Summary

Before Maria Brito was the curator, art disrupter, and tastemaker we know her as today, she was working as a lawyer in New York City. She was unfulfilled and overworked, so she quit, and made herself into a thriving innovator and entrepreneur. But, what truly changed Maria’s life were the lessons about the power of creativity she’s learned along the way. As entrepreneurs, business owners, and employees, we can not underestimate the power of creativity. Creativity is the most valuable skill you can have. But, many people believe that you’re either creative, or you’re not. In truth, creativity can be learned, and Maria is an expert in guiding people to become their most creative and innovative selves. This is an episode you don't want to miss. Hala and Maria talk about Maria’s journey from attorney to curator and entrepreneur, the seven myths of creativity, why creativity is considered one of the most important skills to have in 2022 and beyond, actionable advice for improving creativity, improvisation in business, and so much more.
