Rethinking Creativity: It's for Everyone
Susie begins by challenging the idea that creativity is reserved for "artistic" people. She explains that creativity isn’t about having talent in traditional art forms—it's an innate human quality. Life’s conditioning might bury this potential, but we can rediscover and harness it.
The 5 Steps to Tap Into Creativity
Susie introduces her Five M's—practices designed to unlock creativity, build courage, and bring clarity. These tools help clear fears and make space for pursuing bold ideas.
Morning Pages
Inspired by Julia Cameron's The Artist’s Way, this involves writing three pages of longhand every morning. It's a way to unload your thoughts, relieve anxiety, and declutter your mind. Too much? Start with just one page and focus on the process, not perfection.
Movement
Move your body with activities like yoga, walking, or simple stretches. Physical movement engages both sides of the brain, unlocking fresh insights and clearing mental fog.
Meditation
Take five minutes to sit quietly and meditate. This helps calm the mind, reset your nervous system, and create mental space for new ideas.
Inspired Learning
Spend a few minutes each day absorbing something inspiring—whether it’s a poem, quote, or passage. This simple habit can spark new perspectives and ideas.
Making Something
Create something, anything—a doodle, a recipe, or a quick craft project. Making things reconnects you with your playful side and clears mental blocks.
Real Results, Bold Changes
Susie shares how these practices helped her overcome life’s challenges, write her book Buoyant, and even spend months exploring Europe while running her business. By clearing mental clutter and embracing her creativity, she achieved dreams she once thought impossible.
Tools to Get Started
Susie offers a free toolkit packed with simple, actionable exercises to help you build creativity into your routine. It’s perfect for anyone ready to take the first step toward a more inspired life.
