Creativity Conversations explore the nature of our infinite creative potential. The definition of creativity goes far beyond just being artistic. Which means that regardless of where we find ourselves in business or in our personal lives, creativity involves finding new ways to solve problems, find solutions, come up with new ideas and be in "flow." This creative expression appears differently for an artist, a CEO, an entrepreneur, but it's essence is fundamentally the same. Creativity is a way of living with openness, curiosity, generosity and a sense of adventure. On these calls, we redefine and recognize the variety of forms of expression of the creative spirit through conversations with a diverse group of individuals.

Sarah Sylvester: The Effervescent Magic That's Always Present
Sunday Apr 25, 2021
Sunday Apr 25, 2021
Creativity Conversations with Sarah Sylvester. Sarah is a former corporate executive who left that world and has since become a full time writer. Sarah spent the majority of her career in male-dominated corporate environments where masochism and bullying were rife. Her drive to be successful resulted in constant self-induced pressure, stress and overwork which resulted in a public breakdown at work.
This forced-stop allowed Sarah to take the time to find her unique voice and learn how to express it through writing. She now sits with her knees up, notebook balancing and pen in hand, bathing in the magic and possibility of a blank page. Her first book, Miracle Angel Baby, is scheduled for publication on Kindle May 1st and she's currently working on a second book. She and her husband Martyn have a podcast called "Yeah, But What's Really Going On?" available on all listening platforms.
Sarah can be reached on Instagram (@sarahshowsup2019), LinkedIn (@sarahsylvester), Medium (@Sarah-47581).
