In this episode we are joined by special guests Sarah Gillespie and Minette Riordan, talking about playing more and harnessing your natural creativity in and alongside your business.
Sarah is a critically acclaimed singer songwriter and guitarist renowned for mixing elements of jazz, folk & blues with her streetwise poetic lyrics. Having released 4 albums in the last 12 years, she has toured extensively as a solo artist & with her band, playing leading venues (Ronnie Scott’s - London, Blue Note - Milan, CBGB's New York) plus festivals in Europe and the USA.
During the 2020 lockdown Sarah started delivering online mentoring programs to songwriters around the world. She then founded the CreateNow Academy which hosts workshops, in person creativity retreats and coaching incubators for women.
Minette is a Creativity Coach for professional women who are ready to reinvent themselves and reclaim their creativity. Minette helps women remember how creative they are, how to play (again), how to make time for themselves and how to explore, create and grow so they may become who they were meant to be.
Deep play is essential to adults! In states of play we learn, problem solve, access our imagination and experience ecstatic states of silliness and glee. Minette accesses the state of deep play through expressive art making and experimentation on the page.
