Episode description

Today’s episode is all about having ideas. I think we really worry about having ideas - we worry when we’re not having them, and we worry whether they’re “right” when we do get them. Being blocked and in an idea rut is a lonely, scary and frustrating place to be, so today I thought I’d talk to you about how I get ideas - about the kind of mindset I’ve cultivated, and the kind of activities and questions that always help me spark something.

What I talk about in this episode:

  • Remaining open to ideas - and remaining curious
  • The power of metaphor
  • Topping yourself up with stimulus
  • Embracing the counter-intuitive method of idea generation through body movement
