds reasonably practical, duh, or at all, seductive, then you want to pay attention to this episode. |
| 2:04.7 | Now, if you missed part one, no problem. Haven't read the book, no problem, doesn't matter. |
| 2:10.2 | Not even know what I'm talking about. Absolutely not a worry. This episode is still going to deliver. |
| 2:17.1 | If the idea of developing your |
| 2:19.7 | imagination such that you can see who you want to be and or become the projects that you want |
| 2:25.1 | to make happen in your one precious life, then I believe you're going to get great value |
| 2:30.3 | from the next 60 minutes. So I'm going to get out of the way. But before we do, just a |
| 2:35.4 | quick word from our sponsor, Creative Live. Hey, oh, hey, new sponsor alert. So this episode of Chase |
| 2:41.5 | Travis Live is brought to you by Creative Live. And you all know, yeah, of course, I am the founder |
