  • Working Class Voices with Charlotte Bradman
    A bonus chat with last week's guest, author and vanlifer Charlotte Bradman in which we discuss the current challenges facing working-class people and stifling their creativity. In a divided, expensive, technologically obsessed society, it's increasingly hard for those even with moderate incomes to make ends meet, to free up enough psychological safety to create, let alone those living from week to week, day to day. And because of this, we all miss out on rich points of view and different thinking. https://www.yellowkitebooks.co.uk/titles/charlotte-bradman/the-happy-nomad/9781399720588/ As ever supported by Illustration X https://illustrationx.com Work with me through the 'PIT STOP' one-stop creativity foundational coaching session now at https://thecreativecondition.com Access creativity resources, including books, a reading list, and 300+ podcasts at https://thecreativecondition.com Help the Ukrainian Institute's brave creative community during a horrific time of war at https://ui.org.ua

  • Ep 279: Money, Mood and Mindset with 'The Happy Nomad' Author and Vanlifer Charlotte Bradman
    Charlotte Bradman had to go through major trauma, including the repossession of her house, before she could truly access her creativity. Now she lives full-time in her converted camper van, and she joins The Creative Condition to share her story. In a cost-of-living crisis, under financial strain and facing much upheaval in our creative industry, designers, artists, writers, and all kinds of creators are struggling to make ends meet, but Charlotte has some wise words and a beautiful story to tell that might just change our thinking around money and the traditional version of success.

  • Ep 278: Sibling Rivalry co-founder Mikon van Gastel on running a creative agency in a revolution
    Today, change occurs almost constantly, at a speed never before seen in human history. We are in a technological revolution that some are likening to the advent of agriculture. Incomprehensible news headlines bombard us, and underneath it, we must still find a way to make sense of it and create for a living. Los Angeles and New York-based creative company Sibling Rivalry is a shining example of adaptation and flexibility in this new economy. Co-founder Mikon van Gastel joins me to share the agency's story. As someone who went into business shortly before 9/11, has steered the company through the COVID-19 pandemic, and now, like the rest of us, attempts to understand and move harmoniously with artificial intelligence, Mikon explains what it takes to keep growing and creating with joy in this crazed economy.

  • The Creativity Diary Entry 23: Impermanence as a tool for a better perspective
    As I continue to work on the downside of my high sensitivity to counter anxiety and overthinking, I turn to the Buddhist teachings and Marcus Aurelius' Meditations about impermanence after a sobering visit to my hometown. And of course, apply them to our current moment in the creative industry.
