My Top Hacks for Brainstorming Your Best Creative Ideas

This episode is all about better brainstorming! I share my own creative process and give tips for encouraging inspiration so you can come up with those big ideas. I offer several methods for coaxing your muse out of hiding: travel, movement, getting out into nature, and "following your obsessions." I also give my best tips on developing that big idea into a finished product through free writing and my go-to "question and answer" method.
