In this episode of our Creative Spark series, we explore what it means to heal the creative wound so we can fully embrace our creative selves. Many of us received messages in our youth that we weren’t creative or artistic, and we’ve internalized these messages in a way that stifle our creative expression. It’s important to recognize that these stories we tell ourselves may not be accurate, and that we can create new, more empowering and inspiring stories about our creative capacities. This episode, like the mini-episodes that preceded it, also includes insights from our book, <a href="https://www.syncreate.org/book.html">Syncreate: A Guide to Navigating the Creative Process for Individuals, Teams, and Communities</a>.For our Creativity Pro-Tip, we encourage you to reflect on your creative wounds (large or small), and the accompanying stories you may have around your own creativity, and start to craft a new, more empowering story that embraces your creativity. Credits: The Syncreate podcast is created and hosted by Melinda Rothouse, and produced at Record ATX studios with in collaboration Michael Osborne and 14th Street Studios in Austin, Texas.
